On July 31, 2018 Robert Wightman-Cervantes walked into the Walmart at 2721 Boca Chica Boulevard, Brownsville, Texas to buy what Granny Clampett used to refer to as vittles.
On that fateful day, with an afternoon temperature in Brownsville reaching 100 degrees Fahrenheit, the wind from the SE at 10 MPH, Wightman purchased two cans of ranch beans, one bag of popable pop corn and a white onion for a total tab of $5.44, including 8.25% to the City of Brownsville and a "bag tax" of 5 cents.
After a week of of pontificating about the 5 cent charge, calling me "a liar" for saying Walmart didn't charge for plastic bags, Bobby amended his story to say that Walmart Assistant Manager Jaime Sanchez had informed him that the charge was for "requesting a paper bag."
Whatever, Bobby!
No Brownsville blogger has more consistently promoted Bobby's skill set as a paralegal or research assistant. The guy finds the damn dots. He just can't connect them logically.
Now, Bobby, without even bothering Walmart corporate, has found the "evidence" in his kitchen trash, a receipt showing indeed that he paid a 5 cent "bag tax," an unfortunate Walmart phrase, likely part of the rationale for the State of Texas overturning the Brownsville plastic bag "ban."
OK, Bobby. This back-and-forth is tiring and I'm a patient guy, recently teaching my grandson cursive and the multiplication and division tables. This summer we've focused on reading comprehension and public speaking.
That's easy work compared to trying to talk logic with a hard-headed disbarred lawyer.

ReplyDeleteBobby, Jim didn’t call you a liar. He says your fact challenged. It means you get facts but can’t necessarily use them properly. It’s not calling you a liar.
ReplyDeleteDid Bobby get taxed on the bag tax? I smell a mandamus in the works.
ReplyDeleteI remember Bobby said Walmart charged for PLASTIC bags. When did he change it to PAPER bags? Did he get a PAPER bag at all for the 5 cents? I can’t connect his fucking dots!
ReplyDeleteDodici owner Trey Mendez talks to this blogger?
