I finally made it to Whole Foods Market today with the rest of the TVA Saturday legion of chocolate-lovin’ mayhem. I’d heard some negative things about the place, but I’ve gotta say, any place with four kinds of organic kale is alright by me. I didn’t check out much of the rest of the place, but I managed to get a ton of organic produce for about 10 bucks. The selection is good enough to make going organic a viable option – up to now, I’d see maybe one or two things a week that were in the right price/quality region for me to buy at my usual grocery store.
Even better, I didn’t get a chance to eat any of the new veggies because AngelA made a kick-ass ass kicking curry that will gladly go to your house and kick your ass. It was that good.
Speaking of TVA and ass kicking, I forgot to mention earlier that the latest TVA newsletter is in my possession. So far the only typo we’ve found was in one of my articles. See, there is a bright side to not putting your name on anything. Still, we sold some books today that I haven’t seen sold in all the years I’ve been helping there, and they were ones we mentioned in the newsletter. Sweet.
…Insert contrived segue here…
I’ve come to understand why first year university students have such a hard time with economics classes. They hear this stuff about supply and demand, and how more demand means higher prices. I went to HMV today, and all the new stuff that gets played on the radio all the time is 10 bucks cheaper than the stuff you have to seek out. For those of you that are paying attention, that’s a whole backpack of organic groceries. Why does the stuff most likely to sell cost less?
As for why I was in HMV, I discovered a great use for Google Sets – put in the names of three bands you like, and it’ll give you a list of others that you might enjoy. This is something Batman would appreciate. Not the “name a band” bit, but the whole set technology.
