    Asian American Violence

    I just came back to tell anyone who says that "racism is dead" or that "they are just words" can just be quiet.  They are not just words...racism is alive and well.  https://www.cnn.com/2021/03/17/us/metro-atlanta-shootings-wednesday/index.html

    Fry's Closing?

    I was wondering why Fry's did not put out a Black Friday ad.  Fry's was the always the big bad retailer when I was growing up.  The owners are bad people but the employees would be hurt. https://www.tweaktown.com/news/68666/frys-electronics-denies-closure-evidence-suggests-otherwise/index.html

    Amazon HQ2 and Government Incentive

    Obviously Amazon pulling out of NY HQ2 is big business news and I have been trying to hear from both sides about the situation...I honestly cannot decide whether one side is "right" or "wrong" I get the straight economics of it...25K jobs and potentially $25 billion in economic infusion into...

    Grocery Outlet

    I wasn't a believer in Grocery Outlet until we tried it on a whim a few weeks back.  It carries a lot of decent stuff at seriously low prices.  You do have to eat them relatively fast due to "Best Sell" dates but really good bargains.

    Who is brave enough to try this!

    Apparently this has been going on for awhile, I just found out it exists today. I never had Long John Silvers but fast food seafood  :o  Probably better off just going to Hometown Buffet or Golden Corrall if you want to go budget buffet.
