Hubris

I was reading an article on Walmart this morning and the following quote jumped out at me.

[Chief Executive Lee Scott] says consumers fall into three categories — loyal Wal-Mart customers, those who shop there for food but not general merchandise, and those who don't shop there at all.


Maybe I wouldn't have read as much hubris in the quote had not the article itself been concerning how Walmart is being quite candid about their plans to destroy the Target chain.  In the grand scheme of things this is probably how most companies group consumers though (with reference to their own company that is).

In other news, my warlock recently acquired a new toy.

Why does the poor Warlock look so tired all the time these days?
Isn't that a spiffy lantern?  Oh, and apparently he's also picked up a new pet.  Poor guy looks tired all the time now.
