North Salisbury Giant Will Close In November!



You heard it here first folks. This is a fact, Giant will close this November. The mega giant grocery store is calling it quits and will no longer attempt to compete with the super mega WalMart.

Let's see, great salaries, great benefits and a great retirement package to low salaries and next to no benefits! Once again the City Council and Mayor were and are clueless about this major loss to the North end of Salisbury and probably don't care. How many businesses will decide to close up shop because of piss poor management of the City?

Nevertheless, I guess it's time for another Peebles or clothing store. Maybe they should open a Bank of Delmarva Stock Store where the citizens of Salisbury can actually buy stock in a company they know for a fact will survive based on Government Officials alone?

Oh this is a prime location for outragedrichard to shine!

Back In The Day


Growing up in and around New York City, you sort of learned how to live a whole different kind of life and or lifestyle.

Sunday mornings were something to look forward to. Never, did you ever know of anyone who had their newspaper delivered. Everyone got up early and headed off to the News Stand to get the 300 pound Sunday Newspaper. Then you'd head off to the Bakery and get fresh bagels and rolls.

Mom and Grandma would be back at the apartment brewing an enormous Sunday special commercial pot of coffee and the aroma of slowly freshly cooked beacon was all over New York City!

One of the greatest parts about the Sunday paper was the Comics. I don't know anyone who didn't look forward to those Comics.

A couple of weeks ago I featured a photo of the Sunday paper where the Comics were in black and white and not in color. Today I regret ever complaining about it being in black and white because today I didn't even get the Comic Section of the newspaper at all!

No Comics, No Bakery, No fresh beacon, no bagles or fresh rolls. SUNDAY'S SUCK ON THE EASTERN SHORE!

Oh, and by the way Daily Times, I want my money back from today's paper! No Comics, no pay! Does anyone know where I can get a good deal on a plunger? LOL

Real Or Faux?


















With color copiers and laminating machines so easily accessaible today, who's to say these are real?

Is there a standard in their looks as well? I happen to know people that make copies of these tags and use them, (as I mentioned in another post). There are plenty of people out there taking advantage of them, what do we do about it?

Do we suck it up when we see a 20 year old kid pulling into a handicap spot and running into the store? Do we accept the two young 15 year old kids riding around Sam's Club in these carts because they're obese?

Don't shoot the messenger here folks.

They're Heading South Already?

















I watched several flocks of Geese heading south yesterday. What will the Salisbury Zoo do now if all those Geese leave the river? It will look like they have next to nothing left in inventory again. I'm sure they'll trick them into staying by feeding them more duck chow and then they'll complain again next year when there's too many Geese around and Jim Rapp will want to kill them off like last year. Do you think if they stopped feeding these Geese on the river that they might not hang around so much anyway?

Good Sunday Morning To You


You see, I have this special relationship with God. I tell him, I don't care about everyone else, I want sunshine on my property each and every day and he delivers. Now the rest of you have clouds everywhere this morning, right? Not me, it's nice and sunny where I live. Don't forget to fill that basket each and every Sunday and maybe you can get sunshine every day no matter what just like I do.
