A guy I work with started his career at Wal-Mart. He was fresh out of UofA when he landed a buyers job at Wal Mart in the 80's. He said on his second day, he was walking down the hall and saw an older man in coveralls, cleaning up a spot of spilled coffee that someone had left. When he walked up, he was going to mention to put up a sign, assuming that it was a janitor cleaning up the spill, and it was Sam Walton who was cleaning up the spill. He found a new respect for Mr. Walton that day.

Anyway, thought I would share. also, just put in a market order to sell off all of my WMT holdings in my IRA. There are plenty of great companies on the exchanges that support out country that I would rather support.
