Location blogging #15- quickie updates.

Been a buncha changes just in the couple months since the last of these.


Nicely's Video?
No longer a video store.
Totally a tanning/salon/beauty place.
They got a new purple sign up, and everything.
The bimbos won.

Well, that, and Redbox and Netflix have made the video store of old obsolete.

Which brings me to.....

....the video place by Plummers.

Gone.
Gone-y, gone, gone.
Empty hole.

Video rentals are extinct.

Except for Blockbusters.

And they only stay afloat because they sell more movies than they rent, and they have an online thing that's a ripoff of Netflix.

*Sigh* bye, video, byyeee.

Oh, and Hanson's?
They're a Mercy Primary Care now.
All glitzy with fluorescent lit signs, and fancier parking, you wouldn't recognize the place.
I'll have to get pics in the next "season", of trips this summer.

DVD is now a 13 year old technology. In 10 years, there will be a whole cohort of young adults who have never watched a movie by--horrors!--putting a magnetic tape into a player.

It's sorta like our generation and vinyl LPs, maybe. I owned some as a kid, but they were old-fashioned (compared to tapes) even then...
