GIANT food stores to use in-store robots at all locations – WFMZ

Do they really have so many spills at Giant food stores that they need a robot for cart traffic rerouting? ‘Cause I’m not sure I want to shop in a store where I’m likely to wind up in a slip and fall with Marty staring down all googly-eyed at me. #CleanUpOnAisle3

GIANT food stores will begin introducing a new robotic assistant to all of its 172 stores.

I’m fading away from Facebook

This Facebook debacle has pretty much soured me where social media is concerned. I was never a huge fan, since I’m kind of a recluse. I made an effort because I liked being accessible to readers, but this has all been so creepy. I’m still on Facebook for a couple of writers’ groups I really value, but I doubt I’ll be posting much there anymore.
