Hmm.. Richland County to Buy Decker Mall   12 comments

Posted at 1:31 am in Uncategorized

The State:

Richland County plans to buy a strip mall on Decker Boulevard and relocate yet-to-be-determined offices there as a way to address a cramped courthouse and administrative offices.

This, of course, is the former home of Kroger Sav-On, Land of Oz, Little China Buffet, Richway/Gold Circle/Target, Flipside and many other things over the years.

Well, assuming that no real news breaks this evening, there's supposed to be a piece on the WLTX late news for 1 March 2011 dramatically demonstrating why I don't have any pictures of myself on the site.

If that brings you here for the first time, feel free to sit a spell and take a look around.

Here's a list of Alphabetical Closings where you can look up your favorite places from days of yore, and here are some of the site's most popular posts and pages:

Tricentennial Songs

Forest Lake Park

The Hi Hatt Club

The Towers dorms

Waccamaw Pottery

Hurricane Hugo

The Wade Hampton Hotel

J.B. White's

Signs Your Favorite Restaurant Is About to Close

Ted's Rules For Restaurants

The Myrtle Beach Pavilion

Chippendolls

Gibbes Planetarium

Old Richland Mall

Red Wing Rollerway

Feel free to leave comments!

UPDATE 2 March 2011: Commenter Chief Dan George has found the piece on the WLTX web site. It is here.

Well, it's half-way through January, so I think this is the last time I'll be touting the calendars (though you can buy them all year in the store), so: Get your Columbia Closings and Pawleys Island calendars here.

Remember, it'll be 2011 all year -- your 2010 calendar is now history, not current events!

Start Your New Year Right!   no comments

Posted at 2:22 am in Uncategorized

See that thing on your wall that says 2010? It's useless, defunct, obsolete, pining for the fjords, joined the bleedin' choir invisible -- it is an ex-calendar.

You can fix that! Get your Columbia Closings or Pawleys Island calendars here. Your wall will thank you.

Remember, it'll be 2011 for a whole year -- Don't be the last person writing the wrong date on your checks!
