One year ago today, I blogged about and posted pictures from the makeover a local 7-11 had undergone into a Kwik-E-Mart to promote The Simpsons Movie. That 7-11, like all the ones involved in the promotion, eventually reverted back to its former non-Springfieldian state and now advertises Slurpees and Asian Rolls (whatever those are) […]

Beerway To Heaven

I win! Steve didn’t post anything on Monday May 19th and I did, so I now have the most consecutive days of blogging between us! Woo hoo! Someone else can total up the number of days. I’m not good at math.
