SHOPPING

BORDERS BOOKS AND MUSIC

Even though Borders moved from the center of Towson to a schnazzy new shop in the outer burbs, we will make the trip. We know big chain stores don't really have feelings, and you're not supposed to feel bad for them anyway, but we couldn't help noticing that ol' Borders took it pretty hard when Barnes & Noble started horning in on Borders' turf. But for our money, Borders actually seems to have the slightly deeper selection. And we'll never forget who our FIRST favorite books-and-music superstore was.
