His is lucky to still be alive. A Darwin awards candidate to say the least.

The sad part is that these kind of stupid actions will get "No overnight parking" signs posted and Walmart refusing permission to protect themselves from lawyers.

I am writing this from a Wal-Mart parking lot in Rolla, MO using the WiFi from the adjacent KFC. What could be better. We stayed 4 out of 5 nights at Wal-Mart. Just kinda worked out that way as we were headed North along the Natchez trace and realized we needed to get across the Mississippi while the getting was good. Had to redo our loose plan. I have bought hundreds of dollars of stuff from them including gas.

You Brave sole,dont you know it's bad enough to stay one night at Wally World,but 4 out of 5 will cause many here to have a "Caniption Fit".

Does your RV not float and I wonder what side of the Miss would be better?

Fixing to bring the ole girl out of her new home(Inclosed and Insulated) Watch out Wal Mart we're coming(YOU BUILD IT THEY WILL COME)!
