depending on their subject the local library might appreciate the books. Welcome back Lawrence. Sundew (Tess)

Good Sir, quote: Oh really. Please. I am 'good', but not 'god'. O, really? If not god, how on earth did you manage to offhandedly name two poets who just happened to be previous favourites of mine? Coincidence? Very suspicious coincidence, it is, then. No one else i know has strongly liked both Keats and TS Elliot. quote: And if you did melt, I'd keep your jar on the good bookshelf<g>. Oooo, which would entail company with whom, please? May i request a seat next to WB Yeats? Or Rilke? Ho, hum. Methinks you know way too much about my reading preferences for my safety now...... [;)]

quote: Methinks you know way too much about my reading preferences for my safety now...... owow. That is such a sexy thing to say<eg>. Actually the shelf I had in mind contains [getting up to check] Rimbuad, Rilke, Eliot, 'the Song of Solomon', 'the Arabian Nights' (with illustrations by Maxfield Parrish!), CS Lewis 'till we have Faces' , 'Wind in the Willows', Helprins 'Winter's Tale', a collection of Kipling, and a few random other books. It's the bedside shelf, and mostly there for reading a girl to sleep, so it's mostly things that read aloud well. Yeats is missing (Perhaps from the move, or someone swiped/borrowed him) and 'Mr. John Keats, five feet tall' travels in my saddle bags. Someone has absconded with both my collected and sonnets Shakespear. It was merely a good guess. It was what I'd like to read to a tubbing girl by candle light. Stay warm, Lawrence

quote: ORIGINAL: SherriA www.bookcrossing.com Bookcrossing is an online community of booklovers. You "register" your books (the site generates a unique bookcrossing identification number (bcid) for each one), and track their journeys. Basically, it's founded on the 3R's : read, register, release. Thanks, SherriA! I just joined bookcrossing. It should be great. I've got walls and walls of filled bookshelves. All read, of course. It will be hard to part with them though. They're like old friends. But I found a number of recently released books in my town on the bookcrossing site. So I guess I'll make some new friends. I mentioned that I heard of them from a web discussion group, but didn't say which one. [sm=lol.gif] I did credit you as a referring member. Hope that's OK. Thank You Again! ~smile~ [image]local://upfiles/39715/12E4A1C060F6489690A216BBBB23F2AB.gif[/image]

I just had some very vivid visions of a naked woman bound to bed, writhing and pleading "O, no! Please, Sir, NOT the Rimbaud, o have mercy! O, no, please! O, o, ......" <drops off to sleep> Which reminded me of a funny story by Woody Allen: http://woodyallenitalia.tripod.com/short-uk.html

LadyBeckett -> RE: I'm back- sorta... (9/19/2004 6:23:19 PM)
I don't actually like all cigars, but am very fond of Partagas and indulge them now and then. My son brought me some yesterday, so I happen to be enjoying one this very moment...now that you mention it. [;)]

quote: ORIGINAL: topcat It's the bedside shelf, and mostly there for reading a girl to sleep, Very nice. I knew there had to be a reason I smile when I read your posts. Welcome back. Glad the move went ok. But, now I have a picture of you sitting in the tub with a cigar and a book... How will I get anything done now? ;)
