A random assortment of my daily activities and ponderings. Maybe it will be boring, maybe it will be mind-blowingly exhiliarting. It is a grand experiment in exploring the brilliance of this thing those crazy kids are calling the "World Wide Web".

You Know You're at the North Carolina State Fair WHEN...

-The MC’s have to interrupt the opening act of the country
concert to announce the Nascar placements.
-Pork chop on a stick. Reasonably priced, though.
-The turkey shooting booth actually sparks a legitimate debate as
to whether people are shooting real turkeys or not.
-There’s a shady underground black market for ride tickets.
-They’re still selling candy cigarettes (no no, these will only give
you chocolate cancer…)
-I didn’t feel like the large blinking sign reading “Gun Fun” was out
of place and, quite frankly, I was a little disappointed to finally
notice “Water” in front of it.
-The carnies have more sexual harassment charges than teeth.
Carnie: Hey! Tube Top!
Cam: It’s not a tube top! It’s a tube top TANK!
-The sign on one of the rides reads “people of unusually large girth
will not be allowed to ride”
-The “homemade southern candy” is Fun Dip, and it’s covered in a
mysterious dusty substance. (Possibly more Fun Dip?)
-Only 23 of the 100-some rides passed the first safety inspection.
-The people running the games are just plain mean.
Lady: Come play Pluck-a-Duck!!
Us: Oh…what’s the theory?
Lady: (attitude filled glare) There ain’t no theory- you just pick
up a frickin’ duck!
-The words "cow" and "unicorn" appear next to each other in a sentence.
3 words: Deep. Fried. Pickles.
