    Y'all scaring the shit outta me.

    HCP was right. There's a lot more of you backwoods/backdoor/basement- dwelling nerds here than I realized.

    I used to work for Winco in college. Some people say it's "winning company."

    Others say, Washington, Idaho, Nevada, California, Oregon. Which were the states they had stores in (which is no longer the case, they have stores in other states now)

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    In 1999, Waremart changed its name to WinCo Foods. According to the company, the name WinCo is a portmanteau of Winning Company; however, the company also claims (as a "fun fact") that it also refers to the five states where the company originally operated stores (Washington, Idaho, Nevada, California, and Oregon).​

    I've heard this before somewhere, but I just can't put my finger on where that was...

    I posted it because it notes what the company's official position is, if anyone cared.

    That almost sounds like something a "Mad Man" would come up with on a cocktail napkin.

    I’m out.
    Signed the papers to sell my house in Vancouver, and need to move the rest of my toys and junk to my shebang in Idaho, ASAP.

    Orion Bailey, thank you for going to all the effort and trouble to entertain these rascals. Wish I could be there for the party. Have fun, and good luck to the Blazers.
