from Seth Roberts

I have incredibly happy memories from the Trader Joe's in Sherman Oaks.

In my completely objective and unbiased opinion, Trader Joe's people are smarter, funnier, nicer, and really, really, really ridiculously better-looking.; February 4, 2009 at 5:04 AM

Independent George said...: Hmmm... Flurry of blog posts? Check.

Random YouTube videos? Check.

Recipes? Not yet.

Conclusion: Catherine has another deadline approaching, but it's not yet at critical phase.

Meanwhile, George has two weeks of work due by Saturday, so he's making snide comments at KTM.; February 4, 2009 at 6:02 AM

I rank the small parking lot very high on my list of annoyances.

Also, the tiny aisles where only one cart can comfortably fit.

One particularly chatty checker told me that with only 3 days of work (and not full time), they get health insurance. This might explain their happiness.

And why so many "retired" employees in AZ!; February 4, 2009 at 8:52 AM
