I'm not a walmart fan, but that was fascinating, actually. I had no idea they only got into the NE in the mid 1990s (I've been in NM for so long).

That said, it certainly doesn't bother me. The same animation for Starbucks would be cool, actually.
I always find it amusing to go into what I call the anti-Wal Mart: the Barnes & Noble in Bethesda, MD. It's the major chain bookstore closest to the wealthiest area of the best-educated county in the United States. I always have this bet w/a friend when we go there: how many hot Asian chicks, wearing tee or sweatshirts from prestigious colleges and universities, will be inside studying on their laptops? It's not a matter of IF!!!

(Hmmm...I think I may have written a post very much like this at some point in the past.)
