May 2007 has been quite possibly the busiest month of my life. Between work, Maxipads, my newest band The Hips, company softball games, working out, running a 5K (I finished in 25:13, bitches!), maintaining this totally bitchin vegetable garden (did I really just say "bitchin vegetable garden"??) trying to see friends and maintain a functioning, cohabitating relationship, it feels like I’m on the go from 6AM to whenever my sleeping-pill-induced coma hits me at night. Yeah, I know. They’re only temporary. Mama’s stressed out, ya heard? They make me loopy, and then I say funny things. They're recreational drugs for the faint of heart.
Anyway, the ‘Pads went back to Olean, NY (after last month’s sword fiasco, I swore I’d never go back.) But this time, people seemed to like us, and no one threatened us with weapons. Robbo got a sweet video of our encore song, “Kill for Satan,” so once that’s up on YouTube, I’ll post the link.
So for now, I’ll just entertain you with the following oh-so-American story (from the Associated Press):
MIAMI - A Wendy's manager was shot several times in the arm early Tuesday trying to protect the restaurant's chili sauce, authorities said.
A man in the drive-through argued with an employee because he wanted more of the condiment, police said. The worker told the customer that restaurant policy prohibited a customer from getting more than three packets.
The man insisted on 10, reports said. The employee complied, but police said the customer wanted more.
When the manager came out to speak to the man, the customer shot the manager, Miami-Dade police spokeswoman Mary Walters said. He was taken to Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital with non-life threatening injuries, police said.
The shooter fled with a female passenger.
"I did not know I got shot," store manager Renal Frage told WTVJ-TV in Miami. "When I went back to the office, I saw blood pumping out of my arm, and I was shocked. I was checking myself out and couldn't believe I got shot over some chili sauce."
Frage added: "I got shot over chili sauce. I was trying to figure while in the hospital why someone would shoot me over some chili sauce."
Thanks, America. Thank you SO much.

The right to bear arms. I think you should have the right to arm bears, even things up a little......
Jagoff should have given the guy the sauce, it would have not been a big deal. But hes gotta flex his "manager" thing and say no extra sauce, and he gets shot. See, dip wick give him the sauce, whats the problem? Now the problem is getting over getting shot.....For what.....chili sauce. Jebus !
He deserved to get shot.
