Holy snickies.. (does anyone know how to spell that).
Half the mall was completely dark last night. Everything after Blue Light to the Amphitheater was pitch black. Did that freak anyone out or was it just me?

The Daily Progress reports that the owner of Sexshuns, a downtown mall clothing and shoe store, has been arrested by the Feds. Reynold George Samuels Jr, is charged with marijuana distribution, drug conspiracy, felony copyright infringement and firearms charges. Additionally, he was charged with:
50+ grams of crack cocaine
500 grams of powder cocaine
220 pounds of marijuana
That’s a lot of drugs!
Now, the question is, would you have thought?

From a little birdie…
Someone told me that they were walking down the mall and caught sight of some open air diddling last night…apparently the two wrapped it up and were left alone by the cops. I’m sure that people have had sex on the mall before, but it still strikes as a pretty, ahem, ballsy move for a Tuesday night.

I’m impressed with the tribute to Heath… It’s tragic, no? Brad Renfro died last week, now this. I’ve heard an amazing remix of the Brokeback Mountain theme. Movie themes can be pre-tty powerful. Yupster and I are fans of the cafeteria, she with the pumpkin vodka, I with… well I won’t incriminate myself.

As typical for a cVillain week, things got rather spicy. Last week was about banning things (trans fat, bumper nuts and bags) before Armageddon hit. Between our new mascot and the discussion about platonic boy/girl friendships, it was one of our most diverse weeks yet.
