If I Must
At the grocery store, we bought some of these for the boy:
It's just dried pieces of apple. After we got home, the package was sitting on our counter. I was doing something completely unrelated when I noticed this on the back (this photo is Photoshop-free):
I guess they're not for the boy after all. Just as well, they're pretty tasty.

It's fate. The poor boy, will never know the true delights of dried apples.

Too bad it's not a beer.

You really don't want to know how long it took me to figure this one out... Just know that my parents aren't talking to me, my sisters want nothing to do with me and Uncle Sam is no longer recruiting me... Do you have any idea how hard it is to get Uncle Sam to back off?

Wow. Advertising has become so specific. Maybe I'm not as "for personalization" as I was five minutes ago.
One gripe, though. That's kinda tiny. I may be missing hoards of personalized almost-food at the stores. I need my own aisle, I think, not just packages with a name on it.

Wow, that is quite amazing. It is as if God is telling you something about your life. *clouds magestically part* (OMAR PHILLIPS! YOU SHALL HAVE A CAREER IN THE CEREAL INDUSTRY) *clouds merge back together*

But...umm...how do you know you are THE "1 Omar?"
Well, wait- I guess you *are* the one (and only) Omar to us, your loyal readership.

Ugh, I feel like an idiot. I have spent like forever trying to figure that out. TY jedith for further explaining, hehe. Oh hey... omar... you like Dooce.. you should check out http://leahpeah.com/blog/index.php She's pretty funny too, and it will give you a nice scary sneak preview of what to expect from the boy.

if that's not a sign from God...i have no idea what is...

I'm like, the chosen one. 1 OMAR. I still can't figure where the 06 fits in. All I know is that Gerber Mini-Fruits found me for a reason.
Now I'm headed back to the grocery store to see what else was meant for me. If I see anything with any of your names, I'll pick it up for you.

I don't know what the check means and I'm uncomfortable accepting public opinion as truth.

I have a guess about the checkmark. I think it means that the bloggers so designated, such as myself, are also parents. Is that it? Not as glamourous as being 1 million dollar winners, nor as evil as being Republican-owned, nor as edgy as being X-rated. But that's life as a parent in a nutshell: broke, boring and G-rated.
Jackie said:
Yay I get to be smart for once... it means you have visted that site before. Like for instance, I had only ever been to Dooce so it was the only one with a check, then I clicked on Cadiz's site, came back and now Cadiz has a check next to their name. :)

Ooooh, *now* I get it.

Right, sites visited. Um, no.
Apparently still has some tracking limitations if you know what I mean. But that's just the jealousy talking, don't mind me.
