Stealing for Jesus

Lucy's pool seems to have expelled it contents.

I drove out to The Sandy to go fishing.

All the signs pointed in contradictory directions. So, I drove around in circles.

I eventually found a body of water, attempted to catch fish, lost lures, and blamed my lack of success on some noisy dogs splashing in the water near by.

On my way "back" I stopped at a lake/reservoir. While I did not loose any lures here, I also didn't catch any fish. I was eventually chased away by a pack of angry ducks.

At some point I realized that Roseburg has plenty of fishing. So, while I'm in Portland I should be doing city things.

This bumper sticker said something like; 3 nails, 2 logs, 1 Jesus, 0 fun. or maybe it said something else, I'm not sure.

Wherever I had ended up was not really anywhere near where I had planned to be.

On my way back to Portland I stopped at various thrift stores and stole things when I felt the prices were too high.

While these strikers with "witty sayings" are extremely un-funny. I do like the trashy-butterfly-lower-back-temporary-tattoos.

This thrift store was warehouse filled with mediocre crap. I did get a shirt that is not dissimilar from a shirt I already own. They also had an organ similar to one of the organs I have, only less good. They were trying to get like $200 for it. Like hell I say.

At a Goodwill or Salvation army I found a wood burning kit (wood burning is a hobby that society has, for the most part, decided is stupid. The kit comes with a soldering iron (wood burner), some patterns (there was one of people playing football, now that wood look awesome burned into a piece of wood!), and scraps of wood and leather (wood burners also work as leather burners). Anyway, I wont go into why I know so much/anything about wood burning, but inside the kit I found a scrap of leather that someone had burned the name Scarlet into, I think it was determined to be a failure because someone had gotten a little overzealous on the A. I decided that if anyone were to buy the kit they, most likely, would not want the Scarlet, so, I took it.

At the Goodwill I found a Pat Benatar tape with Love is a Battlefield and Hell is for Children on it and The Breakfast Club soundtrack. Goodwill (who are well known for their price gouging) was charging $2 a tape. Like hell I say. So I payed for one and stole the other.
