.......I have heard several TV Landers worry about the upcoming hordes of people coming back from up Norte. The real problem isn't the actual numerical increase in population, but the population per resource (like road lanes and store items and hospital beds) ratio that exists in TV Land. The fact that people are worried is proof positive that the resources are inadequate. That EVEN explains the fight over NOT having new rental apartments here.

No, the fact that people are worried is that they spend too damn much time yapping nonsense on forums...

I work at one of the many grocery stores in the area. There seems to be the need to shop from 11a-4p. If you shop early in the morning or after dinner, far less cranky customers and shorter wait times. Please be kind to the workers, we are doing the best we can to accommodate the increased volume. I love the increase because we are scheduled more hours to work.

I'm surprised that no one has posted the message that "We are all going to die because of the renters"!

I agree totally, every year I hear the same ridiculous comments about snow birds.

A couple of items we regularly buy at Sams were out of stock today.

Did Sams not know we were going to be invaded by a herd of snow birds?
