Silver Spring, Maryland: whatever random thing you want.
I just had to spend four hours in Silver Spring, MD waiting for my car to be repaired. I had no idea that place was so weird. In the time I was there, wandering from store to store, I saw the following saleable goods or services:
- A frozen package of four (4) giant water bugs.
- Wigs, painted nails and hair extensions. (There were about 15 stores like this.)
- Plane tickets to Buenos Aires.
- An assortment of fully automatic assault rifles and high powered handguns.
- This vinyl album:
(In the bottom left it says, "A BIG BAD BLACK BEDFUL OF FUN - FOR ADULTS ONLY)
- A $1410 couch.
- Tickets to this movie.
- Sheet music for most of the works of Bach & Mozart.
- A harmonica.
- A whole eel, frozen solid, like a cold stick.
Of all the above, I bought two. Guess which ones.
