my pad

(as in the commercial strip upon which i toil)

make a right off vets highway at the 7-11

1st left brings you in to:

on the right, the north end anchor,

"the grand buffet"
1 price all you can eat. (the locals call it "the pig trough " you should see the size of most of their clientele )

((although sundays between about 1:30 & 6:00 the place is packed with the coming majority dressed in their "sunday" best))

next door? a sushi bar. next door? a grand opening--"ghost chili" a tex -mex theme.

2 doors down? anthony's pizzaria

next door? a subway. next door? new york bagel co.

2 doors down

the amazon cafe (salads wraps and smoothies)

3 doors down.

the giant supermarket where i package meat.

5 doors down.

the thai angel restaurant

2 more doors down

the express grill (americanese or something like that) ((the locals think it is a front for the chinese mafia-there is never anyone in there))

next door. Whew!! we are finally at the south end of this pad.
