Walmart now has a blog

(heads up from Instapundit)...

Right now it is looking for fuzzy heartwarming stories...

Over the past two weeks, Wal-Mart and its associates have been on the frontlines of every aspect of relief and recovery from Hurricane Katrina.

In that time, we've seen and heard of extraordinary acts of heroism and kindness as neighbors and communities come together to help each other, and we're proud to be part of this community.

Wal-Mart is launching this blog (Wal-Mart's first) to tell these stories and help keep the public informed of ongoing relief efforts and services. This site features the personal histories and photos behind the operations we read about each day-- real-life hurricane heroes who have stopped their daily lives to help, like this Wal-Mart truck driver who was one of the first into New Orleans.

Please come back frequently, and make sure to check back and learn about new ways you can help with relief efforts

Or how about this story, about how Walmart and the rock group Three doors down delivered a convoy of supplies to Mississippi...

Yes, I know: Elites hate Walmart...but Walmart, home Depot, Lowe's, Target etc. are where most people will get supplies to keep going...
