You've been here for 3 hours and you're asking me now whats on sale?

Yesterday I saw a nice 25-inch tv in Quincy and obviously didn't think anything of it. When I got home I found out our living room tv kicked the bucket, so of course I go there today and its gone. Saw a great 20-inch for 35 dollars today in Davis but thats too small for our living room. I'm sure I'll come up with something soon.

I don't know what they are doing here but they keep changing this place around. This place used to be the book mecca, but they changed that months ago, and it also used to have tons of cds, but they just moved them downstairs and the racks were mostly empty. I hope this is just temporary. It still has the largest collection of vinyl anywhere and I did manage to pick up vol. 2 ( I already have vol. 1) of Gregorian Chant:

This place always seems to come through. If you looked in here you'd never think you would ever find anything.

A funny incident of a woman trying to steal a $1.00 pair of pants put me in a good mood, how pathetic.

What an odd item; a miniature bike fully functional. Says Zimbalast Smith on it:

For some ungodly reason, finding a parking spot here is like winning the lottery. I would have had a spot almost immediately if it wasn't for some ignorant asshole. I'm waiting for him to pull out of the spot with my blinker on while he sits in his running car and simultaneously eats a banana, talks on the phone, drinks water and jots things on paper, totally ignoring my beeping. Somehow, someway I get a spot.

I was psyched to find this record, Gustav Holst's The Planets is one of my favorites:

More vinyl. From left: Rolling Stones Out of Our Heads, Jimi Hendrix The Cry of Love, Jimi Hendrix Axis: Bold as Love (with the plastic still on the cover), and these two weird ones: Sound effects vol. 5 and vol. 2. Vol 5 consists of industrial and household sounds and vol. 2 contains sounds from animals/ insects/ birds:
