Yard Saleing, Calculus, and Carlin on SNL

   
Today was ok.  Dad is at the Nascar race in NH.  Me and mom have to hang with Jen all weekend.  We yard saled for most of the morning.  I got a present for Jessie, Hellcat Records The Give 'Em the Boot II CD,  The DVD Thank You For Smoking, the CD Elephant by the White Stripes and Tony Hawk Pro Skater II for N64.  I also the CD split Piebald did with River City High in like 2000 for $.50.  People keep posting that on eBay for between $2 and $4.  It is one of the last Piebald albums I don't have.  Then we went shopping around at different stores.  We went to the Christmas Tree Shop in Shrewsbury.  They didn't have what we wanted, so we went to the one in Natick.  Then we shopped Natick.  
    When we got home I checked my email and I got a 93 on my 5th and last Calculus quiz.  My current average in the class is a 73 I think.  I figured it it out mathematically and if I can get at least a 67 on the final I will get a 70 in the class.  I have to have at least a 70, so I hope I get that.  I really really don't want to take the class for a third time.
    To honor George Carlin NBC is replaying the first episode of Saturday Night Live, which he hosted in 1975.  Although back then it was only called Saturday Night.  It's really interesting.  Some of the sketches are weird.  Some sketches aren't that funny.  But you can definitely tell how revolutionary the show was at the time.  It seems so awesome that Carlin hosted the first episode of SNL.  He and SNL are so important to modern comedy and modern comedy would never have been the same without either.  They both radically changed comedy forever.
