21 November 2007

Alice and I were going to head up to Franklin tonight, but the rain and all the yahoos on the roads made us reconsider. We'll head up early in the morning and just chill tonight. The freakshow was all out tonight in our beloved supermarket, known as "Kroghetto" and "Fellini Kroger." Nothing brings out the characters like a national holiday. I think literally every socioeconomic level in our society was represented in my checkout line. And people were passing line! I narrowly missed seeing a rumble between a lady with a mustache and a black family who had slid up in front of us.
For anyone worried about globalization should go for a stroll down the aisle of any urban grocery. The funky, weird, and smelly Americans are out there buying food. They're one of a kind and there's alot of them.

Why do they call it the Fellini Kroger?

Federico Fellini was a Italian film director known surreal movies and bizarre characters. Long-time North Knoxville resident Robert Marlino tells me that people started calling it "Fellini Kroger" in the 70s and the name stuck.
