My free cone day


April 29th is always Free Cone Day at Ben & Jerry's. Last year, I went with my buddies at Exam Services. This year, I'm going to try and convince some of my new co-workers to make the drive with me.

I'm kind of disappointed that not all B&J locations are participating! For example, the two locations inside of Six Flags over Georgia do not give away free cones. I can kind of understand the reasoning, but not really.

1. It's Tuesday. Not that many people are going to Six Flags today.
2. If B&J DID support Free Cone Day inside the park, I bet it would draw more people to visit this afternoon.
3. They charge over-priced cones inside Six Flags 364 other days of the year... why not give back to the community this once?

In other news:

I placed 8th last night in poker (out of 60), and I'm playing again tonight at Lance's. I am also considering playing in the EVE Online, World Poker Tour this weekend! It costs 1.05 billion ISK, and is limited to 18 players. Top prize is 7b ISK. Not too shabby, eh?

I was given a "You Might Be a Redneck If..." calendar for Christmas last year, and one of the best I've read yet was: You wake up early and still get to work late. In the words of Dane Cook... "it's funny because it's TRUE!"
