SPEAKING OF ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS...

WAL-MART, AFTER BECOMING THE NATION'S SECOND LARGEST DRUG RETAILER...

HOWS OUR FRIEND SYDNEY? HAS SHE DUMPED MO FOR THE CYBERSLUT YET?

OH, COME ON! You STILL THINK SYDNEY'S HAVING AN AF FAIR JUST BECAUSE..

...BY PUTTING SCORES OF SMALLER STORES OUT OF BUSINESS..
