Hmmm... I'll have to look into this place. I'm not familiar with it.

I didn't get permission from Johnny Morris' people to let me into the Ozark Mill. They don't seem very interested in helping out.

No one ever gives a damn about keeping stuff around for future generations... of course how do I know that future generations will keep the stuff around either... :cry:

Yep, sorry to be the bearer of bad news but I drove by the other day and saw it was pretty much gone. I was like "hey, I recognize that building! Oh wait, they're tearing it down... nevermind." I figure it's levelled by now. Any idea what's going in? Another trailer park store? 24 hour adult superstore? Church?

Maybe it'll be a strip mall with a 24-hour Adult Superstore AND a church.

We could sell tickets to the rioting.

There's a church for sale oppoiste my house... I thought about buying it and turning it into a porn palace, but city ordinance won't let me do that seeing as it's in the middle of a residential zone. Though I'm thinking about buying it and starting some satanic type-pagen type church in it (yeah I know I'm Catholic... you don't get much more pegan then us... we just mask it with the "beliefe in one god") If anything we could sell tickets to the rioting that would occure by the Ass. of God because they built the building back in the 1950's.

I prefer the abreviation Ass. of God. (I looked it up and ass. is the correct abrevation for assembly)
