so, i’m reading a recent post from rob poel about his recent positive experience at krispy kreme and i notice that he mentions that the new store is in western michigan. well, i live western michigan and i live just miles from a new krispy kreme store that i’ve been patiently waiting to open.
a quick note to rob confirms that we live in the same town – grand rapids, michigan. i’ve been reading rob’s blog on-and-off for awhile and it’s funny that i never put all the pieces together. looking back through his archives it seems fairly obvious. and there’s also that blogchalking icon staring at me, which i only noticed after i wrote him an e.mail. hi. ho. it seems we have a few things in common, including a fascination with the krispy kreme experience. perhaps meeting for doughnuts is in order.
and yes, my wife still thinks the number of people i meet online is just plain wierd.
