Saw an ad recently that detailed a promotion from Holiday Inn and Holiday Inn Express that if you stay 8 nights in one of their hotels you will receive two tickets to a Major League Baseball game. Wouldn't it be alot cheaper just to buy a couple of game tickets?
Not that gasoline is cheap this summer, but this time last year, gas prices were significantly higher. People everywhere were talking about hybrid vehicles and battery-powered vehicle options. Not so much right now. And while I'm sure auto engineers continue to work on more energy and environment friendly methods, it's amazing how our focus changes based on market conditions (or gasoline prices).
Glad to have low-cost air carriers (Allegiant and Air Tran) in Knoxville.
Was visiting a church member at UT Hospital this afternoon. As I was leaving her room on the 8th floor, I saw an oversized, extra-wide wheelchair at the end of the hallway. On the back of the blue vinyl seat, spray painted in white stenciled letters, was the word "BEAST". That seemed odd to me and fairly inappropriate that the hospital staff would give a nickname to a wheelchair for plus-sized patients. As I got closer to the chair, I realized the chair said "8EAST" not "BEAST".
One night this week during dinner, our 5 year old asked, "How can we use a fork and eat if we can't see our mouth?" Never really thought about that before.
