There is a chapstick shortage in Mt. Juliet. Apparently it was caused by the city officials kissing Walmart’s butt by offering them a tax break if they would build a Super Walmart here. Walmart is already committed to building one in Hermitage, and said thanks but no thanks to the offer. We don’t need a Super Walmart here. It would just create traffic problems. No one is going to drive all the way out here to do their shopping at Walmart. There’s already a Super Walmart in Lebanon.
Mailbox baseball has hit home, literally. This afternoon I found my mailbox scuffed up. The mailbox homerun probably happened sometime last night. I’m not sure what motivates people to be destructive to other people’s property. Sewing their wild oats?
Note to self: Never ever ever ever pay full price for a Pizza Hut pizza. Always use a coupon or don’t buy it at all. Tonight I got a large meatlovers pizza for $11.90. The cost without a coupon: $16….outrageous when you take into consideration you can easily get a large one topping pizza for $7.57.
