College towns are fun - BigPete - 02-17-2026
Made another trip to Ann Arbor for my kid this past weekend. Went downtown and checked out a few of the shops. There was an computer repair/reseller that had a nice display of (mostly) Apple hardware from over the years:

then we went to a little used bookstore and I picked up the one Deathgate Cycle book I was missing. This at the cash register made me giggle:

Not sure if this has any meaning outside of being silly. Also my wife had to leave because the smell of weed was too strong for her hahah.

If you're wondering, no they wouldn't sell me the Mac Plus.

If this was a store I frequented (and I feel like I would if it were local), I would totally look out for marbles to leave them (and of course take any I find interesting)
