Well, let's just see how community minded Wal-mart is.  Down the road, a few feet away on Crane St tonight, wow, did you see how big that tree was that destroyed that house!  The reporter on Ch 6 stood in front of it as it was laying there, it must have been 7 feet in diameter!

Wonder if Walmart will come to their aid.  Oh, they might take up a collection expecting shoppers to put money into a fish bowl, they did that plenty of times.  But to take money from that store's funds, let's see.

speak up for the people rather than the politicos and their rich cronies.

Quoted from bumblethru


This is what a walmart in china looks like! Isn't that nice...China not only gets the stores with the low priced merchandise...china gets to manufacture it also!! Sounds like what the great US of A use to be like!



Do I have a great idea.   Wouldn't it be nice to have this pic on the inside of the Walmart fence?

Joann, that's great


I have one you can all help with

Check this out a neighbor of mine made when we were talking this morning.



Can you see it?

Now, how about Buddhalee's Ten Commandments.

1.  I am the almighty, your Buddhalee; thou shalt not have any other gods, buddhas, allahs, yahwehs, etc before me.

2.  Thou shalt not take my name nor that of Wal-mart in vain.

3.  Thou shalt keep the Sabbath by honoring me and shop at Walmart.  Thou shalt keep non-Sabbath days that way too.

4.  Acknowledge a mother and father, but honor me

5.  Thou may kill off my competition

6.  (thou shall not commit adulter)   Help me here fellow posters

7.  Thou may steal from taxpayers if it benefits your almighty buddhalee

8.  (thou shall not bear false witness, i.e., lie)   Help me here, friends

9.  Thou shall not covet my wife    (who'd want to anyway)

10.  Thou shalt not covet American-made products

Thou shalt not make fun of a Wal-Mart manager named 'Chip'.

And by the way, I went down Patton Drive today to check out the fence. And it is looking 'okay'
But I will say that the area by the fence has been cleaned, mowed and pruned. AND with the street being repaved, it looks much better.

Now come on..back to business...lets hear more commandments!
