This is not an illusion

Took this picture while driving by in the car....which is why its so uncentered and blurry.

If you'll notice the price sign on the right side of the picture...Yeah...that's right! $4.79!!!! At a Rotten Robbie on Stevens Creek.

Mystery Water

Its amazing the type of trash that people will leave around the store at work. I'll walk around and find coffees, water bottles, gatorade, popsicle sticks, empty soda cans, candy wrappers etc. Thanks for letting me clean up after you!!!

Well, today, Jeff found an Ethos water bottle on the ground that was absolutely full...nobody had even opened it yet. There was no one around the abandoned bottle, so he obviously thought it was trash and threw it away.

The man and woman that I had just wrang up and left, walked back into the store looking for something. Turns out that was their water bottle.

Man: We are looking for a water bottle that we just left in here.
Me: Oh, yeah he just threw that away.
Man: Where?
Me: Umm...in the trash? (But figuring that he wanted me to go fish it out for him, I told him I would go check the breakroom.)

Turns out Jeff had emptied the water into the sink and then thrown the bottle away, so it was gonzo.

Me: Yeah, he threw it away in the breakroom.
Man: FUCK!
Me: Sorry!?

WTF man? What was so special about this water that he was in a frantic frenzy over it? It made me wonder if there was something particularly special about this H2O that made him pissed when he realized it was gone...

Did it contain a special powder formulation?
Did it have someone's DNA inside?
Is he on a special diet or taking particular medication where he needed this water right away?
Were they using that particular bottle for an art project?

They sell water at local grocery stores....so when he got so upset over the fact that his precious water had disappeared.....seemed to me like that was no ordinary water!?

Successful

Well, last night was successful. Sold 4 pieces, so my mission was accomplished. I really just hoped that I would make enough money to cover my expenses for putting on the show, and I DID!

Thanks to all who came out to support me! It was great to see you there!
