I am the same way with Heinlein, Herbert (Dune), Asimov, and a few others.
Sometimes I will see a book at a yard sale that I own and I have read.
I will buy it cheap and randomly give it to someone I think will enjoy it.
I met "Angie" a few years ago. I listened to her speak and bought her book.
Tragic story told in a very factual and non-judgemental way by a Polish ghetto survivor.

I feel bad for a close friend who has loved the Patriots forever.
It was hard enough to suffer through all the 0 for 4 jokes as a Bills fan.
It was hard to listen to all the OJ jokes.
I can only imagine he must be feeling right about now.
I am not being negative.
I am basking in the glow of perpetual mediocrity. (50 year fan here)
I am tired of the resounding mantra "We are number two".
I want to see someone take charge and just WIN a championship before I die.
So you will have to let us know if you come north and we can go to Nick's for a Garbage Plate.
I am from Buffalo but have spent most of my life in Rockchester.
Differing opinions should be welcomed, but that is just my opinion
Some could not get through the traffic. Most ended up coming in by helicopter.
Sha Na Na was there because they won a contest at a bar (at least that is what I heard).
Too many did not make the movie or soundtrack cut - mostly due to record label conflicts.
Honorable mention to Richie Havens. He was one of the few there at the start, so they found him a guitar and asked him to play anything to calm the impatient crowd. He played all the songs he knew and then started making songs up - improv.
That got us the song "Freedom"
John Sebastion forget the words to his own song
Canned Heat was audio only inthe movie and soundtrack.
CSNY, Suite: Judy Blue Eyes was unreal
Jimi and the Star Spangled Banner in the A.M. gives me chills.
No, I was a tiny bit too young to have been there.
I hear a song coming around, "Hakuna Retatta!"
Proteus, when was the last time a Bills game on Christmas week was worth watching?
With this team, you take whatever enjoyment you can get, with no other expectations.
On one play they just called the penalty on the "receiving team". Did they all do something?
We were screaming when he did this! He had the first down by just letting his momentum carry him forward instead of sitting down. That was a gutless play.
I have been saying that since 1966, and it tastes really bad.
I am trying to figure out how to be a Bills fan without caring if they win or lose.
As it was said earlier, I have seen this game scenario100 times, and I am sick of it.
Time to take a step back and think of better things for a few days.
