Flour Bluff is not a place ive thought of in 33 years

I lived on SPID back then
Oddly enough my boys were shooting today and my 10 year old asked where i got the Smith and Wesson model 1000....technically a Remington 1100 with Smith markings

I said.... believe it or not a Grocery store in Corpus called H.E.B.

Are those still around?

100 bucks with 50 dollar grocery purchase......Jap made

Killed many a greenhead

They were amazed you could buy a gun somewhere like Publix or Harris Teeter

They're not only still around, they're thriving and expanding all over Texas and into Mexico. They drove Albertson's out of south Texas. They are busy building their "HEB Plus" stores to compete with WalMart.

They have another upmarket store called "Central Market" in Austin and other larger cities in Texas to compete with Whole Paycheck (Whole Foods).

I wonder if they still call them Flour Bluff Idiots (FBI) with all affection, of course. Pat’s Alibi was one of my hangouts, a shipmate of mine had a key to her bar and we could go in anytime we wanted.
