…and the bookstore was closed. Moved out! Vacated!
I made preparations to stay two hours in the mall with more than half the time allotted for my visit to the bookstore. “They left about a month ago” was the answer I got from the nice lady running a nearby kios.
The death of another Black bookstore is a lamentable event. Throughout the years, I’ve read about this demise occurring and only one other time did it happen to me, but the owner relocated a few doors down the street with STEPS.
The Black bookstore has been my refueling station. The prices go up as they do at the gas stations but when you need the refueling that only reading can give you, the price becomes secondary and my case today, tertiary and even more so if Sen. Obama will revise the tax code eliminating the income tax on Social Security checks. I got’sta have my re-fueling when I needs it else I becomes illit’trated -or is it illiterated? Whatever. (Snap)+(Grin)= LOL
As always,
