Bookstore Bingo

So apparently there's a hash tag on Twitter called #bookstorebingo. It was inspired by an article written for Shelf Awareness, Notes From An ER Bookseller, wherein the owner of a bookstore's wife was sick and her husband who normally worked in the ER filled in for her and kept notes of his interactions with people in the shop (not necessarily 'customers').

So nice the Huffington Post ran articles about it thrice. Looks like a lot of people ask who the author of Shakespeare is!

I personally believe in the power of venting and also in sharing. Do not roll your eyes at the clients, however.
