What is a blog?  For us it is a short blurb that we write when the mood strikes us.  It can be first person, funny or informative. In short, a blog is whatever we want it to be. Published Oct. 22, 2007 at 3:10 p.m.

How many times have you heard someone exclaim "I love Target!" or say they can't get out of the place without spending $100? I hear this conversation -- even partake in it -- probably a half-dozen times a year.

And it's true: I do love Target. In fact, I wish I were there right now, blissfully pushing my plastic red cart through the clothing aisle, thinking to myself, "I'm going to cruise over to the frame aisle next."

But now I'm wondering if there's anyone who dislikes Target? I can't imagine it, but surely, someone in the city of Milwaukee must find Target something other than the Mecca of retail therapy? Right?

Target haters, come hither, and tell us why you can't stand the place!
