Their chardonnay won first place at the 2007 California State Fair. I'll bet the judges
were chagrined to learn they picked Franzia in a bottle.
Their second store wouldn't be allowed to sell wine, which screws up their business model.
How do they expect yuppies to furnish their homes?

Nits, it's good that you raise these fascinating issues and provide
these unsolicited anecdotes. It reminds The BIG N of these important
societal machinations that most normal people hardly think about as
they pursue their own lives. I guess that's why the world has it's
share of neurotic, sphincter-locked, nut-case trolls to keep us

That makes no sense. Pennsylvania has several Trader Joe's stores. Not a
one of them sells wine. NJ has a few TJ's stores and as far as I know,
only one of them has a license to sell wine.

Of course we all die, but the big questions, are how long, if at all,
are the lives of health nuts extended and how much better, if any, are
their quality of life?

Too neat, too simple. You give Big Pharma too much credit.
We'll see. If the bans keep coming, you're wrong.

I have a bottle. Bought it in California. Haven't opened it yet.
That doesn't make any sense. Why should TJ give a shit?
But anyway my loss. Don't have an IKEA either.
They still don't have to be open on Sunday. Some weren't yesterday.
But they know they'd lose money to the competition.

All of it.
It's nothing but smoker rationalization from start to finish.
Of course I did.
Do you?

Charles Shaw, aka Two Buck Chuck. It's not sold in Colorado because retailers are afraid
to compete with Trader Joe, therefore there are no Trader Joe stores in Colorado.
Because we don't want to work seven days a week. We picked Sunday so we could blame the
closure on religion.

Well, now. It seems BIRTH is the biggest cause of death worldwide with
upwards of 56,597,034 people dying sometime after birth each year.
Interesting mortality statistics for the United States. Of the
2,400,000-plus Americans who die each year, over 45,000 are killed in
transport accidents. The number of homicides, poisonings, and drunk driving

I restored what I said, above. Boomers needed something, a surrogate devil, to hate. The
specific evil was not important. Pharma exploited their bigotry by nudging them toward
tobacco. Once the ball was rolling, pharma had a large supply of free labor, votes and
fall guys to spread their more egregious lies. If a lie or dirty politics were exposed,

Smoke detectors

Hey nicotine addicts, what do you do about your smoke detectors at home?
Doesn't your tobacco spew set off your smoke detectors? The thing is,
nicotine addicts would probably be slower to smell a fire then
non-smokers because their olfactory sense is diminished, so you need a
smoke detecter, but doesn't you set it off when you smoke?
