Book Board Chat

Good Afternoon Everyone -- just had a heavy downpour, but the sun's out now [dropped the temps outside to 88 degrees at whatever humidity level].

Patsy Grano Jim may be onto something. Maybe those books don't want to be bought. Perhaps they know exactly who is going to grab them at the sale and want to avoid that fate. Then they might reappear for the next sale.
Been enjoying your Alaska pictures!

Treasuremomz Sam -- neat flowers, but the actual plant makes me think of Seymour of LITTLE HOUSE OF HORRORS. You aren't missing any house pets or obxious neighbors, are you?

UNIVERSITY CLASSES appear to be starting. I got two orders of WAITING FOR GODOT this morning. I always pick up plays [particularly on bag days], those paperbacks are easy to pack and I ignore all those 1 cent listings on Amazon because they generally all get sold out. One of the sales was Expediated, too.

Classics -- speaking of WAITING FOR GODOT. Obviously it is something teachers consider a classic form of play, but I couldn't stand it -- not when my brother was doing it in high school and in deep awe at various phrases or when I was forced to watch part later in College myself. [where I did learn that is you have to deal with someone who is deep into whatever those meaningful/meaningless lines are, that if you pop some part/song from a musical that is even vaguely related you can kill the conversation fast. WAITING FOR GODOT fanatics seem to particularly hate Rogers and Hammerstein. Yes, I have a 'mean' streak in me]. Some things are classics to some people and some are not. Goes for books too.

lluwig I got the WAR OF THE WORLDS one!
