The ones at my B&N look the same too but they're NOT all behind the cashier.

Right. There are different sized B&Ns with different "styles."

Most of them here have coffee shops and cafes on the side. Great veggie sandwiches and great green tea. :)

Obama looks like Will Smith.

Not even...

They both have ears that stick out.

That's where that ends.

I just wanted to point out that there are books missing from the display. I know this because there are two empty plexi book holders. The display has been altered from its original form-unless the bookstore routinely leaves up empty removable plexi display pieces.

According the article linked in the first post, there is a bookcase on the other side, and there is a two-foot gap between the bookcase and the store-front.

If anyone has linked this, I missed it, so here is Barnes and Nobles' press release. Interesting that they specifically say that they believe that the person taking the picture is also the person who put the book there in the first place.

LOL

That reminds of how some whites will find whatever light skinned, long haired black actress and say we look alike. I have never experienced that with other blacks.

Guys, this is the stupidest thread in the history of this site. It's not even close.

and you're going in with the assumption he's lying. not everyone can be everywhere all the time.
