"Market hits zoning snag." Bulletin, 12/3/10.
"The people in charge of Bend Indoor Markets, where locals peddle...products do not plan to cooperate with the city in solving a zoning problem at the 2 month old market.
The building...is in an area zoned light industrial, which prohibits uses that are primarily retail."
"But property owners see the issue differently."
"This does not look look like retail," said (the owner).
Err.....I think maybe he doesn't understand the word: "Market."

A customer enters a pet shop.
Customer: 'Ello, I wish to register a complaint.
O: We're closin' for lunch.
C: Never mind that, my lad. I wish to complain about this parrot what I purchased not half an hour ago from this very boutique.
O: Oh yes, the, uh, the Norwegian Blue...What's,uh...What's wrong with it?
C: I'll tell you what's wrong with it, my lad. 'E's dead, that's what's wrong with it!
O: No, no, 'e's uh,...he's resting.
C: Look, matey, I know a dead parrot when I see one, and I'm looking at one right now.
O: No no he's not dead, he's, he's restin'! Remarkable bird, the Norwegian Blue, idn'it, ay? Beautiful plumage!
C: The plumage don't enter into it. It's stone dead.
O: Nononono, no, no! 'E's resting!
C: All right then, if he's restin', I'll wake him up!
(shouting at the cage)
'Ello, Mister Polly Parrot! I've got a lovely fresh cuttle fish for you if you show...(owner hits the cage)
O: There, he moved!
C: No, he didn't, that was you hitting the cage!
O: I never!!
C: Yes, you did!
