school romance students going steady holding hand-helds cyber age kids reciting the alphabet: abc...www xyz MTV Punk Rockers-- my daughter colors Barbie's hair purple torrential downpour the Laughing Buddha still laughing! Half-empty Mall-- customers with iPads shopping eBay **no wonder Urban Malls are losing business! Customers are comparison shopping on their iPads and laptops and finding cheaper prices on eBay & buy.com. "After decades of furious growth, no new malls have been built in the last two years. And in 2010, more than 150,000 individual mall stores closed, according to a report by CBS News Early Show. Shopping Malls may soon exist as dinosaur parks of another age." --Al |

Definitely another time, for sure. Barbie's hair will never be the same, I'm afraid.  |

Fantastic! I just needed a smile and you have provided it promptly with your senryu! All are cute, really! I am one who has never liked malls (can't breathe in there!) and I love to shop online in the middle of the night finding bargains! Or in little boutiques where one can feel like a queen even without buying anything. And sometimes I adore second-hand shops where one can find the most extravagant things for "almost" nothing ... Thank you so much for the smiles! And also for the information! Everything changes, there is no doubt. Watch out and be inspired! Love, Margherita  |

Nicole, Margherita: I'm so pleased you liked my humorous senryu! Margherita: Yes, with the internet you can shop 24/7 which makes it more fun. A lot of people now go to the malls just to sit in the food court and eat and shop eBay. Such is the new dynamics. That's why your "mom & pops" stores are disappearing. I hear they have now resurfaced now on the internet where rent is cheap and they can cater to shoppers like you. Al |
