Credit Card News

Good thing that Fiorella hadn't memorized the number on her new credit card, the one issued to her when Target was hacked, because now Home Depot has been hacked and Fio's getting another replacement card with yet another new number on it.

What's next?  Starbucks?  FedEx-Kinko's, Barnes and Noble?

Pretty soon the credit companies are gonna run out of numbers.

Modern Times

Being as that Fiorella's book will be coming out digital, she's been trying to acquaint herself with  Kindle and Amazon.  But she doesn't like the way light reflects off her screen when she's trying to read, and she isn't accustomed to this one-page-at-a-time business, and her hand still has problems "turning" pages.  But one thing she really does like is being able to check out a whole first chapter to see if she's interested in reading the rest of the book.

Beats the heck out of standing beside a bookshelf in Barnes and Noble and trying to judge the book by its back cover and first page.
