Totally OT, but just found out (yeah, a few days late) that Borders is closing. Man, I've spent so much money and time there over the years, in both the books and music sections. Just hours and hours browsing and reading. There's a huge one by me, and a good amount of my life was in that place. It also had a huge children's section with curling nooks. It will be such a hole when its gone. I really does feel like the end of an era.  |

Hoppers - I know what you mean..... spent many wonderful days just browsing by myself ..... or with my youngest nephew, who is curious/interested about EVERYTHING!  ! |

Online stores and digital replacements are a sad substitute.   |

I got my hands on an old Sauli interview from 2008, soon after he won the Big Brother, so I decided to scan and translate it: emmuzka.dreamwidth.org/324149.htmlp.s. is it just me, but has Livejournal been down now over 24 hours? I haven't able to reach anything beyond the starting page. Is it down for everyone, or is my service provider screwing me over? Same here but it works fine with Opera at least for me, although I saw some people couldn't have access even with Opera. ETA And it's not working again today at least this minute that I'm posting |

My job starts at 7:00, when my grandson goes to bed and the rest of the family here at the beach house will go out for the night while kindhearted me stays home with the sleeping baby, who never, and I mean never, wakes up until morning. |

[looks suspiciously at lynne] You don't really have a grandson do you? Its just a stuffed doll that one of your deluded kids possesses, and everyone else in the family is too worried about their mental state to correct them, right? Or...wait...this is worse. There IS a child, and you are drugging him with opiates every single night. Right?? CHILD ABUSE!!! Because, lynne, you have got to be lying that there is a child in existence that sleeps all night and never wakes up 'till morning.  You reading this birdieeve?? |
