Krispy Kreme Koming

I noticed that Krispy Kreme was running a "help wanted" ad in Sunday's local newspaper. It appears that the long-rumored appearance of the doughnut chain is finally coming to pass.

I still haven't heard anything about a location. I hope it's not in the shopping area where Starbucks is located; that's enough of a mess as it is. My vote would be to tear down the abandoned Exxon station at Wadley and Midkiff and put in a new store. It's a really congested intersection already, but it would still be superior to the Starbucks/HEB location from a traffic flow perspective.

Now...if the company can only stay solvent.
