I have a first edition For Whom The Bell Tolls

Scored it for $2.00 in '83 at a used book store. When i use to be fanatical about collecting books, I would always check out the boxed of books they bought from people before they would go through them, price them and shelf them. I scored huge.

when i saw it, I grabbed a bunch of 50cent paper backs and shuffled it in with them. When the dork(just someone who didn't care) saw it was not priced, he said "We usually charge $2-5 for hard covered books. Is $2 okay"? I cringed(externally) and said okay!!!

Wow, now that brings back memories. I can still remember what that guy looked like!

But I have never been to a bull fight. Don't think I ever want to either. Just not my bag.
