classic nickelodeon


I purchased season one and two of "The Adventures of Pete and Pete" today on Amazon. If you are unaware, Pete and Pete is a show that aired on Nickelodeon in the early 90's and is hilarious. From what I can recall it consists of two red haired brothers and their daily lives. Within the show, Little Pete has a tattoo of "Petunia" which is a woman in a red dress who can be made to dance on Pete’s arm. Little Pete also has a personal super hero, Artie, The Strongest Man in the World. Pretty much the show is just hilarious, as I mentioned before. I strongly recommend anyone who is in need of a good laugh, to check it out. In fact, I'd even be willing to share my DVD's once they arrive. Which, if everything goes according to plan, should be February 4th. I am keeping my fingers crossed in hopes that the show will have a rating that will allow me to take it to work for the kids to watch. All in all, it was a great investment, I am hoping.

However, I do have one issue with internet purchases. Amazon.com has saved my credit card information, which has allowed me to purchase items with extremely little effort. In fact, I know for certain that if I had to search for me credit card and actually go through the effort of locating it and entering it into the site, I would 98% of the time not purchase the items I have stumbled across on the website. So kudos to you Amazon, for your superior marking skills which have caused me to make so many useless and regrettable purchases.

Ah, good ol' American capitalism at its best...the company saves your credit card info so it is more "convenient" for you. On the other hand, the self serve aspect of the American system sucks. Don't these businesses understand that some of us wanted to be waited on?

You must really hate my excessive use of exclamation points. They make up for the lack of voice inflection.
