My kneecap still hurts from when I bashed it weeks ago. BAH!

Also, something I forgot to mention in the last Snarfflebarglast post about the Issac Asimov books (seriously, those Black Widowers books are awesome, even though I think a lot of it was Asimov just showing off how much he knew about everything!).

Anyone who can find and get me a copy of Puzzles of the Black Widowers by Issac Asimov (out-of-print - Amazon wants $77 for a used paperback!) will get a MILLION points. That's right, 1,000,000 Snarfflebarglast bonus points. I've found most of the other ones at Half-Price books and garage sales (and only paid something like $1 for them), but I can only go so many places. So if you happen to be at a used book store or garage sale and see a copy - AND it's under $5 - buy it and send it to me and I'll not only reimburse you the purchase price plus postage, but toss in 1,000,000 points to boot! I have all the other ones and it's the only one missing from my collection. Woe is me.

Mmm, I'll get you this one, but a first cover edition for $20 is the best I can do.

Hmmm, you know, I wasn't even thinking hardcover! I figured I'd go up to $5 for a paperback, but... I'll have to think about it. Sleep on it, as it were. I'm usually a little leery of buying used books on line (not that I've had bad experiences, the one time I did it was fine) but I know I can't get it new and it's not like I don't waste more money on other things... I'll think about it. Yeah. Hmmm....

Well, I *told* you I'd get it for you. I'd just need an addy.

Okay, it's ordered and will probably show up some time next week.
