Yes and no. When I lived in Cupertino there was a Fry's Grocery a
block away, so I shopped there. During this period the old man ran
his chain of less than a hand-full of stores and one of his sons
even carried my food out once. After the boys went to college the
old man wanted the boys to run his chain. They wanted none of it,
they thought the future was electronics. They were right. Even today
they are right. How's that for a mouse tale.<g>

Fry's, used to be a grocery chain.

the current name is fry's electronics, not blankmind's underwear mart, not bill's hardware mart. fry's is the best electronics store in the world.

i need to apologize for posting on the thread, i thought i was on the 3com thread, not the ghost thread, i am not yet worthy enough to post here.
