The building on 71st that was:
Tony Romas - Famous for ribs, and closing
Jazmoz Bourbon Street Cafe - When they opened, the owner was quoted as saying that if you can't make it on 71st street, your business is flawed
Al's somethingorother
Some steak and Sushi place

Apparently the land owner gave in, ripped the front off, and turned it into a two-spot strip mall.

So if you need a cell phone, ink cartridge or mattress, you may be in luck.

There are just places that are jinxed.  That's one of them...

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

Coincidentally, the front was recently ripped off of the Grandys/KC BBQ/Whatever building too.

You forget an E-Cig shop.  They seem to be in every strip center in town now including the old Chili's on 71st in front of Woodland Hills.

Geez! How many spots on the fad band wagon are left? This one is ridiculous.  ::)

Adult binkies seem to be really popular.

I'm torn between being happy less people are sticking fires and cancer in their mouth hole, but those I have seen using them seem unable to set them down.

From talking to a proprietor, this may be because they are using too weak of a nicotine mix

I'm curious what else is in those.  I cringe when someone is puffing away on one in an elevator or in close proximity.  I still don't want their chemicals shared with me.

Mainly water, nicotine and long lasting fruit flavor.

I swear when I saw a young black man walk in a place of business with a real "Binky" I almost lost it. A real What the.......! moment.
