At Borders there was a section of new releases. The top shelf had three stacks of BBM next to three stacks of Narnia. I covered all the Narnia, then went on to the regular DVD shelves. The Crash DVDs were near BBM (alphabetical order) so I went ahead and covered those too. No camera phone, couldn't take a picture. Haha, it would have never occured to me to do that if it weren't for this thread.

So, I did my part today.  I was out walking around the city with some friends and we went to HMV (I bought Jenny Lewis & The Watson Twins for those interested, lol).  Anyhow, there was a large shelf divided down the middle with one half devoted to Narnia and the other to BBM.  Well, when I was done, there were no visible Narnia's!  I moved about 20 dvds over to cover them all.  I took a picture with my friends camera phone, so hopefully she can email it to me and I'll post it.  She thought I was insane btw.  She kept saying that I had gone over to the "bad place", lol. 

nicole, are you a rilo kiley fan?  what do you think of jenny's solo album?  i think it's great, but i prefer rk.

Wow rtprod this seriously sounds like something I would do! I actually remember having a conversation with someone on the old board about dressing up as a ninja and putting stickers on all the BBM DVDs that said "The true best picture of 2005". Then the person got scared and never spoke to me again....I wonder if that person is on here?
A couple of days ago when I went into Silverscreen I accidently knocked over some Crash DVDs and then ran out of the shop.
But anyway I think me and Kelda should do this when it comes out in the UK. You up for a challenge K?

Let the Crappy DVD covering comence!

Yes I am a major Rilo Kiley fan.  And I completely agree with you - the JL solo cd is great (I really love her cover of Handle Me With Care w/ Ben Gibbard an Conor Oberst!) but RK is superior.  I love, love, love her voice.  Have you heard "Teenage Love Song" by RK?  It's one of my favourites and hardly anyone I know has heard it!

Also, thanks Ray!  You crack me up on a very frequent basis yourself...

We have a chain of grocery stores out here in California called Vons and they are huge major stores...they carry everything.  Well right up front where you check out it his shelve of new release DVD's and Narnia, Chicken Little and Crash were all right up FRONT and BBM, Capote and GN&GL was behind them so my son Dave & I, bold as brass, >:D stood there for 5 minutes rearrranging the display so BBM, Capote and GN&GL were up front and everything else was pushed back.  My younger son kept look out for the manager.  One woman stopped and said "that looks better already"  We cracked up!  Sorry no fancy photo feature on my phones..but thought you might like to know we struck our blow as well.

Heh heh.  I like how you're using your kids to help run block for your nefarious deeds, Vickie.  Contributing to the delinquency of a minor...if we don't teach the kids, who will?  Keep up the great work! >:D
