I’ve been a mentor to a young man with a genetic illness, for several years, and one of our regular outings is going to Best Buy. He likes to browse the DVDs and occasionally the CD racks. Our most recent excursion there led me to believe that the days of Brick and Mortar stores are more numbered than I’d thought. It was a ghost town that evening in that Best Buy which is smack dab in the center of the San Fernando Valley with literally millions of residents. Is Brick and Mortar dead? Has Online Shopping taken over retail?

Why is Everyone SO Darn Busy and Tired?
I continue to marvel at how busy everyone seems to be these days. Wasn’t all this new technology supposed to make our lives easier? Do any of you feel life is easier today? Or, are you busy and tired ALL the time? My wife has two favorite words – “I’m so tired.” So, I can’t count. Why is she so tired? Why is she so busy? Why are we all so (apparently) busy? Is this a new way of life or do we have some choice in it?
