What next?!

And MAYO drives another family icon into the ground because of their DMC. Ya, it' fact. I talked to Mike (the owner) about it last year. He made my Mom's 90th bday cake for me.

Sounds like their business has been bad for several years.   Between the bakeries at your fave, Sly Vee and Places like Daubes...competition.   Throw in the Broadway thing...

I don't think DMC had that much to do with it.   

[Rebel SS]

I suggest you go talk to Mike at length in person, Delmar. He said last year when I was talking to him the "DMC thing" was THE major killer, with the Broadway renovation gonna kill him in taxes and cut off his access to broadway. Big article in paper about that. I was on THAT Committee and tried to stop it and was involved with him in it. So, go to yer favorite Sly-vee and get baked, then  frozen then thawed bakery junk, because no one will work nights anymore. My buddy was the head baker there for 20 years. That's why he quit and now heads up the school food program. 

[delcecchi]

I don't associate the Broadway stupidity with DMC, but it sure could have gotten lumped in with that mess.   And it is true there is more competition in the bakery biz than there used to be.

The reason us63 got rerouted was so the city could get the cars off Broadway.

NOOO!!   AND I did buy a can of regular good old premium in the can SPAM yesterday.  The wife gave me one of those looks that just makes me laugh.  Like "you dumbass".    Now it is in the house so I can start working up the nerve to open it.  Ya know once you open it you have to try to eat some everyday for at least one meal till it is gone. 

[Rebel SS]

I open one and in three days, tops, it's but a memory. 

[LPS]

You are a pretty tough cookie though.  And Glenn I do have to use some catsup to finish a can of SPAM.  At least once.

How is that even possible.  Too many people on their staff so noone knows what the other is doing?  Everyone thinks someone else ran the check...

Hate to say it, but with this big diversity continual push, I think they're pushing folks right into a big wing-ding. There were 49 "laughs" and an equal number of dislikes on this article on the bottom icons under story you can check, and only about ten "likes". Things not as popular here on this issue as they want you to believe...
