Speaking of Santa, I was chatting with the person next to me before class yesterday and someone mentioned his son's Christmas list. I asked about the list and the guy said, "Take a look at this," whereupon he pulled up a Google Document on his phone and showed me what his 8-year old had created.
The kid's list was about 8 pages long, grouped by price range and in order of preference. Not only that, each item had a link to an online seller! So much for the old mark-the-page in the Sear's catalog.
I have mentioned the Austin Chronicle before; a free newspaper that takes a non-traditional stand on just about everything. Of special note are the ads on the back page. For things like:
- TAP DANCERS WANTED - Performance group age 50+
- KID ENTERTAINERS - Will Train
- TAROT READINGS - Clear Answers
- MOTORBLADE.COM - Poster dude puts fliers in 200 legal spots
- Come Race With Us - Soap Box Classic
- Harmonica Lessons
