Congrats Rite Aid - you lost my business.

You know, if I go to a Pharmacy and they (honestly) tell me how long it takes to fill a prescription, I can make reasonable decisions on how I want to proceed.

I could choose to wait.

I could choose to go home and come back later.

I could choose to get my prescription filled somewhere else.

But in all cases, it's my choice.

But when you're dishonest about such things (like saying 'it'll take 15 minutes', when it's really 50; and then don't bother to even try offering a reasonable explanation or show any other plausible form of accountability), and then be all arrogant and smug about (in a store that had > 5 people working the pharmacy and < 3 cars go through the drive-thru), you are effectively taking my right to choose and wasting my time.

That's a mistake.

So dear readers, don't waste your time at Rite-Aid. They waste your time and they don't care. They arrogantly expect you'll take it and come back.

Get your prescriptions filled elsewhere.

Glad to see it's finally coming around: Mount McKinley -> Denali

"In August 2015, through executive order, the Obama administration changed the name of the mountain to Denali.^[1]"

I wonder what this will do for taking on Global Warming.

There goes the Right-Wing, derailing progress for the better for corporations, not people.

I agree - Bond is 'weak' these days.

As the guys says, this isn't a reflection on Daniel Craig; I think he's done a good job with what he's given.

But these extended origin plots; they are a waste of time.

007 isn't what it was supposed to be (although really none of the films really ever were, since they were set starting in the relatively modern era when they were filmed and not in the 1940's and 1950's as when the books were set)

Canadian Classics I recall.

Gowan: A Criminal Mind

Luba: Everytime I See Your Picture

So summer ends.

Yeah I know it technically ends in September, but really it ends when school starts.

Look - an idiot.

You know it's an issue when it's got its own Wikipedia article.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2015_Washington_state_wildfires

Wildfires across the U.S. state of Washington, including the largest in the state's history (pictured), destroy more than 200 homes and burn 920 square miles (2,400 km²).

The Okanogan Complex fire is an ongoing wildfire affecting Okanogan County in north central Washington state. It is composed of 5 fires that were caused by lightning strikes on August 15, 2015, with two of the fires near Conconully merging days later on August 19.^[2] As of August 24, it has burned over 256,657 acres (103,865 ha) of land and forced the evacuations of numerous towns, including Conconully, Twisp and Winthrop.

How lovely.

Great weather during the week; then turning to shit on the weekend.
