Jim Black’s guilty plea for accepting illegal gratuties in the amount of $29,000 over four years is big news in NC but bigger news to me considering the locale of the crime. Corruption charges against political officials isn’t new, but making it publicly known that you accepted money in a bathroom in exchange for certain servies, political services in this case, adds a humorous twist to the story.
Sadly, Jim Black will join heroin/crack addicts, glory hole users, and men on the downlow as people who perceive their social deviancies to be so heinous that they can only be perpetrated in the confines of human excrement.

This is my first use of the ‘Press It’ function. The blog above discusses community pharmacy issues with the main issue being reimbursement and shady business practices of PBMs (Pharmacy Benefit Managers).
Apologies for referring to myself in the third person in this post’s title, but I’m trying to maximize the number of URLs with my name it in order to increase my search engine visibility.

Here are some simple things I look forward to during a normal work week.
Monday – Hot Yoga at 8pm. Profuse sweating combined with stretching and strengthening exercises. The music is also good. Nice calming selections from bands like The Shins and Radiohead.
Tuesday – I call the CVS automated Human Resources line to find out the amount of my net pay on Friday. A run in the evening.
Wednesday – A blessed day indeed. Harris Teeter posts the weekly VIC specials online. Frank DeFord reads his weekly commentary on NPR’s Morning Edition during my morning commute and I usually close out the day with a UNC basketball game at Picasso’s.
Thursday – Back to the Yoga studio. The Office at 8:30pm.
Friday – Various. You know, it’s Friday. Spend my net pay on dinner, movies, ice cream, popcorn, peanut butter, sleeping bags, the VIC specials that made it onto my list on Wednesday.
