Judging a book by it's cover?

I've seen Clerks but I'm always suspicious of a shop that keeps it's shutters closed even when open.

I wonder if the name "Alco stores" is a reflection on the clientèle?

Exciting day. Saw a police chase end with a swift arrest about a mile from home; good news in school parents afternoon for boy; Walking Lil saw two Barn owls playing, a deer and some bats again about a mile from home.
