Walmart had the issue in stock. I never shop at Safeway and similar
anymore anyway, too high priced, now that Walmart has food. I mean
come on, when Safeway charges $4.49 for a box of cereal that costs
$2.40 at Walmart, why bother?

To reiterate my viewpoint- I would have been fine with concealing
Faber's identity had the same right been given Kobe, who has
infinitely more to lose in the whole deal.

The picture of Kate Faber was much less flattering than those I had
seen elsewhere, BTW. I was surprised it was the same girl, til I got a
close look.
