Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Dude, that tag never closes.
I've been corrected twice today. It's like I'm sloppy or something.

In this crowd? Say it isn't so! (Yeah, I saw the beatdown flea gave you. Tsk.)
They do with the pretty cashiers at the Whole Foods!
Heh. I was going to say! I get flirted with a lot. The other day I had a guy in my line who was telling me some story about when he was in school, and how his teacher was so mean to him, and then he said he guessed he deserved it, but at least he wasn't having sex in the empty rooms.

Thanks for sharing?
I have seen someone slide a $20 through the debit card slidey-thing. AT that point I just walked away to the express lane.
Good LORD.
I guess this is fairly literary. At least as literary as slug eating. Anyway, New Orleans public libraries are trying to restock and are asking for book donations--hardcover or paperback. The staff will assess which titles will be designated for its collections. The rest will be distributed to destitute families or sold for library fundraising.
If you have books that you were meaning to get rid of at some point anyway, please consider sending them to:
Rica A. Trigs, Public Relations
New Orleans Public Library
219 Loyola Avenue
New Orleans, LA 70112
If you tell the postal worker that the books are going to NO libraries, you may get the library rate, which is somewhat less than the media rate.
Oh yay, that's a fabulous idea. Maybe it's time for a culling.
You may want to check the library website for details. I can't bear to let the board convert this to a link, since the website is http://nutrias.org/
Looking for suggestions for a birthday gift for tomorrow. Guy's a 41 year old Trekkie/LotR/Firefly geek who also likes the Harry Potter books and Douglas Adams, but I'm not too sure if he does a lot of SF reading. I'm looking for a few paperbacks that are relatively new that he has a good chance of not having already read.
Any ideas?
Is he a heavy reader? 'Cause go with Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon or the first volume of The System Of The World trilogy (which is Quicksilver) if so.
Never mind. Didn't read the whole thing.
