Cigarettes, Pop, Chips

@Linerberry: It was painted, then it shut down suddenly. I think the big boys pulled the plug.

@Lorraine: I'm just the messenger or a Joseph looking for a manger (courtesy of Leonard Cohen.) I think of smoking once in awhile but I feel so much better without it, and i don't like the smell of them anymore. Miss Vicky's chips when there's a federal election, ginger ale when i go to a BBQ and have to drive. where would we be without cravings? We wouldn't dream, cold and stiff, "The Big Sleep."

@Zorilla: Chips we call french fries (except when we order fish&chips) the potatoes in cellophane bags we call chips, what do you call them?

@MadScientist: Maybe I got my ends mixed, but wasn't it when the computers take over.

@Observing: It was a small village, now absorbed by the city growth.

@Twelvebit: On the present route that I'm doing traveling east and west I pass a Wal-mart a total of seven times. I lose track (or want to) of how many times I'm asked "Do you go to Wal-mart" my usual respond is " I go to Main St. and Bovaird." Or if i feel flip since there are two in town I'll say "Which one?" I get all kinds of looks from the driver is crazy to I just don't know. After a few seconds and then a smile, "I go to Wal-mart." So my wife goes into Wal-mart, I go to the bookstore next door grab a coffee and a magazine. When the cell rings I come out as fresh as a boxer in the first round. On the way home I'll ask how was it, knowing that she'll complain about the behaviour of someone in the store. So as you can see Wal-mart has not only taken over the shopping market of Canada but also affected my work and homelife.
