I’m old. I don’t make/have much money. My fiscal future looks kinda spooky. All this, you could call a challenge.
Walmart coming to Eureka is sneaky and very spooky! (Where’s WalMart,” Aug. 11) This you could call a disaster … downright bone-chillin’.
I hope the guy lookin’ for really cheap underwear (some of you will know of what I speak) is very satisfied now. Ugh!

Yes, very scary indeed. If you say Walmart three times in a row before you go to bed, when you wake up, you’ll find a Walmart in your town!
No other corporation has as much literature, documentaries, lawsuits, and economic research proving they harm rural economies…as Walmart does.
And yet, so few Americans know any of it.
i hope walmart comings to the very boring poverty stricken rual nasty boring humboldt county
