you know why four plus minus one plus ten is fourteen minus one? 'cause addition is commutative!

These are for [livejournal.com profile] february_sea, 'cause I adore her and it's her birfday. And anyone else who wants 'em, as well, but she inspired the uploads.

Did you know that the whole Dels thing was v. v. controversial?

From the Quahog.org website:

1997 was especially contentious: in June a joint promotion with Del's Lemonade almost came to a halt when city building officials decided that the huge cup of lemonade gripped by Big Blue was technically a billboard, because the product it advertised was not actually sold on the premises. Intervention by Mayor Buddy Cianci allowed the gargantuan drink to remain on the roof until an appeal could reach the Zoning Board, by which time the promotion was over anyway. "We're not pardoning Jack the Ripper here," Cianci is reported to have said, "It's a bug, and it's been our friend for years."

Despite his whole convicted felon status, I can't get the schmoopy affection for Buddy Cianci out of my soul. Because he may be a felon, but he's also a w00bie. And now they're making a movie out of The Prince of Providence! I cannot wait. :)
