What else would you associate social status with other than corporate labels? I'm just badmouthing people who associate putting labels on corporate labeling of social status. = P My hood doesn't "pop", it has manual latches (along with manual windows and door locks). I guess my label = poor.

Indeed. Like your School Bus Eating Evil Walmart Bridge arguments, but you will keep beating that dead horse until you find a new rediculous argument point.

or it will just be another 8 bucks on my water bill....

Trolls love bridges.

or the trucks can just drive on Heights. How do you know this is the "most important infrastructure upgrade needed". Are you just making things up again? I think a simple visible sign that states "No Loads over 40,000 lbs" would be the "sane" solution. You know that 18 wheelers drive on this bridge already... yet you drive it twice a day... your already endangering yourself. You should, like the trucks will, take Heights, its safer. As Red previously stated.... next complaint.

You realize that in this comment you are claiming the city won't do anything about enforcing the bridge load limitations (which you somehow blame Walmart), while trying to demand that the city force the developer to pay for bridge renovations. Let me make my point more clear... you are saying "but.... the city won't enforce this" while saying "the city should enforce this..." Your issues clearly should be with the city. Why not focus your efforts on getting the community behind having HPD enforce the bridge load limitations? I'm sure BOTH sides of the issue can support that. Oh yeah, you don't actually care about the bridge, your just looking for something to make walmart look evil. Go back to your RUDH friends and come up with another failed complaint.

or the trucks can just drive down heights, $9m saved!

BMW get away vehicles.

interesting... improving bacon, which can be used to improve nearly any other food (bacon wrapped steak/shrimp/asparagus/cupcake etc.)

maybe you and your pals should go stand on the bridge with a sign... I've seen several 18wheelers drive on this bridge. Oh yeah, you only care about walmart trucks causing an incident.

i liked king biscuit, but this comes as no suprise really. I always felt like the space was under utilized and could be something much more than it was. Hopefully they keep it obnoxiously colorful.

Your right, they are only 3rd in profit. Point still stands though.

I read somewhere that the next section will be started in 2012, but I can't seem to find the link. I wish they'd hurry up and finish the east/west heritage corridor connection, that will make downtown travel much easier.

anyone know when they plan on extending this? This to be a waste if no plan to extend the trail, its not even a half a mile as is. Would be nice if it continued south and went along the bayou to merge with the Heritage Corridor trail.

Electrolytes... what your plants crave!

I've got more information as well. If you are outside of the market zone (like the heights) walmart doesn't give two craps about which store you go to. They just want you in a Walmart. The more time you spend inside a Walmart the better is their mantra. You are the one thinking to hard, it is very simple. "Come to walmart, the first $5 is on us". Running out of options to fine renewed profit growth would be a bad thing.. if your company wasn't already the most profitable in the country. (#1 in 2010 according to Fortune)

The strategy is clear (yet you still missed it). Walmart is trying to get loyal customers. They want to establish a relationship with customers inside of their future market zone, so when the Yale location opens they will already have loyal customers. The business strategy is to get people in their store.

My wife and I plan to meet friends at Revival on bicycles, pick up Noms and head to a local park for a picnic. I have a feeling this will be a common thing for many people. Maybe they could put togther some sort of picnic package with small portions of jams and etc. with their crackel bread and etc. I went to this bakery in D.C. last time I was there called Le Pain, and they served picnic style baskets with a mix of fresh breads/jams/dips that were awesome. I wish I could find something like that somewhere in this city.

moo, i like to tinker with stuff so buying a house gave me a huge thing to tinker with. I personally think this whole argument silly, worrying about being bound to your house and unable to move quickly if needed. Don't buy a house you can't afford. If you can't afford to pay rent for a place to live and your mortgage, chances are you are stretching yourself a bit too thin. For my personal rent vs buy: Rent for a good condition 2/2 bungalow with 2 car garage would be very close to the same as my mortgage/insurance/taxes and that is with a 15yr loan. I didn't buy my home as an investment (of course i still tried to buy something that should gain value) but more of a piggy bank to hold part of my rent I would have been spending.

I'm sure my bimonthly bacon purchase is insignificant in the scheme of things... but the fact that I have a plan to go by there at least twice a month just for thick cut awesome swine strips is a pretty good sign I'd think. Anyone try the lamb? looked freaking amazing.

Yeah it is too niche of a market, just like you said for Jus' Mac... = P

I already have a whataburger within stumbing distance from my house...

good thing they aren't nearly that expensive hater! If you've ever been to a raising canes maybe you'd notice they are almost always super clean, very friendly, and their chicken isn't rediculously greasy like other places. They also tend to have dine in open late, which would be great for a location so close to Washington. Stumbling in to Raisin' Caines around 2:15 am after a night drinking at the bar was a great college pasttime. 7-8 bucks for a combo meal vs. what 6 bucks anywhere else? If you care that much about 1-2 bucks you really wouldn't be going to any "chef driven" restaurants...

We need a Raising Cane's

Yet you bring up the yard sign issue, which was posted back in June, before the revisions to the Historic Ordinance, and were admittingly made in jest to show the ordinance's flaws. Lame indeed. You are wrong more often than not, as has been repeatedly shown. When proven/shown wrong you simply stop that argument and move on to another one, rinse/repeat. You get a pile of responses because of your blatant disregard for your neighbors, as shown by your manic threatening rant in your "we won you lost" post. You aren't here for debate, you are here to troll.
