I, okay what? Well, no, not really. They still sell books, but now they also sell a whole lot of candy too, because it's pretty tough selling books these days. Okay, let me tell you, there are two things upsetting here: 1) The Strand is now selling candy, 2) We didn't start doing it first. After we here in Brooklyn got our shiny new shelves before the start of the semester that were, well, largely empty at the time, I did think to myself "Students, students are coming, we need to fill these shelves with candy." Although given our own proclivities here at Shakespeare & Co., it would probably be more like Clif Bars. A large percentage of our staff subsists on these and nothing else, as far as I can tell.

The majority of the time I read the words, 'The Candy Man Can' I think of the song like I'm supposed to. Only every once in awhile do I read it as the place the Candy Man goes to the bathroom.
