Sheila Lennon's Subterranean Homepage Blog had a piece today on viral e-mails going around urging people to ask Trader Joe's to open a Rhode Island location. Take a peek.

If you don't know what Trader Joe's is, you can learn more here.

If you've been there, and you're already salivating, use their form to request a new store.

Hey — this could be a win-win. These stores can be placed on way less square footage than a "supermarket," their funky vibe would fit with our Portsmouth look-and-feel, and they wouldn't even be in direct competition with Clements, since they skew more to specialty foods. Personally, I think this would be a super anchor for Clocktower, or one of the West Main Road spots.

But only if Larry Fitzmorris says its okay.
