Day 164 (11/24): Nothing but Crack

I don't know what my fascination is with butt cracks is but my eyes just seem to gravitate towards them in a crowd.  I chuckle every time I see them and then I have to take a picture of it.  I'm sure there's some kind of name for this disease - crackophelia or buttcrackology.  Who knows but of course now I want to share it with the world.

During halftime at the KSU games there's always games the college kids play to entertain the crowd. This particular game was similar to musical chairs and the players had to make a layup and then go back and stand on a John Deer mat that Willie the Wildcat would take away one by one.  There are so many thoughts that went through my mind when this was going on as this girl had a full 2 inches of crack showing. What did Willie think as she showed him her better half?  I wondered if the tv station that was broadcasting had to go to commercial with all the skin showing or put up a big black out line for that piece of crack.  But most of all I wondered where the heck her underwear was?  I can't imagine going commando with jeans on!  Doesn't she feel the air blowing around back there with so much skin showing?  Are her parents watching and what are they thinking?

Well I doubt we will be seeing any more cracks with this game that is played at halftime because the at the next game, all the contestants wore humongous John Deer t-shirts over their shirts to cover up any possibility of crackage!

Day 147 (9/20): Kohl's = Crack Cocaine

I now know why my Aunt Cheryl and cousin Kerri are Kohl's addicts. When we went up to South Dakota and met them, we met them at Kohl's and then I think they went back 10 times in a 3 day period.  They were totally obsessed with Kohl's.  Kohl's marketing campaigns and sales creates this drug-like feeling similar to one of the most addictive drugs available crack-cocaine. 

About every six weeks they send you a scratch off like lottery ticket that tells you a percent you get off your total bill.  They range from 10 - 30% off and mine this month happened to be a 30% so I felt like I had hit the jackpot.  I needed to get Colton some school clothes so this was my excuse to use that 30% off winner!  If it was 15% off I probably would not have felt that inclined to go but how can you not use a 30% coupon?

Now once you get in the store you are hit with 20-40% off the regular price signs.  So it helps to be a math teacher and know how to use percentages if you are taking 40% off and then 30% off of that.  Well I happened to save $304.

Now here's when they conform you into a true addict.  At the cash register they give you Kohl's cash to be used on your next purchases after that 30% scratch off coupon expires. So they are essentially paying you to shop.  Hook, line, and sinker...I'm caught up in the Kohl's addictive cycle because now I have to go back in another week and get my fix and use that $40 Kohl's cash coupon.
