Weekend Observations August 11, 2008
Posted by notoriouslig in Breaking News, Miscellaneous.trackback
The first weekend of my vacation had me visiting my college roommate in Normal, Illinois. A few fun facts and a few observations:
- In Normal, a wrong turn leaves you smack dab in the middle of a corn field (and dealing with “Children of the Corn,” “Signs,” and “Field of Dreams” flashbacks);
- The Beer Nuts factory is not open on Saturdays;
- Illinois State University used to be a teachers’ college, with The Fighting Teachers as its mascot. I want a retro t-shirt with that on it; and
- When you wake up really late on a Sunday morning, it is completely appropriate for a not even three-year-old to mock you with a bright “Good Morning.” You just have to laugh when she looks like this.
