Though that reminds me, more years ago than I want to admit to, the pre-Cambian era or something, there was a district in Chicago called by the politically incorrect name of "Jewtown" along Roosevelt Road, Halsted, and Maxwell Street. The stores there were closed on Saturday and open on Sunday.

Stores owned by Christians at that time often were closed on Sunday. Some of them would have signs saying something like, "We're at church. Why aren't you?"

That area has been bulldozed and paved over, and all of that is vanishing into history.

Thanks Jim, reminds of some fond memories I have from a couple of Speakeasys I used to frequent in downtown Houston...Ahhhhh, those were the days.
