Bedtime Stories

It’s Thursday night. It’s 8:30 PM. I can’t think of a better time than now to post my ‘Bedtime Stories’ for tonight – brought to you by Boston Market.

Today at Lunch time I took my car for a much-needed bubble bath at Busy Bee Car Wash up in Perrine. I’ve been going to that place for the past 4 cars and 19 years. They always do a good job cleaning it all up for me.

After that I went over to The Living Word Christian Bookstore in Cutler Bay. I spent a good half-hour there browsing around the whole store, and I bought a few items as well.

Lunch was next, and I ate at the Boston Market at the corner of Useless-One and Quail Roost Drive. They are very unorganized there as far as ordering, paying for, and receiving your food, but the utter chaos became a memory once I sunk in to that delicious food !

Well that’s how I spent my Lunch hour two-hours today.

Tomorrow on the blog I’ve got your ‘Friday Night Blogroll Review’. That’s where I ping some of my favourite blog entries of this past week.

Until then remember this:

Bedtime Stories

It’s time for the Wednesday night edition of ‘Bedtime Stories’ – brought to you by Cheez Whiz.

Loyal and observant fans of this blog noticed that for the first time in nearly 2 weeks there was no ‘Bedtime Stories’ posted last night. The reason ?  It’s quite simple. I couldn’t think of anything relevant to write last night – so I posted a fresh new edition of ‘The Chris Day Club’ instead. It contributed to the biggest Wednesday on this blog (as far as views are concerned) since the middle of January !  (In case you’re wondering I didn’t actually have that telephone conversation with Chris Day, but if I did then it may have gone a little something like that.)

You may have seen or heard this in the news. 69-year-old Dawn Wells – ‘Mary Ann’ from ‘Gilligan’s Island‘ – was recently busted for marijuana possession up in Idaho after being pulled over for erratic driving. ‘Mary Ann’ was hangin’ out with ‘Mary Jane’. Read all about it.

After Janet Jackson had to pull out of ‘Saturday Night Live‘ this week due to the flu they came up with a HUGE replacement for her – Mariah Carey – who makes her first appearance on the show since the mid-1990s. Read all about it.

Well that’s your celebrity entertainment news for today, and your ‘Bedtime Stories’ for tonight. May you have a safe and peaceful Wednesday night at home. Be sure to catch this blog again tomorrow afternoon for a SHOCKING ‘Thursday Night Internet Hoax Hall-Of-Shame’ that you just won’t believe !  The banana that you ate earlier today could be eating away at your flesh tonight !

Until we clear that one up for you remember this:

U.S.A. National Gas Temperature Map

Gas prices here in Homestead are currently at all-time record highs – generally from the mid-$3.30s to the high-$3.40s. You can complain all you want, but you should also keep in mind that some of the cheapest gas in the world can be found right here in the U.S. All of our European friends are paying more than double and nearly triple what we pay for the same amount of gas. Comparatively gas is a bargain down under in Australia. In Sydney the equivalent of a gallon of gas costs only about U.S. $5.15.

Click here for a cool colour-coded map of our country that shows how much gas costs per gallon (on average) in each county (updated daily).

Are you looking for cheap gas ?  Look no further than a large swath of eastern Wyoming and the New Jersey side of the New York City metro area for gas that hasn’t quite reached $3.00 per gallon (yet).

The ‘expensive’ gas – over $3.53 per gallon – can be found throughout much of California.

Bedtime Stories

It could be a dark and stormy night late tonight as a powerful cold front slams into South Florida. Be prepared for loud thunder and vivid lightning after about 1 AM here in Homestead. Weather-permitting ‘The Major’s Walk-A-Thon’ will proceed as scheduled tomorrow morning; however, if showers linger on through the morning hours then I will stay dry inside the comfort of my home. We’ll see how it all works out in the morning.

Believe it or not there are races going on this weekend at the Homestead-Miami Speedway. You can catch Ferraris racing around the track on both Saturday and Sunday from 8 AM to 5 PM. Read all about it here, or here.

Well that’s what I’ve got tonight for your ‘Bedtime Stories’. Be sure to catch the blog again tomorrow (Saturday). I’ll be here. I hope that you are too.

Until then remember this:

It’s a honey of an O. It’s Honey Nut Cheerios !
