I am thinking your bookie is getting ready to send Otto and Rex over to break your knee-caps if you don't pay your gambling debts fast. -- Hop David http://clowder.net/hop/index.html |

But... somewhat less valuable when you have multiple copies, however. This is what happens when you go nuts on buying sprees, and have a poor memory of what you already have. Also, many times to buy the one book I want, I have to buy a lot of books I don't. -- Scott Lowther, Engineer Remove the obvious (capitalized) anti-spam gibberish from the reply-to e-mail address |

Flannery made the phosphor on my monitor glow in such a way as to indicate that: Pat (proud owner of a copy of "The Worship Of Priapus".) I have to confess to agnosticism, if not outright atheism. At least when it comes to yours. |

If it weren't for mirrors, I might have lost sight of it entirely a decade or so ago. Still, I have an abiding faith that it, like deity, may yet exist- although mayhaps in a somewhat diminished state (which is a pretty good description of North Dakota come to think of it, so apparently it's where it should be). :-P Pat |

Yup, been there, done that. Also when you upgrade (paperback to hardback, ex-libris to remainder, underlined&highlighted to near mint, sticky to non-sticky...) |
