    Must be some connection with Wawa, Ontario. The area around there is a spectacular Summer drive, or a nightmare during a Winter blizzard.

    ^noticed a few of them being built also. My neighbor is looking for a job I told him to apply since he refuses to become a scrapper since it is "too much work" yet he doesn't mind bs'ing and watching me do 60% of my scrap work.

    Anybody that applies for a job can either do it online or stop by and see when the have on the spot interviews. In all honesty I can't understand how somebody could live without a Wawa.

    The one across from the nearest 7-11 looks to be close to opening. I'll check it out when it does.

    Wawa is open 24/7. I don't go to 7/11 except for lottery tickets. Wawa makes 7/11 look bad. They are opening sometime this summer.

    Wawa pounds 7/11 into the ground. Then spits on its corpse.

    Was very surprised on a recent trip to Orlando to see a Wawa coming soon sign.

    I guess they're following Yuengling down south.

    Sorry I am a Sheetzs person for life. There is no other convenience store that can match it in my opinion.

    Have you been to a SuperWawa yet?

    The Wawa vs. Sheetz argument has been going on for quite some time, though. According to this poll, Wawa wins.

    I did a 6 year stint in Manchester NH and spent a good portion of my working life down in the mAss end of the area and I feel ya on the food. I did luck out and find both Tastykakes AND scrapple up there but the scrapple just wasn't the same as Leidy's or Hatfield. It was brittle and easily broke apart when trying to cut it but it certainly worked in a pinch.

    Did miss the pork roll and cheesesteaks terribly though.
    John, where do you take your scrap down that way?
    We were taking ours out to Chelsea where we would get about $1.25 /lb for cat5/6...
