Default The Store Once Know as 'RadioShack' : Would Like You To Call It"The Shack"

My financial patronage dropped off quite a bit after they ceased the
paper catalog. I used to flip through the pages and note nifty toys to
buy and evaluate when extra cash accumulated in my entertainment jar.
Nowadays I only stop in for an occasional fuse or battery with the
exception of an HD tabletop I got a few months ago they were blowing out
at discount pricing.

Hi Guys,

Just in regard to your comments, I must say when I used to live in the
States many years ago, I would often be a regular visitor to the good
ol' local Radio Shack store. It would be sort of a Saturday morning
ritual for me when my then-wife and I were out and about running
errands. While she was at the drugstore getting a few bits and pieces,
I would make my way across the sidewalk to the 'shack' to peruse all
the neat little gadgets available at the time. It would sometimes take
my wife literally hours to drag my keister outta that store to go home
heh. I wonder if that had anything to do with her now being my
ex?!

Kind regards,
BK G6
