Using said book on the backside of said masochist.

Nothing like a twofer.

Britten's War Requiem sung by kindergarten choir, played on a walkman with headphones offering 0.5 ohm resistance, 1.0 mm drivers and a range offering 75 - 5,000 Hz.

Hey!
Kindergarten choirs do their best!

Damnit now you have me thinking very un-librarian-like thoughts about incunables. Not fair. *wags her finger at AA*

How about thinking very un-librarian-like thoughts about incuntables?



Good to see you back here and posting lovely lady.

Life's not fair, and you'll certainly never pick up another "dry and dusty" book again, will you.

Big bucks

I remember seeing a Gutenberg bible at Harvard many years ago. My initial thought was to wonder how much I could get for it if I was able to abscond with it.

I adore antique books! I was totally fascinated with the National Geographic story on the Gospel of Judas.

Assuming one was brilliant enough to figure out *how* to steal a book of that fame, and foolish enough to attempt it, it would be impossible to sell- every single dealer on the planet would know it was a stolen book. (There is a special room in Hell for book thiefs.)

As for worth? Lets just say single leaves (pages) have been known to go for thousands of dollars (and up).

Well there goes another fantasy shot to hell. Thanks

i've heard of cheaper ways to get paper cuts, but you've got to love the idea of a thousands of dollars version.

Regardless, blood drawn is ...
