In article , lid says... That's just wrong on so many levels. What a waste of bacon. No kidding. You can always print off another copy of a book, but a slice of tasty bacon that goes to waste is gone forever. -- Jim G. | A fan of good reading, good writing, and fellow bookworms http://www.goodreads.com/jimgysin/ http://www.librarything.com/home/jimgysin |

Maybe there is an association there that could make the book valuable! Francis A. Miniter |

Of course, they will have to take a sample of the bacon and carbon date it to be certain. And, maybe, just maybe, they will find a thumb print of Shakespeare's on a corner of the bacon, proving beyond a doubt that this was his! Francis A. Miniter |

Salisbury's Library Book Sale

Not all book sales are created equal. *I have mentioned in the past the annual Westport sale which often features books from the libraries of celebrities or New York City book publishers. *This weekend, the Town of Salisbury in Connecticut is having a library book sale, and, as many towns do, they have a preview evening on Friday that is open to those willing to pay a fee to get in. *Dealers and determined collectors are the ones who usually take advantage of this offer. But Salisbury's preview evening is a little different. First of all, they only have 8,000 books for sale, a number that hardly invites serious book fiends. *Second, they are charging $25 admission, not the usual $5 or $10 that other towns charge. I visited the one in Yonkers (Will Branch) about a month or two back during their book sale and I remember being upset that they didn't have a classics section amongst the sections of books on sale. (unless I just missed it) |

Hmmm. Has anyone thought about the significance of that? *snork!* You guys crack me up! Catherine |
