The staff was friendly and kind, they always had a good word and took the time to be helpful when it was wanted and left me alone when it was wanted. Some 80,000 of the 90,000+ thing I wrote were typed in the cafe. It's like losing a friend.<br /><br />Shade and Sweetwater,<br />KKyddrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07668797984157146798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34364708.post-8256842453325450622011-04-07T03:00:03.840-07:002011-04-07T03:00:03.840-07:00amazon and their ilk do that!

Someday an iPad type device is all we'll have. Just like on Star Trek. But I want a mini-skirt and go go boots, none of this monochrome jumpsuit nonsense.Shieldmaiden96https://www.blogger.com/profile/04673938377819957295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34364708.post-17066977004913830622011-04-06T04:27:08.010-07:002011-04-06T04:27:08.010-07:00boo hiss! :(boo hiss! :(Henrietta Collinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12759980222087034766noreply@blogger.com
