An sense of schadenfreude came over me as I watched a Chevy Suburban with a "W" bumpersticker pull into a gas station advertising $3.89 per gallon.

Aldin's sleep schedule

Aldin's sleep schedule is invented by Gimnazija Obala's student Aldin.
It means that person is falling into a coma after coming back from school and then not sleeping until school the next day.
In extreme cases, there is even no coma or nap and you just go to school the next day.
Nap's in this unique schedule are 1-3 hours and coma's are 4 and more hours.
This schedule is becoming more popular among students of Aldin's school due to the terror they are going through.

Schodack

A place where the cows an buffalo graze the fields and they can be smelled through all of Town. All the roads are top notch offering various sizes of potholes and randomly turning to dirt. Schodack Town Hall is the tallest structure, though only on floor is used. Several police forces guard this town, though it has next to no crime. Shine Time Carwash is the epitome of the sprawling business section, and stands on the line of the better, East Greenbush. The elusive RYAN KELLY can be found here.
Reginold: Oy chap would you like to venture to Schodack?
Rupert: Sounds simply divine! Is there a lot to do there?
Reginold: Absolutely nothing!
(both share a laugh because it's so true)
