RE: [MLUG - DISCUSSION] those of you waiting for a Fry's or Best Buy in Columbia...

Good grief... we so need a Best Buy to put Circuit City, D&M, and
Columbia Photo in their place.... 

Fry's won't come to Columbia... StL or KC will have a better chance.

As for Biscayne... it's going to be Famous Barr.... :-/

...will probably be waiting forever. :-)

Seriously, I was curious as to whether any, um, "geek retail" would
be announced today at the Vandiver/US-63 dedication.  Instead, it
looks like we just landed a Bass Pro Shop.  Now, there are worse
things than having an 80,000 square foot sporting goods store in
town, but it wasn't exactly what I was hoping for.  Connected to the
Big Fish the CenterState people have landed will apparently be a
generic assortment of 70 outlet-type stores.  Kind of Lake of the 
Ozarks without the lake...

On the bright side, we might get another swing at this when the
Kroenke people announce more tenants for their new center where the
Biscayne Mall used to be (and where that disturbingly large hole is
being dug right now).
