Resistance may be futile, in terms of keeping the Wal-Mart from being built. But if the neighborhood residents refuse to shop there, ever, maybe the corporate execs at Wal-Mart will realize they can’t assimilate everyone.

You know, I tried to be amusing about this when I was writing my post, but I found my sense of humor was gone. I love this neighborhood and the people here are really terrific. And I hate the fact that Wal-Mart is going to take an enormous stinking dump in the middle of it.
