– Lincoln Square Barnes and Noble closing (NYT) Remember the old days when we were all sad that Barnes and Noble, Tower Records, and Blockbuster put the local book/record/video stores out of business?

Sorry for the lies, bike. You're great.
Homeless guy running over to me: Hey! Nice bike! How much that cost?
Me: Well, fold-up bikes range anywhere for $200 to $2000.
