Locked Out

[shanmonster]

So I was all set to go to the gym to pump some iron when I realized I can't remember the combination for my lock. I don't want to leave my wallet unattended, so I guess I have to buy myself a new lock. Curse my faulty memory!

In the meantime, I guess I'll work out at home, sans weights.

Wait! 18, 32, 24?

Nope.

In other news, my ticket to see Henry Rollins should be coming in any time. I'm really looking forward to the show!

9, 12, 24?

No, that's not it, either. Damn.

Link time.

I have my gym lock that I'm not using... you can just use that instead of buying a new one, if you want.

That would be spiffy! Now I have to commit another number sequence to my addled memory...

Wal-Mart strikes again! They probably wanted to install a WalMart mind-control probe in the kid.

As for the parrot, that bird is going to be one tough act to follow!

I think by hooves and toes, he means the dew claws. But even hooves are, after all, basically an animal's tiptoes, to draw a comparison to human skeletal structure.
