Hey Derek, you work at the card store there right ? Have you heard anything on the cause of the fire or the damages ? I went there yesterday with the kids and they were closed. Just wondering what happened.

Yep, same here. Went with the wife and kids yesterday and the parking lot was filled with the vendors selling their shit, but the doors were locked and taped off. Went back today, same thing. Then got on the internet, did a news search, and found that fire article.

I do remember reading an article in the paper recently where Benderson was toying with the idea of moving out of that shitty, disgusting death trap on Walden and moving into that plaza on Union and French. I think Ames used to be in there. Anyway, I hope they move ... I hate going to the Flea on Walden. My skin crawls when I'm in there and I can't put on enough Purell after I leave. Here's the article I just mentioned :

You do realize that pretty much all flea markets are like that, right? That's just what's going to happen when people sell all their second hand contraptions. If you want sanitary, a flea market is not the place to hang out.

The Walden Flea Market is the only one I've been to in my life and the only reason I go there, is because they have a wrestling action figure kiosk - which my son is into.

Oh that's fine. I go to flea markets every once in a while, too. You just have to realize that when you go there, the place is going to be filthy. Less than 10% of it is useful stuff. The other 90% plus is just vile, useless crap, which would probably cause aids, most likely because the seller touched it.

Bf, you're so pussified. It's a flea market...big deal, they're fun.

My friend doesn't know what happened...but he hasn't even been allowed to get to his stand, so he doesn't know if anything's lost.

Oh the good ole' Swap Shop

so your kid plays with dolls of large really muscular men? you should maybe buy him a dildo or fist toy for his birthday, I hate to break the news to you but he's a gay.
