Tuesday's I Never Realized ....

Back at 11:40pm after taking a ride around town on my bike. The reason that I've not been mentioning about my bike is that I found myself a few months ago, or came to the realization, that I happened to be thinking of what to blog about while riding. Very unsafe. Only 10 percent of a bike ride is enjoyment, the other 90 percent is directed at keeping the focus. That's because any lapse in concentration may lead to dire consequences whether your thoughts have momentarily revolved around family matters or something intriguing or funny that you saw on tv the night before.


know something that I realized that I didn't realize until now. Walmart doesn't run advertisements in the local newspapers. I'm not sure if Walmart even bothers to stack flyers for weekly sales at the store front entrance. (more later, if I realize other things that I never realized)

They don't? Really? Are you sure? I guess I haven't paid attention to that. I keep getting them confused with Target. Hmmm... I guess they don't have to because their stores are always so packed. Sheesh!

Kay- I always presumed Walmart ran advertisements for specials, in da papah, but I haven't seen any. I don't read the print edition of the Honolulu Star-Advertiser, read it online, but even in the weekly publications (MidWeek, etc.), I haven't seen any Walmart ads.

I think WalMart is enough of a household name now that they don't have to bother advertising. People will just know about it by word of mouth and go there anyway.

Brad- I suppose when you're too big to advertise, or need to advertise, it ain't all that bad.
