Friday Night Potpourri

• Finally, a Bud Light commercial is funny. Not funny enough to remember what it was about, though.
• Mrs. Scott and I watched the Miss USA pageant. I made fun of everything I could. My initial pick ended up as 3rd runner up out of 51 chickies. I visited the reading room during the personal interviews in the last round, as I can't stand to see beauty queens pontificate.
• My deskmate's father-in-law had a stroke. He has some speech problems, but seems to be improving at a rapid rate. Good news.
• I made a personal long distance call to somebody 3000 miles away. It's been a long time since that's happened.
• Mrs. Scott asked me to stop off at the store tonight after work and buy a few items. Ten gallons of drinking water, ice cream, M&M's, and a People magazine. I asked the checker (who was a guy in his 20's) if he couldn't tell that I was shopping for my pregnant wife. He had the perfect comeback, as I'm sure he's seen it all. He said, "It's okay if it's for you."
