Here I am....drunk again.......drinking PBR and.....black tooth grin.

(you gotta sing it slow and melodic in your head with a deep voice)

Apparently I have a bleeding ulcer. Hurts like a mofo and makes sleeping difficult. I recommend not getting one.

Looks like I'm heading back to Cali. Got a great offer at a firm in LA. Just putting numbers on paper as it's expensive to live there. I'll know for sure tomorrow

I got accepted to Oxford, I'm going to be playing polo and riding steeplechase. I'll post pics of London when I get there. Feel free to ask me all about it.

Why has the Zone died?



I blame the terrible content.


This place is worse than that really racist customer on Monday.

Works for me. Getting worried about the playoffs. The one good thing is the Suns and Mavs are losing when da Grizz lose. Can't count on that to continue.

Naw. It was this older gentleman and his wife. I walk up to greet them, with hand extended and he blows right past me. He says he wants to talk "this man" as he points to one of my older white co-workers. Initially I thought little of it, but then I started to realize that he had never work with the co-worker he demanded to work with. The salesperson the customer was talking to said he was about to leave, but that I (me) could help him. The customer said I'd rather not. My coworker then said that this gentleman could help him(my black co-worker). The customer again declined. We then found him a suitable salesperson who showed him around a little bit but wasn't very helpful. Customer left.

My white co-worker explained the whole situation to the managers and all of them were upset.

I was kinda hurt and shook by the whole ordeal. Not gonna lie and say I didn't fight back a tear. I didn't cry or anything, and I just played it off. I don't know why I was hurt so bad. I guess it was because I haven't been hit so bluntly with it.

I pity that customer, I pity his small mindset. I pity his world.

I hope you're not even considering living in LA. Cheaper living an hour North or East. Probably the same commute time.

They're everywhere Nerd, you just happen to meet one face to face that was open with it. I'm sure his small group of friends are the same or he wouldn't have felt so comfortable with it. Where are you working, I'll stop by and purchase a vehicle from you.

I understand that it happens. I just never expected it while selling Japanese cars in Knoxville. I've been to Bristol races, and parties where I straight up asked the bartender if I would upset any sort of sensibilities, and never got hit with anything like this. I wish I was stronger, but that junk hurt.

Stop by Mazda Knoxville, and try out one of our AMAZING Mazda 6s. You will be impressed how a car can be so efficient and FUN!
