[OT] RE: South Square (was: RE: [TriLUG] Replacement mobo help)

[Robby Dermody]

Isn't capitalism great? :)

But really, this is insane. There's a Best Buy right down the street, and I
would think with the building of the new mall, this area would be saturated
with places to shop. Just the occurance of two Abercrombie and Fitch stores
within a few hundred yards of eachother makes me cringe the few times I've
gone to South Point...it's kind of disgusting.

Of course if I had my way, the mall would be demolished and replaced with a
high-powered shooting range, LAN party building and 4x4 track. Man, the
Durham PD would LOVE that. :)
