What new stores are you excited about?

That's neat! So you are playing against other people not just against yourself then?

If nerds enjoy playing games and especially board games with their family then I'm definitely one!

Sounds like I'm in good company too!

Pokie, I've played and its alot of fun! Especially if your in a small group, because you play against the other patrons-

When I was in Austin a few months ago, I noticed several of the bars were doing this too-

Maybe covered here already, but what stores do you need/want? I'll throw out a few off top of my head (and excuse me if you already have them) even though the population may not support one there, they're nice to have all the same -probably some things I'd miss if moved back to town.

Apple Store
Trader Joes
Lowes Foods/Whole Food Market (or similar)*
REI **
COSTCO***
Nordstrums

*in general you have some good grocery stores - but they seem a few (5-10)years behind in what's offered, layout, etc. Mainly going by Kroger and what's the other... Brookshires -so my exposer is limited. But hey, if the prices are good that's not so bad.
**REI would be a nice balance to the Bass Pro Shop. But build them far apart... in fact don't let them touch, it would be like matter meeting anti-matter...
*** compare SAMs. a matter of taste I suppose. Not saying one is "better taste" then the other, just a different choice. I prefer COSTCO.

Just received Morphette's one piece lavender ski outfit, mittens and two pairs of long underwear from REI online! I do wish we had one here, but I don't think the market is big enough.

Ditto with whole foods. Not enough wealthy liberals to make it fly. Most of the money is with the old guard republicans.
