Three things to think about this week:
1. According to an NPR report, there are 800,000 people inside Walmart at any second of any day in this country. The report also mentioned that people have been born, have died, and have gotten married in Walmarts throughout the years... makes sense if you think about the sheer number of people that are in Walmart at any given moment. Also according to the article people seem to be up to all sorts of other nefarious activities inside of Walmart as well.

very interesting...
2. If you call a hamburger "chopped steak," is it chopped steak or still a hamburger? According to the chef at school, it is chopped steak, but I want a second opinion.
3. How do you know when you're really in the South? I think you're in the South when people say ya'll and you can get sweet tea in the restaurants. My students thought this was an hilarious notion, as that would mean that Miami would not be included in my definition of the South. I know Miami is southern, but is it really in the South?
