Curt is Chicago native – but don’t hold that against him. After stops in Madison and California, he and his wife moved to Waukesha in 2004 to open their own downtown business.

Waukesha Walmart

 "I'm Sam Walton and I approve this message."

You can all breathe a sigh of relief now- the overprotected and semi-threatened Butler’s Garter Snakes living in the grass lands at the corner of Hwy. 59 and West Avenue are going to have a new home soon, and it’s going to look a lot like this…

This is the latest and greatest rendering of what the proposed Waukesha WalMart will look like, and it is nothing at all like the one they proposed a number of months ago (which I think is good).

Evidently snakes are picky about their WalMarts.

The updated design includes plenty of windows along the front of the store to let in large amounts of natural light because snakes like to bask in the sun. I hear the rest rooms will all be snake accessible as well. The cafeteria will feature Garter Snake salads, Butler Burgers, and snake snack cakes.

While looking at these plans, however, I can’t help but think that I have seen a design similar to this somewhere before…

 

And if you hadn’t noticed yet, it appears that WalMart is changing their logo as well.

It seems to have a much softer appeal to it. Personally, I thought the old logo was much more appropriate for world domination.

But what do I know…?

 

EDITOR’S NOTE: NO SNAKES WERE HARMED IN THE MAKING OF THIS BLOG.
