1. Obama is such an interesting man, I could listen to him all day. So lucky were his students back in

the day when he was teaching.

2. We don't have any bookstores independent in our city

We have a “world of books”. It in the mall.

4. What a wonderful gathering....

I do love B&N, loved a demised chain that I suddenly can't remember the name of (also with a B?) AND always went to Independent 💖 Bookstores, too!

ha, sometimes the universe gives you answers-
scrolling down my FB news feed there's a announcement for a Art Competition whose name starts with "Borders _____".

That's it - 🥰😥😥 Borders Bookstore!
