I'm not sure I could bring myself to shop in a store named Piggly Wiggly. Same thing with Publix. It's too close to Pubic for my comfort.

In college, on our winter break training trip to FAU, we would shop for groceries at the pubix because it was the only grocery store in the area.
I never heard of Piggly Wiggly until my evidence professor threw a bottle of Piggly Wiggly ketchup at my friend for not preparing the case to recite in class.

Kewl, they still allow corporal punishment in law school.

I actually shopped at a Piggly Wiggly last summer while camping in Myrtle Beach. It was kind of a neat store...nothing fancy, very small. it reminded me of the old, old, Victory Markets before they become Great Americans. Of course, even when they were Great Americans the paychecks still said Victory Markets. Can you tell I worked at Great American?
I agree about Publix!

Kewl, they still allow corporal punishment in law school. Oh yeah, it's encouraged. We were convinced anyway. One professor has lethal accuracy at throwing erasers.

Heh, you definitely don't want to annoy a mechanical engineering professor. Especially one with a working model trebuchet on his podium.

Are you a mechanical engineer, Frank? My husband is a civil engineer.

I earned a mechanical engineering degree and worked in the solar energy field for my first career after college. But while in school, I learned that I liked to write and have been working at that and related fields for the past 25 years. Hey, I don't hold that against your husband. Some of my best friends are civil engineers.
