Panda's Postings

My mom's family owned and operated the newspaper in Post, TX from 1957 until my grandfather passed away in 1981. Everyone in the family wrote for the paper, including my mom (Susan’s Stuff) and my grandpa Jim, whose column was named "Postings." I never knew my grandparents, but I’ve read the old Post Dispatch and seen the town library my grandmother founded. So in honor of them, I write my blog, Panda's Postings, and hope that it carries on in the spirit of their paper.

Oxymoron

I was just checking out the website of the new Marketside stores opening up in Arizona and I came across this great line:

"Marketside is a small community grocery store owned by Wal-Mart Stores, Inc."
I like that: owned by Wal-Mart. Not Wal-Mart, just owned by them. We're just a li'l community grocery store fillin' in where we already put out of business all the truly small community grocery stores on our path to become the largest food retailer in the world.
