Have you ever heard of Big Foot? A large, furry, half-man, half-beast that lives deep in the forest has been rumored to exist for decades, maybe even hundreds of years. But to this day, there has not been any conclusive evidence of Big Foot's existence. It is one of the most well known conspiracy theories out there. And that's just the tip of the ice berg.

But these days that has become a much harder thing to do. With more modern technology like e-readers, tablets and smart phones being used to download books, the brick and mortar bookstores have become almost obsolete. Borders and Walden books are gone already, and many Barnes and Noble stores have also closed. But I miss these stores. Large buildings with aisles and aisles of every type of book you can imagine. I'm not against using an e-reader and I actually have downloaded several e-books myself. But there is no substitution for being…
