@yoshimi I've cracked two double-yolk eggs in 2022, this after a lifetime of single-yolkers. Further proof the world has gone weird?

This is a great story of how Barnes & Noble’s new CEO who was hired in 2019 has turned around the company. Sales are up, it opened 16 stores this year and plans to open more next year.

The secret is the CEO really likes books and readers. So he stopped doing deals with publishers to promote their latest books & NYT best sellers and encouraged individual stores to promote books they found most interesting.

So simple yet…

@guncelawits @ouinne One of my favorite TV lines involved two characters talking about dogs. The line that stayed with me: "They're just in it for the food." 😁
