Watch your weight…ice cream is good at this! Anyhow, if you can't live without it, just compensate the weight addition with sports – Indulge yourself with other side board sports. :)

In theory- Cool concept but molly moon’s attitude gives it a more ketchup + cool whip sort of vibe. Just kind of fake. Bummer, but I kind of think Dairy Queen has more soul..

Most new retail developments are too expensive for ‘interesting’ stores. Landlords prefer reliable, bland, national tenants who can sign long term leases at top dollar. Hence the proliferation of cell phone stores and fast food chains.

I’m hoping for a kiteboard shop but, unfortunately, Ted isn’t a kiter.

Stone…I was just kidding. I’m a tongue-in-cheek kind of person. Sorry…No offense intended. It reminded me of my old shoe post on the 2200life blog. (which is also meant to be satirical)

I am Canadian, and I do really want a local ski and hockey shop. I realize I may not be representative of all Pike-Pine residents :).

EconE I’m sorry you think hot shoes equals expensive and $300. “Hot” is simply an adjective, doesn’t mean I’m Paris Hilton.
Shoes and clothing are generally looked at as staple items that don’t dip as much when the economy goes south, ’cause they are typically not seen as luxury items. They do dip however, not saying they don’t.
and sorry let me clarify, hot shoestore does not necessarily mean $300 dollar shoes, but it doesn’t mean a payless either ( we already had one). Hot shoes means hopefully a store with a range of prices and preferably well made and good styles. To me, redwing boots are hot. so moving beyond the snark :) And shoestores can be clustered, not unlike cafes; works real well in portland, BC, and san fran. depends on the place.

Maybe my general point is, I wish folks living in condos or rentals, gave more of a toot about the retail mix of buildings near them or under them in the early stages and let folks know their thoughts. Some owners/tenants are as keyed into the local demand and what could potentially work in their space unless someone tells, be it a market study, folks on the street, or other method. I mean, Who doesn’t want to be able to shop for things in their own neighborhood?
And, Matt, reading your post, I remembered you are Canadian, but I couldn’t tell if you were serious or no?
