12 dollars for a 6 pack of tecate

 I have experienced my first price gouging in my neighborhood. My old apartment had a convenience store about 100 feet to the right of my fire escape. You can buy a 12 pack of Northeast PBR (Narragansett) for about $11. A steal, right? I love that place.

The convenience store next to my new spot? I hate that place. The title says it all. $12 for 6. Who did the math on this one? Get me outta here!

We apparently had the biggest snow storm that the northeast has seen in a while most of yesterday and part of today. All that remains is a brownish/gray wocky slush. That´s a twitter reference.

Stimulus. $600. Our country is..... ya know what? Not even gonna finish the sentence. There is no need to. But, what in the hell is $600 for a single person going to do for all that has been lost during this dagum´ pandemic? I mean, don´t look a prized horse in the mouth, but come on. Senate/House majority and minority leaders have been working ¨endlessly¨ to secure a deal of SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR EACH AMERICAN CITIZEN. WE ARE THE RICHEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD, AND WE ARE ONLY GIVING THAT MUCH TO PEOPLE? 

I am... at a loss for words...

What else? I stumbled a shoe repair shop and found a pair of very gently used Vans in my size for a measly $12. And even though the 6 pack of Tecate for $12, I am thoroughly enjoying my financial faux pas. 


Vans and Tecate for the win.
