A GIRL YOU SHOULD DATE - Date a girl who reads...

I just paid an ungodly amount of money to ship a box of math notes, bioethics papers and books to Hawaii. I ran out of suitcase room!

Don't forget when shipping books, always request "media" rates...

Recently I met a sniper. NOT A FRIEND, MIND YOU! It was just in passing. When he mentioned he had worked the Arizona and U.S. border, I was horrified because standing before me was a man who hunted and killed human beings. My first reaction was a need to spit in his face. That was my clue I needed to keep my mouth shut and move on because I realized things would rapidly deteriorate and nothing good could could possibly come from my comments.

Normally, I like to read DIY gadget type books or psycho thrillers.

Now I want to read this book, "The Line Becomes A River - Dispatches From the Border" by Francisco Cantú. I know for a fact beforehand this book will disturb me a great deal. I want a paperback copy. There was only one left yesterday at my local Books-A-Million. It was a hard back. I may wait until February when the 2nd edition comes out but will definitely read this book. It is unimaginable to me that someone could lack so much conscience to do this type of work. I know snipers are necessary in certain one hit situations (example: like SEALS doing a rescue on a person somewhere abroad) but to go in to work day after day shooting people who are attempting to walk across a border ... No Fucking Way!!!

If you'd prefer a paperback and the store only has hardbacks, you have a couple of options. You could get it online at amazon or you could go into B-a-M and have them order you the paperback version. They would call you when it came in. It's a super easy process and doesn't cost you anything upfront.

This sounds like the kind of book I'd read. Military History and true books about clandestine operations are my passion. Also, Science, especially Geology and Physical Oceanography...rogue waves, earthquakes, and all sorts of seismic events, make my blood hot. A bit of Geography to kind of round things out.

Add Political Theory (Marxism, Anarchism, and others, even Fascism and Authoritarianism,).

Guess those mark me as weird, but who didn't know that already?

Also I have no clue why but you can use media class to mail any pages of medical records!

I was caught in the library last month. I was doing a little research and found my answer in a huge world atlas book. I eventually, traced what I wanted and then stitched up and framed my project.

I then got a library card. ( I haven't had one in years!) Found a little something I wanted to read. Well, actually, didn't find it, but put my name on a waiting list. I'm happy number 127.

I guess, I'm datable, I have a card now...lol

Psst...you should date a girl who can thread a needle too!

Well, I got my email notice of this book. Wait list #127. I really don't think I waited that long. I am the happy renter of a brand new book!

Makes it all that more exciting to turn fresh pages!

I'm getting more date able, I'm on two other lists!


Someone has noticed, I am dating. I can read, thread a needle and cook!

Books are the perfect entertainment: no commercials, no batteries, hours of enjoyment for each dollar spent. What I wonder is why everybody doesn't carry a book around for those inevitable dead spots in life.
