Books-a-million is acquiring some of the Borders stores. We go to Barnes & Noble anyway. My wife has a Nook Color, which also works with the Public Library.

Yes, a sad day, indeed. I'm hoping that Barnes & Noble will still stay afloat. I'm guessing that their Nook business has helped out some in that respect. Books stores are some of the favorite places that my wife and I like to hang out at.

Time...It marches on...without ever turning around to see if anyone is even keeping in step.

I'm sorry to see the Borders stores close as well. The one here in Sacramento was always a great place to browse and relax. They sponsored concerts and recitals, also. There was always music going on during the weekend. We've got Barnes & Noble also, but it's not quite the same thing. The Borders here in Sacto also had a really good railroading book section.
I'll miss them.

Sadly the Borders book store sell off is on the way. Just picked up the Kalmbach modelling the 50's special for 40% off. All mags are discounted at this level, so those of you that don't subscribe and like to pick up the odd copy now would be a good time to mosey into Borders. I am sad to see them go, they are the only decent book store in my immediate area.
