Have you noticed they change the covers on paperbacks now? Wait a year and put on a new cover and the sucker (Ish) realizes about page 4 he has read this one. I have gone to the library route. Find an author I like and hit the public. My library tax is $60 per year so I use it.

I remember when cokes were a dime at the town diner but then again they were in the old milkshake glasses. Like a quart.

You don't look a day over 30.

Coby, great story about books. Last Saturday I was exchanging some books at our library. I noticed a flag streamer strewn across the opening to the library. "Big book sale". So I go in and sure enough there was a room full of books for sale....

2 DOLLARS A SHOPPING BAG!!!

So being the king value hunter, I race around looking for some decent manageent and stats books, along with some kids books. And I fill up 5 bags!! A few of the books I picked up individually cost over 50 bucks!

Chingching....:-)

p.s. now I need another bookcase though.
