thank you, come again

beautiful day, unfortunately im ailing. a horrendous nightmare would have been far more preferable than the hours purporting to resemble sleep last night that i withstood. and whats worse, i had run out of aspirin. so i just ran out to the rite-aid this afternoon for some advil and despite my dizzied demeanor i was still capable of price comparisons.

1) 50 tablets plus 50 "free" = $6.50 = $.065 per tab
2) 100 tablets plus 100 "free" = $17 = $.085 per tab
3) 225 tablets = $16 = $.071

the second offer had its own special display case abutting the advil section. thanks advil, i feel more special already.

cosp! update

"ESPN's Peter Gammons is reporting that an Alex Rodriguez-for-Manny Ramirez deal could be finalized within the next couple of days.
There are still several issues to be worked out, but a deal appears close. The Red Sox and Dodgers may have already worked out a Nomar Garciaparra trade, and according the Gammons, the Rangers will sign Todd Walker to replace A-Rod, moving Michael Young to shortstop."

punditz

"If Iraq is still going this badly in October of 2004, it would be a real drag on the Bush campaign. Yes, I said "this badly." One arrest doesn't turn it around, except in the fantasy world of political theater in which pundits seem to live."
