It's official: I'm a Pacers fan

[deborah]

Kirkus has been bought by Herb Simon, owner of the Indiana Pacers, developer of the Mall of America, and co-owner of an independent bookstore. Based on the news story at that second link, it looks like this isn't the first time Herb Simon has used his money to help rescue a struggling book-based business.

A successful capitalist who cares about books. I can see a future in that.

In other words, OM NOM NOM NOM BRAINS REVIEWS.
