Just say no to 7-11

Posted on | November 25, 2008 | 2 Comments

Skabber twittered this, and now I know where I’m gonna be tonight after work. The next block up from the office, at the Premiere Lofts. There will be the Ballpark Neighborhood Meeting and on the Agenda, a 7-11 where the Monkey Bean used to be.

Normally I’m not opposed to 7-11s, their quite nice, sell frozen Coke, and all that. BUT I’m opposed to 7-11s where they might; 1. detract from my neighborhood, and 2. make my neighborhood suck.

The ‘hood has enough hobo’s and drug dealers. Hell I’ve watched people do crack from my deck in the space where my pool is supposed to be. We don’t need someplace that’s likely attract even more nastiness, and crime. If I need ho-ho’s I can go to the quicky mart in the Ballpark Lofts or the slightly scarrier mart on Larimer. There’s options, we don’t need more.

So, mark your calendars, tonight, 5:30pm, Premiere Lofts.

    [...] Skabber twittered a blog link, that was an Email from someone else. I twittered the event, and blogged it. Word spread fast. In the ‘old days’ word didn’t spread, fast or if at all. [...]
