Not funny.
Walmart is open and doing a lot of business - some of it mine.
My daughter says they couldn't keep items on the shelves.
So, LOL on you!

Praising WalMart is essentially un-American. I cannot think of any other company that has killed small America and small business more than Wal-Mart. As a patriotic citizen I refuse to go there on most days and definitely not the 4th.
Ask small town Kansas store owners why they are no longer in business and most will tell you they went out of business after WalMart came to town.
Wal-Mart = wolf in sheeps clothing. They look American, "support" America, and have swiftly killed America.
