good talk
From Las Vegas to Fayetville, Arkansas in l day 14 hours (many newcomers to the area are from Ca. seeking a better and cheaper lifestyle land is cheap huge parking lots). Took local bus 20 miles to Bentonville and Alice Walton's Crystal Bridges Art Museum emphasizing American Art and only open since November it's one of 6 best in the country). Alice is worth 21 bil if you add up all of the Waltons (from Sam and his brother Bud) they have more than Buffett and Gates put together and they did the right thing by leaving it e to their children instead of this Wimpy Dogooding. An employee told me that Alice visits often and is known for her humor her father's daughter she'll get the Art she wants for a minimum costs. Alice's 2 passions are Art and Horses (cowgirl stuff) and prior to her turn at a Cutting Competition Alice bid via phone heavily and successfully at an Art Auction while on horseback. Alice is a particular admirer of Andrew Wyeth saying how can you paint loneliness, I'd like to give Alice a Big Huggy for having this great Art Museum in the middle of nowhere all the current visitors are Arkies (except me). And I also did the selfguided Wal-Mart Tour which is in Sam's original five and dime Sam's competitors had a markup of 50% to maximize profits while Sam's was 30% to maximize profits as he knew you greedy little critters liked cheap prices. Sam emphasized buying in volume and nearby supply of products. There were returned items shown such as a tennis racket that was bashed in (didn't serve right). I ran my hand over the chassis of Sam's last pickup truck a very plain man Sam's only fun was quail hunting with his dogs the steering wheel shows their bit marks his keychain Go For It. I was on the Campus of the U. of Arkansas and was in Razorback Stadium and their Basketball Arena the U. of Arkansas is the best in Track in Field in NCAA History for an impoverished sparsely populated state Arkansas has done quite well in Sports Wooo Pig Sooie
