Zen and Scrappy, do remember that you don't really own e-books - can't loan them, read them and then give them away, or even pass them on when you die. Much as I love my Kindle for all the reasons you both mentioned, I still buy and keep print books for those authors/titles I really feel compelled to OWN. Until the copyright laws change for the better (not likely under the upcoming regime) I'm hanging on to most of my keeper shelves out of paranoia.

I have physical copies of books I must always have access to, such as Zelazny's A Night in the Lonesome October, and have lots of books that I know are far from likely to ever appear digitally. I've been buying favorite books from my childhood from Abe Books so I can run my fingers over the bindings.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Ugh. Got some sort of bug bites on my arm and they itch awfully. At least this time, there's a plausible reason for them.(short sleeve shirts in Florida)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

You can crack the DRM on ebooks. Everything I get from Amazon gets put into Calibre and saved on my computer.

And now I'm crying over Carrie Fisher's dog.

You guys, they're saying Debbie Reynolds had a stroke. I can't even.

Because books.

Wait, what? I mean, what happened to Carrie Fisher's dog? And if Debbie Reynolds had a stroke...

Matt, I'm so sorry about your friend. That's awful.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Yes. I can't even imagine what the family is going through right now. How devastating.
