ER

Used to be this crazy street lady I knew of who'd run up to women and scream right in your face YOU'RE GOING TO HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!! She was notorious. Legendary, even. Scary but interesting and sometimes even sought out in the wee hours by couples after the clubs closed to see if they could get her to charge and shout. An unkind but amusing game. Well, after years of being away from that part of town, I saw her on the news. She's medicated now, has cleaned up, and actually runs some sort of drop-in shelter. The change in her was shocking. Or so I thought. I found out second-hand that it turns out she told the reporter doing the story that if she didn't stop wearing makeup, she was going to go to hell. As each new day takes me farther and farther from my youth, it's refreshing that some things from my past never change.
What does not kill me makes me stranger.

I used to live in Sacramento, CA and work on K street.  Every day during there was a woman who would walk up and down the street preaching to people.  If you weren't kind to her she'd follow you commanding the demons to come out of you.  I remember one point some poor lady must have said the wrong thing to her because this woman was quickly walking by my store yelling "Get away from me!" then came the preacher lady "Demons, come out of her!"  Best show ever!  I did hear from some of the local cops that she'd be picked up for prostitution late at night in other part of town.  Sad but it really adds to the story.
This is my awesome signature.  Jealous?

Which kinda shock mount is better, the kind that screws onto the base of the mic, or the kinds with clamps that go around the neck of the mic? :buggedout: :hatred: :buggedout: :hatred: :buggedout: :lookingup:

I still cannot believe I passed out trying to donate blood this morning - especially when I've donated before with no problem.  I feel like the world's biggest wuss.

Never give 100%, you wouldn't survive with 0% of blood. :tongueout:
