Who Needs The Kwik-E-Mart? I Do.

Friday night was a fun night. My brother Alex cam into the city and we went to the 7-11 turned Kwik-E-Mart to check out what they'd done. It was pretty funny. They had a frozen Jasper in the ice freezer. They were all out of Buzz Cola and Krusty-O's, but I did manage to get a Squishee:

I also posed next to Homer:

After that, we went down to the Sunshine Theater and saw Ghostbusters on the big screen, which was hysterical and awesome (hysterisome?). The theater was full and the crowd was pretty into it, reciting lines, having fun. An enjoyable experience. In two weeks, it's Back to the Future.

Homer? I Hardly Know 'Er!

The Chicago Tribune blog Red Eye has a bracket-style tourney to figure out who the best Simpsons character is.

I think the match of the first round is Lisa Simpson vs. Nelson Muntz, and Comic Book Guy vs. Apu will probably we the closest. I don't see Homer losing this. He's got to be the 1-seed here.

Also, I consider myself among the biggest Simpsons fans around, but I had no idea that Otto's last name is Mann.
