First job ever: House of Louie. Then became House of Hui. I have stories. So I knew Humbolt Square when it was still nice too. Wow.

Ditto to all above, I have been driving around the cities for over three decades, (boy am I old) and these poor places seem like old friends.

I have enjoyed reading your writing.

Miss you and you are a link on my blog. You’re making me look bad, sort of like a dumpy strip mall. Hope you’re ok.

Hilarious! My first job in high school was working in this mall, and I remember when they came around and started painting it all sorts of garrish and truly colors. If you drive by the front on highway 96, notice that the mall is barely visible despite having a prime location in Shoreview? That’s because this mall was so bad that the city put up landscaping to block the view of the mall. Graffitti started popping up, the roof leaked, and the interior corridors of the mall were as cold on the inside as it was outside in winter.

While I do suspect the owner was indeed high when he decided to paint it, at least other maintenance issues were taken care of.

“The Dumpy Strip Mall Mafia got to her!”

She finally wrote a check her body couldn’t cash, eh? Sad, but that happens. You do not f$%& with the DSM mafia.
