A tragedy


 How could this be? Borders closing?  impossible!!!

 I couldn't decide if the people parked in the lot in front of Borders were grieving friends of our beloved store come to pay their respects or sharks excited by the lower prices and in a feeding frenzy tearing and devouring an innocent victim.


That was the check out line.  It makes me terribly sad to know this bookstore so close to where i live is closing.  Obviously people haven't stopped reading.   This bookstore will be cleaned out in no time.  I know that online is quick and easier and you can download hundreds of books on a Kindle, but the paper book with cool artwork on the cover just can't disappear.  Going to a bookstore with a coffee shop is an experience everyone should have.
