BIG Fourth Weekend

I love these long weekends, even at 75, still on the go all the time.

Four day weekend, WalMart 3 times, life doesn't get any better than that. We can spend an hour or two, just walking around in the store. We know many of the "associates" now, many of the regular customers, and on a good day I think we could almost do three or four hours, and then go in the Subway shop, get a sub, and sit and talk for another hour or two, with everyone that walks by.

I've almost decided that when I die, I want my viewing at WalMart, just inside the door.They are thinking of offering that as a service anyway, I heard. They have a bank now, want to have a medical office where you can see a doctor or a nurse, a low cost WalMart funeral service.

They already have an eye place, income tax, beauty shop. It won't be far off, when you can rent an apartment on the second floor at a WalMart. Won't even have to drive to get there, just take the elevator down and there you are, "one stop shop and live" I think they have considered calling it.

In some states they are considering putting the store on the second floor and the apartments on the ground floor. The thinking on that is that in the winter the heat from the apartments will rise, and the store will be nice and toasty, thanks to all them old folks in the apartments down below.

Old folks do their shopping there anyway, why not let them live there. Even going to have a geriatric hospital instead of the Subway shop.
