    Anywhere near Houston you'll get hosed on Insurance rates. Its a Flood zone. Houston also has some of the highest auto theft rates in Texas if Im not mistaken. Ive been to California, got family and in-laws that live there. They always complain about the taxes on everything but never leave. I don't get whats so special about it . oh well, to each their own.

    I don't smoke weed anymore. I enjoyed it occasionally before I turned Commercial Driver 16 years ago . That being said, I can't wait til they legalize it on a Federal level. Doesn't help if your state is Weed legal but you participate in a Federal Dot Drug Test. And now with all the strains of hella good weed out there... It'd be nice to enjoy some Indica Weed for all the stress and Anxiety Walmart is inflicting on me lately. Haha.

    Yes they are...calling it a bonus to shop in store instead...mgt is so screwing things up...they're too naive to even bother realizing why their sales are down...too much competition and if you treat your customers like garbage they go elsewhere...

    Great news! So does this mean Walmart can cancel their .38 special driver program, and all other planned changes? Since that was their excuse, lack of annual growth and all.
