You know, they've been reinventing the whole shopping experience for years, all culminating in the whole online experience we got. What will be next, you know, if you could see it coming? I just don't know that there is a next. I think, you know, we've gone through all the, you know, we've gone from the, you know, from the, you know, little local brick and mortar store that stocks, you know, stuff to, you know, the box store and the chains and, you know, and franchise. and everything everything was just some progressing and you know here we are now at the at the okay here all right I got to go ahead got to be real careful they've got quite a bit of a street here closed by my house I have to go against the traffic where they got it roped off just before I get to my house. I got to go about 20 yards against the where the road's closed against the grain to get to my street. So I'll be damned if I'm going a half mile around.

Otherwise, I'd have to go up to, I'd have to go up quite a ways and come back around. And it would add at least a half mile, if not three quarters, to my drive home. And all I got to do is go against the closed. But it says close to through traffic. Well, I'm not through traffic. So I said, see, it doesn't apply to me.
