A big sacker

A short while ago I drove up Dowlen Road in Beaumont for the first time in awhile. If you live here, I know you might find it hard to believe that I live here and do not regularly travel Dowlen, where all things retail are located.

I noticed the shell of the new H-E-B grocery store going up. It’s a big sumbitch. I heard when it is completed it will be the biggest grocery store in the universe — we don’t yet know about UB313’s — the new planet, or not — grocery structures as of yet. At least the Beaumont, Texas, H-E-B will allegedly be the biggest in the nation. Whether that’s true, I haven’t a clue. People always brag that their something or other is the biggest — park, ball of twine, or fire hydrant. Nonetheless, a fairly good amount of groceries should fit inside the new store.

I realize I am a freak, but I just hope the new store will also have a great volume of customer service. Because generally customer service is becoming an oxymoron in grocery stores and other retail outlets.

H-E-B has another gigantic store in Waco, where I used to live. It had a great wine selection and I hope this new facility will as well. Why hell, if it’s a really great selection, I might just get my tent and move in there. I’m sure they won’t mind.
