I wanna free fall out into nothing
I wanna leave this world for a while
and I'm.....
I like Tom Petty too.
My friend, Bob Sacamento, bought one of those sign's you can get at Sam's Club. You know, the sign for a business that says "Open" You know, the red and blue ones.
Anyway, he takes the sign home, puts it up in his window and when ever he comes home he turns it on. When he leaves his house, he turns it off. The twist here is, is that he doesn't have a business. I mean, what is he "open" for?
I asked him this question and he said he didn't know. He said that he just thought it would be a neat thing to have in his window. He went on to say that he was passing by one of those "U-store it" places, saw the sign in the window that said "Open" and remembered seeing the sign at Sam's club. "I thought I gotta get me one of those things. That guy must have gotten his at Sam's Club. If he got one there, I must be able to get one too. I was worried that you might have to have some kind of license to show the clerk at the check out, but you don't! You just pick up the sign, take it up to the check out, pay for it, and it's yours. "This is great!," he went on to say, "I can be open to if I want!!!"
He tried to get me to get one too. I didn't or rather don't want to. I'm not a very open person myself. He tried and tried to convince me but I wouldn't give in. It seemed as though he was on a personal mission to get me to get one of these things.
Appearently he did make it his mission. A couple days later I come home from work and there is a package on my front door step. Well, it is not my front door step: it is my roommate's or rather housemate's which is really my landlord because I only rent one room in the house. Anyway the package and you probably guessed it by now, was the "Open" sign from Sam's club. Crazy!!
So now I have the "Open" sign from Sam's club. I don't think my landlord would like me putting it up. Plus, I think the neighbors would be a little concerned as well.

Well, if you put it up and always have it on when you are home and off when you are not, it could make you a target for burglars. Probably not the best idea.
that's what I was thinking.
He said it didn't bother him as he had nothing of any value. He is kinda like a budhist monk.
