Jilli, it occurs to me that my mother has a HUGE stash of the things. Don't know why I didn't remember that at dinner.
Oooh! Could you raid them for me?
You didn't remember this at dinner because you were too busy going Ohgodohgod sushi, finally!
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

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."

That's a good point.
She's got a bunch of the things, if I can track them down (the basement is a mess), and I'm sure she'd let me steal them.

Alas, Megan, I did not have time this e'en to check.
No worries! I appreciate the offer; just whenever you have the time.

OK, Megan. They have #s 6 thru 10, used. 3 of them (I think 6, 7, and 10) are $3, and the other 2 are $2.50. So, total for all 5 of those is $14 + shipping.

Oops, just found the paperback I was thinking of, and it was volume 2 instead of 8 or 9. I must have been conflating my copy with one a former roommate owned.

Gandalfe, could you get me 7-10? I'll send you a money order to cover the costs.
Awesome!

Thanks for looking Matt. Much appreciated.

No problem, Megan. Or you could PayPal, either way, no worries.
I'll pick them up in the next day or 2. Drop me an email with where to send them - profile address is fine.

Has anyone read Jeanette Winterson's latest novel, Lighthousekeeping? I used to love her stuff, but the last one of hers I read (The Powerbook) seemed way too boring and pretentious to me. Anyone know if this latest is any better?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
If anyone is interested, the Agatha award for best novel went to "Birds of a Feather" by Jaqueline Winspear and the Agatha for best first novel went to "Dating Dead Men" by Harley Jane Kozak.
(The Agatha is the award given out at Malice Domestic every year. It is fan-decided.)
