Dave Thomas Died

Yay, I can actually post on Blogger today. I finally put up the winter template I've been working on. I had it finished two days ago, but when I went to upload it, I got a "working on template server" message. I haven't been able to publish posts the last two days, either. I've got to get my butt in gear and find another webhost--one that doesn't charge a fortune but is quasi-reliable and allows cgi scripts. Any ideas? Email me, please!!!

I'm supposed to be at work, but I'm waiting for the highways to clear out a bit. My car is warming up as I speak. That is one thing I'm going to miss about this job. I can do it whenever I darn well please. I wish I could just call in, but I already didn't make dough the day before yesterday. There was a sum total of 5 batches between the two stores, so I just left. No point in dirtying all the equipment for such a small amount. So, I spent the afternoon with my Dad instead.

Wendy's Founder Dave ThomasDave Thomas, founder of Wendy's, died on January 8th. He was cool. His restaurants will probably go to hell now, like how WalMart went into the dump after Sam Walton died. AutoZone also went down the tubes after the founder stepped down. Blackjack Pizza is going down the tubes since the founder handed over control to others. Notice a theme?

Well, the car is probably warmed up. I don't want to go today because I really can't stand either of the opening managers, but I had better get going...... :(
