Received some discouraging news about the North Texas economy....

A friend with a concession at one of the state's largest flea

markets, called Traders Village, Grand Prairie :

tradersvillage.com

said tonight around 40 % of the dealers there have closed their

shops, from 2,500 dealers to only 1,500 he estimates.

I asked, "Is Christmas season late this year?"

He answered, "No, this Christmas looks horrible, and I'm so

discouraged."

(I've noticed the malls here are doing poorly this year, but

I thought a flea market would do fairly well.)
