Guru is a huge fan of US cartoon The Simpsons. Indeed Homer Simpson has been an inspiration to Guru for many years. His wisdom will stand the test of time.
So it delights Guru to hear that a little piece of Springfield - Homer's favourite store, the Kwik-E-Mart - is being turned into reality.
Blogger Laughing Squid reports that 11 7-Eleven convenience stores in the US and Canada have been converted into Kwik-E-Marts as a promotion for the release of The Simpsons Movie which opens on 27 July.
Laughing Squid adds: "A bunch of photos of the Kwik-E-Marts are starting to show up on Flickr."
And he helpfully provides a list of all of the Kwik-E-Mart locations.
As shopkeeper Apu Nahasapeemapetilon would say: "Thank you, come again."
