A True Appreciation For Roy Grossman —Cagle

Don’t know why, but the name of this mega printer just jumped to mind. It made me take pause.

Feeling guilty and wanting to help out a mom-and-pop establishment, I cancelled the order and found a place closer to home. After all, the big chain didn’t need my money. Small business is the lifeblood of America, damn it, and I wasn’t going to let that apple pie rot on the window sill (cue up John Cougar Mellencamp’s “Pink Houses”). My little bit of business may enable Joe and Debbie Stitcher- head to afford an extra week at the Jersey Shore this summer. At $45.90 for a 20x28˝ poster on bond paper, laminated and mounted to foam board, I was doing my part for the economic stimulus cause.
