the histrionics were laughable, but indicative of what our society has allowed ourselves to become in the internet-enabled, 24 hour news-cycle driven device-dependent world.

Kids in the neighborhood go over to the Person St. location quite a lot. I was there for Free Donut Day recently and the atmosphere was festive and neighborly.

Iconic or not, it would be a big loss if the plan were to tear that store down and put up an apartment block.
I'm a Peace girl. Lots of memories of going to KK. Relived some when my daughter became a Peace girl, too!

Will do! But sadly I won’t be able to do so long ... Raleigh is headed down the same path a Charlotte ... but the small victories are important ... this is one of those !

Thanks for the link, Pierre .

Or in this case, the ignorant soldier invented a battle that never existed, lol. Keep up the good fight against those nonexistent enemies!

Step 1: Drive to Carolina Beach
Step 2: Stop at Britts donuts
Step 3: Eat a Britts donut and forget Krispy Kreme even exists

You're welcome.

Britt's IS wonderful. But then again, so are hot and fresh Krispy Kremes. There's room for both. And others.
