Just A small picture of the now mostly abandoned Sandburg Mall. I wanted to walk the mall, but I decided to obey the sign and no not the cinema sign there is no cinema anymore.

Walking is this centenarian’s ‘business’

Indiana resident Ernie Whaley, who just celebrated his 100th birthday, is a World War II veteran. He worked for 44 years as a machinist at the Ball Brothers Glass Manufacturing Co., and for the past three decades he has walked the interior of the shopping mall in Muncie, Ind.

To put that in perspective, Whaley has walked more than 14 times the width of the United States inside the mall. In his 35th year of mall walking, Whaley is nearing a distance doubling the circumference of Earth. (That’s a lot of steps.)

Yet, three and half years since this video was uploaded and made the initial rounds it has less than 250,000 views. You'd think something like this would have at least 20 times the hits, and blown into full on memedom. Maybe it makes people too uncomfortable. Maybe its so bizarre that people doubt its authenticity (but even still that would mean this woman is some great undiscovered Melissa McCartney-level comedy genius who deserves to have her work seen).

I guess it's like private reserve level meme. The kind of viral video you only share on special occasions. The kind you can even show to viral video enthusiasts and still have there be a good chance they haven't seen it. This is like the $3,000 bottle of rare wine meme.
