When Customers Attack

While this story about yet another person turning a department store into a drive-through is pretty pedestrian, the headline on fark wasn't:

If you don't want people driving cars into your store, don't call it Target

True story: Just after 9-11, Aviation Week took a picture of an F-16 in a banking turn, with the Pentagon in the upper-left. What interested me, though, was in the lower-right. There, in all its strip-mall glory, was Potomac Yard, where Ellen worked at a pet clinic. And right next to it was a giant Target with, and I'm not making this up, a giant bulls-eye painted on the roof.

Like they needed any help...
