I see I should have edited (prufrid) that before posting to make sure the story within the story was clearly delineated (particularly as to when I returned to the outer narrative)--and I'm still not sure whether "location, location, location" and "timing, timing, timing" should be considered singulars or plurals, and I should have changed Jim Hyatt's "story" to his "store."

And I'm sure none of you give a damn about what I just now wrote, but I had to have some excuse for refreshing this.
