Here is photo from my 2 hour drive home. It normally takes me 45 minutes, but as you can see the weather was pretty bad. It did not help that the roads were completely unplowed!

First Snow of this Year!
Well not actually this Calendar year — but the first snow of this season. I knew it before I even opened my eyes this morning at 4AM because of the plow scraping the tiny bit of snow off the road. They sure are crazy about plowing in my town!

Angry Dick's Employees!
I found this group on facebook today — I gotta say that it makes me not want to shop at Dick's! I wonder if the corporate heads know about this. They will now cause I am going to let them know.

Cumberland Farms Salami Slicing Its Customers &mdash 1¢ scheme?
On the way home from work today I stopped at my local Cumberland Farms to buy gas. I swiped my debit card and lied to the machine and told it that the card was not a debit card. I pumped exactly 10.000 gallons. Now my hand is off the pump. A few seconds later I watch in disbelief as the pump adds an additiona .002 gallons to my total raising the amount I am charged by one cent! I suppose the valve on the pump could be malfunctioning, but I did not hear any more gas being pumped into the car!
Now I really don't care about the 1 cent — but if they did to every one of their customers it would add up quick. I still buy gas there as it is the cheapest even after the 1¢ scheme.
Just as a warning to others -- keep a sharp eye out when shopping at Cumberland Farms.
Yahoo!! 3rd Season of Shakugan no Shana!
According Dengeki online it was hinted at the Dengeki Bunko Autumn Festival. If so I will be quite happy — that show has such great writing, artwork, and voice actors!

Awesome 404 page on Hasbro's Web Site
I love it when a large corporation can have a sense of humor and Hasbro's 404 (page not found) error page is a great example of it. It defused what could be a frustrating experience. I did find what I was looking for in the end too.
