It always pains me when a long time rancher is run out of business. Many were homesteaded by working families who wanted to raise productive children and be good citizens. Many generations of effort went into taking care of the land so that the next generations could make a go of it.

When Ted Turner and friends succeed in closing the public lands to grazing, hunting, fishing, logging, mining, tie hacks...then the die is cast. It may take a while, but the family rancher and family farmer are dead.

Ted will buy cheaply at the bank foreclosure auction, then offer ‘sanctuary’ in his new lodge to his Hollywood elites at a high price...

“...then, as the police were leading the perpetrator away, the cashier said, ‘next time, pick a loaf of bread.’”

Thanks for the link :

Should Bruno Kirchenwitz have been fired from the Basalt 7-Eleven?

Amazing for such a left wing town.

[george76]

I see from yer home page you have watched “Eating Raoul”
Sick puppy! LOL. Good movie. Kinda like “Sweeney Todd, Demon Barber of Fleet Street”

Last year I moved from Orlando, a city where 7-11s are so common that two stores ended up on the same intersection, when the company bought out a competitor. Now I’m in Lexington, KY, where there are no 7-11s at all. Instead we have Speedway, Thornton’s and Circle K. Does 7-11 control any companies in Kentucky?

[SunkenCiv]

Sometimes I just pop it in to watch that scene where he goes to buy the handcuffs. “Trail mix?!?” “I was making a joke.” Pee my pants funny.

[SunkenCiv]

Dunno. Someone above said that 7-11 spun off / got broken up and that there are only quasi-independent franchisees now.

Mary Woronov has been in some other, rather odd movies. check out “Night of the Comet” if ya get a chance (Valley girls v. zombies. Zombies lose since valley girls’ dad was a Green Beret!)

[SunkenCiv]

Wasn’t she also involved in music somehow, before this?

[dynachrome]

“involved in music somehow”
could be. I only know her from weird sci-fi movies.

There are two different 7 - 11 ‘s ?

I once had a neighborhood convenience store called "8-12", run by East Indians, in Philly I think it was. That's "one-upmanship" for ya.

Speaking of great hats, I wear my Dr. Laura Logo ("Homo's are deviants") hat if I'm going out to bars, I'm not sure of the neighborhood, and don't want to be bothered by trolling cornholers.

Works great. No one's ever said they were going to shoot me, but I was once threatened with a spanking.

30 mil? HOLY SMOKES!
