BENTONVILLE, ARK (AP) -- Some Wal-Mart customers soon will be able to
sample a new discount item: Wal-Mart's own brand of wine. The world's
largest retail chain is teaming up with E&J Gallo Winery of Modesto,
California, to produce the spirits at an affordable price, in the $2-5
range.

While wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to throw a bottle of Wal-Mart
brand wine into their shopping carts, there is a market for cheap wine,
said Kathy Micken, professor of marketing at Roger Williams University in
Bristol, R.I. She said: "The right name is important."

So, here we go: The top 12 suggested names for Wal-Mart Wine:

12. Chateau Traileur Parc
11. White Trashfindel
10. Big Red Gulp
9. Grape Expectations
8. Domaine Wal-Mart "Merde du Pays"
7. NASCARbernet
6. Chef Boyardeaux
5. Peanut Noir
4. Chateau des Moines
3. I Can't Believe It's Not Vinegar!
2. World Championship Riesling

And the number 1 name for Wal-Mart Wine .

1. Nasti Spumante

The beauty of Wal-Mart wine is that it can be served with white meat
(Possum) and red meat (Squirrel).

There was an article in the paper here yesterday about a guy wanting to build a stock car track near here. The location is where a main road crosses the freeway. Three corners of this intersection are already busy. One corner has a garbage dump. One has a casino. The third is a Wal-Mart. So the investor figures this is a no brainer. A natural location for a stock car track.
