I recently hung up one of my Marx Brothers posters in my basement bathroom. It is some odd promotional poster for The Cocoanuts that Ive never seen anywhere else, and the bathroom is kinda beach themed (it is the pool bathroom after all). Because of this I have been looking for a copy of Harpo Speaks, but have yet to find one locally.

I didn't realize "hick hop" was as big a thing as it is. Apparently, Walmart has a big part in spreading it, by stocking those CD's more heavily than other rap and hip hop in rural areas.

I don't want to like it, but some of the stuff is kinda catchy. I feel so white trash right now.

There's a reason Walmart has been more successful in rural areas than other major chains.

7-11's are the best way to go. There's something special about that cheap-ass chili at 7-11.

There are no 7-11s around here anymore. They left the area a long time ago. So the way to go here would probably be a Buc-ee's.
