First time I had ever been told that. Thought it was kinda funny actually. Not funny enough that I have ventured back over there since though.

In the '80s Cortana had a bakery that sold fresh bread by the slice. Delicious... Anybody remember that place?

I recall last Sunday evening a choir came in from town
And got up to sing a few old gospel songs
I heard him tell the singers "There's a song my mama sang.
Can I hear once before you move along?"

"Won't you sing me back home, with the song my mama sang
Make my old memories come alive
Take me away and turn back the years
Sing Me Back Home before I die"

This may be true, but I'll pass on the mall. I don't care for malls in the first place but definitely won't go to Cortana any time in the near future.

Actually while I'm sharing being in the wrong part of town, I apparently dropped my wallet in the parking lot of Lowes probably around the same time as my last Cortana experience, when it was pouring rain. Went back a half hour later after I realized it was missing and someone had turned it into the front desk. I'd say that generally there's a different group of folks at Academy/HD/Lowes than the mall.

I believe the plan is to turn it into an outlet mall.

Just that, you know, that's what "they" always say. Just, never to me. Have any of you whites ever said that to a black?

Oh well then nevermind

Look up reports on new mall development and the failure rate of existing malls.

The writing is on the wall even though you think your Christmas traffic somehow means malls are thriving.

Reply to this thread in January and tell me how that traffic looks.

Malls suck and I hope they all go away.

They won't as long as they still sell clothes.

Trying to find women's clothes that fit you is like throwing darts. This brand runs small, this one runs large, what does "small" even mean?
Doing that online would take much longer than just going in person.

That Dillard's is an inventory clearance store. It's my favorite store.
