I borrow them, read them and send them back to sell. No doubt with your sticky little kiwi prints all over them! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I'm glad you said "tea parties" at the end, there! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />
Something was sure missing!

LMAO, yes Weaver, with my sticky little kiwi prints on them.
NBII, we have leather chairs upstairs for people to sit and read. DH plays his favourite blues, a bit of Keb Mo, Jack Johnson, old Fleetwood Mac. The customers (who are mainly baby boomers) just LOVE IT.
We also sell over the internet. HUGE range of customers from the States.

Hey, my DD and her H invited me and my son over 2 watch a movie last night (they have surround sound and a honkin' big plasma screen).
I wanted 2 watch Pride and Prejudice, but my son didn't.
We watched "The Island" instead.
I can ALWAYS make time for Scarlet Johannsen! (she's an EN, I figure. GC should weigh in on this issue. It's important!) <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Jen, yes I am greeeeeeeeeen with envy. I love, love books! My entire childhood was spent in the library or hidden behind a book! My 5th grade teacher had a contest throughout the school year. Whoever read the most pages won..guess who won? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Yep, I was one of those kids too. My mother hated it when she would talk to me or call me and I'd say "mmmm. Yes, what....?"

Probably a wise move. And Gray doesn't care about any woman and her EN'S in Pride and Prejudice...he would be too busy trying to learn the dance steps! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Tell me you play soothing music and have little alcoves for reading Emily Dickensen and Louisa May Alcott... What are we twins? Did you see my previous quote on balls and tea parties? Simulaneously posted no less! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Ah weaver, GREAT MINDS, and all that, eh? We know what we like, and obviously are not afraid to say it - at the very same time, no less! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Scarlet Johannsen? She's okay. I mean, you know... okay, I guess, for a drop-dead gorgeous woman. A need? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> Uh, no.
I was an avid reader as a kid, too. And since I have no idea if ya'll are old-timer's like me, maybe you don't know my favorite girl: Nancy Drew, who constantly found herself in a clocktower being starved to death, though she never died and wasn't gonna, but dang, I was very worried about that girl!

oooh, books. Taking a ski break. Then I hear the word books. Jen, your shop (shoppe?) sounds wonderful. Certainly nicer than reading fossilized excerpts on Amazon. What’s all this about MM? 2long pointed me here otherwise I’d be in the hot tub. Guess I better catch up. I go skiing for a few days and something bad happens. Weaver, was it you on that other thread asking about entanglement and spooky action at a distance? Do you really want to know? Just a little entanglement can give one a really bad headache, you know. OK, in case you have a masochistic streak, look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_entanglement The intro isn’t bad, but I’d skip the math sections. They are woefully incomplete. And that’s all I have to say about that.

I saw this Wikepedia (sp?) thing....
Did you know ANYONE can edit it????
I mean, one could SERIOUSLY have some fun, if one were of a mind to.
I can't see how the information stays the same.
Nope.
Don't trust it.

Yeah, the math is useless, IMO. But the summary isn't actually far off.
How about I send one of my old texts on this to Jen and she resells it to you guys at a tidy profit?

It's true; I like pretty women. I can't help it. It isn't my fault!
The winner of the 2006 Pulitzer for fiction is a book called March by Geraldine Brooks. It tells the story of the absent father from Little Women.
I'll bet you $1 he has an affair.
Scarlett Johansson? She's swell. I skipped Match Point though. A friend of mine called me after she saw it and said "Gray do not see that movie. And I'm not just saying that because it sucks."
Jen, I hope you're ready for me, because I'm coming to work in your bookstore and finish my diss.

FF,
I have those Nancy Drew games, too! I mean ***I*** play them... that's the closest I get to video games... my son gets them for me for my birthday! LOL
Trixie Beldon? No, haven't heard of her... but her name sounds like she should have a horse. Does she ride?
ncwalker,
Oh yes, I've heard of Wicipedia too, and not in a nice way. I mean, it wasn't about me, but I would hate to be the person who's name was added under the definition of "steaming poo" or "pustule"!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Oh NB, you need to find yourself some Trixie Beldon. She was like the backwoods, country version of Nancy Drew.

As a kid I liked reading about animals and this one beautiful witch who lived back in the woods, well she was a vet of sorts but she cured them with witchcraft, which was actually love.
And if I could find any books about beautiful nun's, well that was just as good. Beautiful witch's or beautiful nuns. Don't remember any names of the books though.
Then when I became a teen, it was all stuff like JLS.
I was and still am very, very wierd.
Ap,
I just wanted to know how the spooky space between protrons could be likened to what happens in the universe when two people are attracted to each other romantically. (and not OP or WS addiction stuff either...when it is a GOOD thing)
Okay, can you do that?
But I am going to go visit that link you gave right now.
Thank you AP!
