damn shame, the borders that was in westfield mall in downtown sf was chill as fuck before going to work so was the one in stonestown wheever i needed to get homework done. it was easy as shit to rack books too, i took a couple of art books and magazines once in a while. fuck barnes & nobles, for some reason whenever im in there i feel uncomfortable as hell.

I love reading books on my iPad personally. I have over 400 of them anywhere I go with it.

There are pros and cons to everything. As great as technology is there is something to be said about picking up a book, having a record in a physical format, watching a movie at the theatres and all that other old timer shit.

"back in my day, books were printed on paper! you had to turn each page when you got done reading it, and store it on a shelf afterwards!"

"Grandpa! How did you cave-men even make it this far?!?"

Last grabs!!! 80-99% off... Sucks all the stuff I wanted & willin to buy but couldnt cuz they were still pricey already got looted away... Even tho all the unreadable novels, pictureless paperback elevator books, commercial music & christmas soundtracks are the last ones to fly; theyre all fading fast... Even practically all the furniture & equipment are sold but being held... One of the two stores the entire county alone (which was the 1st in my county ever to open) suppose to close its doors at the end of tomorrow while the other which is actually/perhaps the last to open in the county will close on Mon...

I made it to the Borders by where I'm at. It took me about 30 minutes to look at every single book left in the store. I did manage to find 2 books I really wanted and it only cost me about $12.

They're selling everything though. Anything on the wall, ground, ceiling is for sale. All their phones, computers; anything. I'm probably gonna try and make one last stop.
