Gosh, why am I not surprised about the guy being part of the McCain campaign?
I can't get the puppies cam to work, which makes me very sad on a day when I could use a little cheer.
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

45 more minutes until I can leave. And considering I haven't even gotten a single update since 3, I'm expecting it is for naught. OTOH, I think I'd rather be here unneeded than needed for this....

There was a full on puppy brawl just a minute ago. Now they're wandering around all dazed.

Oh God! One of them just flipped out like mammal! I am crying with laughter.

Bannister Mall?
That's the one. When it started to decline it went downhill fast. Sears held on for awhile after the rest of the mall pretty much went away and I went to that Sears a fair amount. I didn't think there was anything scary at all about the place when it was running at full capacity although I heard stories. Once it was pretty much empty I think they pretty gave up on security in the mall proper.

The mall was too big to survive on only the local population. When it opened, people from the surrounding suburbs and rural areas would come to the mall on weekends.
I think you're right about the size, that place was huge as was the surrounding strip mall area. It was really amazing how quickly everything shut down. For awhile it seemed like every time I went there the store I was planning to go to had just closed.

Although I went to Bannister and the surrounds stores a lot when it was there, the mall I most lament is Metcalf South. It was the Kansas City mall I went to most as a kid. It had a cool three story fountain with lots of bowl like things to try to toss coins into.
