Q: I've written before about how I prefer Wal-Mart over Target. I can't believe how often this is true. The other day we were in there and had to return something, and it took what seemed like forever to accomplish this simple task. Now don't get me wrong - the Wal-Mart return process can take a while. And now you have to get the little bar code as you go through the main entrance. The line can be long. But they often have two or even three workers at the desk (depending on the location). At this store - one of the larger ones in the area - there were at least five people in line, and there was one person working the desk. She was very nice, but the line moved s-l-o-w. Eventually we made it up to the front of the line, and returned our merchandise and moved on. But it was a whole lot more difficult than at Wal-Mart, underscoring the reason why I shop there instead (usually).

Q: Check this place out! It's restaurant week and they have a great 3 course menu for $33!!!!!! I had lovely cauliflower soup, fabulous short ribs,and we tried every dessert on the menu. The service is great. I would put this restaurant in the same league as Beckett's or Milagro Grill.........we will be back! Yum!

Q: Delicious! Finally had the opportunity to try KoMex. The reviews are correct: the food is awesome. I think this a great lunch place. The location is not in a very good part of town, which probably explains why KoMex is only open until 8pm. It really is a hole-in-the-wall spot. Definitely order the FUSION burrito. I personally like the daeji-kogi (daeji= pig) with the kimchi also inside the burrito. Everything is fresh and the free chips/guac/sauce they give you are a perfect precursor to the giant burritos. For two people to leave completely stuffed our total bill was $10 and change! We ended up leaving them $16 just because we felt guilty that it was so cheap. Definitely try KoMex! :)

Q: Cirque du Soleil prices without the Cirque du Soleil talent. I kept waiting to be amazed by people doing things with their bodies that I can't do. That's why I pay you the big bucks, people! The costumes and music (of course) are fantastic, though.
