    This one just struck me, partly because I like to read. This is from an interview with a used bookstore owner. He was in New Orleans until he got hammered by Hurricane Katrina, so he moved to Houston where he got hammered by the lockdowns.

    Kiplinger's, 03/21, P.72:

    What's it like to shop at the store? "My basic layout for a bookshop has confirmedly been from the beginning, labyrinthian. We've got 84 sections, from Earth Sciences to Astronomy, Physics, Social Sciences and so on. But if you're less than 4 feet tall, it really does feel like a labyrinth. Children love it and I think adults find it cheerful as well."

    I like it - it's the little guy prospering in the presence of the big guy with a clever turn of phrase.
