Pardon?
There are a lot of things in life I don't understand.
Religious wars.
Climate change.
The appeal of plaid shorts on men.
How Brett Favre can quit his job twice and still get it back ... with a raise, no less.
Why I can remember the names of the actors in "Basic" (even Giovanni Ribisi, before he was in "Avatar") but can't remember the steps to the citric acid cycle overnight.
[While I'm thinking about "Avatar," why in the world they chose to name their element "unobtainium" when so many of their target population were going to roll their eyes and/or snicker at said name. I know my friends and I exchanged incredulous looks for a moment. Totally threw me off track for a few minutes.]
What's baffling me today is why the Taco Bell that recently re-opened has a perpetual line. It's just a Taco Bell. Granted it's much less creepy than the one that previously stood there -- but it's still just a Taco Bell.
Really, I never fully understand the beating-a-path-to-the-door-of-a-new-restaurant thing, although it's a pretty basic phenomenon here. I get wanting to try a new place. And I get why something fresh and new can be popular.
But it's a Taco Bell.
Sheesh.
Religious wars.
