The town of Henderson has a McDonald’s, Burger King, Baskin Robbins, Jack’s, Taco Bell, Subway…and (so I’m told) a Dominos, and a Pizza Hut. So I could survive here. Maybe. When I was here last…maybe about 8 years ago, they only had a Subway and McDonald’s. You’ve come a long way baby. You can tell that all of the restaurants above were built primarily because of college kids. Taco Bell is a main staple of a college student’s diet. You’ll note that there is no sign of Cracker Barrell, which I would term old people’s food. When was the last time you heard a bunch of college kids say “Hey, let’s go down to Cracker Barrell” ?
I’ve been told that the town sometimes really doesn’t like the college. Sure it brings alot of money to the town, but I’m sure that it has alot of influence in governmental decisionmaking. Is Chester County a dry county? I’ve been told that the local public high school doesn’t have prom…instead it has a banquet…possibly due to the influence of the town.
Todd doesn’t leave his door locked. I don’t know what his thinking is. Sure this is a Christian college, but so was Lipscomb. And I kept my doors locked all the time…actually the doors locked on their own. So there was no choice. It is 2004 and people, even some so called Christian people steal. Don’t leave yourself open for a tragedy in the making.
I think Ultimate Frisbee is in the making for today. Not sure what else. The town closes down at 9PM, while the curfew around here is 12:30. So don’t look for an extended night on the town. Might put in a movie. Who knows. Todd has no money. So I’m sure whatever happens will have to be cheap.
More to come later…
