------------------------------
Speaking of deals. I received a "flyer" on the mail the other day that
is promoting a product called a Eden Pure infrared portable heater.
Among the myriad of things it suggests the heater will do for me is,
provide me with a healthy environment AND -- and this is the best part
-- the heater will cut my heating costs in half.
Now then, I never have professed to be very smart. However, when I
receive something in the mail that says I can cut my heating costs in
half........ I say,.... send me two (2) and I will be able to heat my
house for free. AND, my friends, that's not a bad deal,..... even in
Norway.
----------------------------------
I could be wrong, however, I believe the latest "rumor" about a Grafton
restaurant being for sale is directed at the former Shenanigans Pizza
facility on the corner of hiway's 17 & 81. Actually, the property is
listed in the Weekly Source as being "for lease" not for sale and the
owner will remodel to accommodate any business venture. If your
interested you can call 352-1769, Terri will answer the phone and tell
you all about it.
-----------------------------------
As for the "rumor" about one of Graftons larger variety stores leaving
town. That,.... probably, is not true. Certainly not entirely true
anyway. However, the rumor regarding such an event certainly should give
the folks that have been trying to resurrect interest (pardon the pun)
to save the former Walsh County Bank Building sufficient reason to
exercise caution.

Question of the day:

We don't always get to see you,
Tho in our hearts you're always here.
