I'd pass on the refrigerator, but might actually consider the range with
the refrigeration capability if I wanted to spend that much money. We
leave home around 6:00am and often don't get home before 8:00pm. At that
hour after that long a day, I'm not often in the mood to cook a meal.
The option of storing something in the oven, having it cooked
automatically and ready for serving would put an end to many of my woes.

There are just so many meals cooked in a slow cooker than I can stomach
during the course of a week. In addition, 14 hours cooking in a slow
cooker is a bit long anyway.

I was not referring to only built-in bookcases. There were few if any
books in the houses.

The house I described was built in 1950 by the owner of a lumber yard.
The garage was also paneled in walnut.

You are the target audience for that product. What is frivolous for most of
us is just the ticket for others.

Again; hardly surprising. The type of folks that would fill their
house with books has always been a vast minority. A minority made
especially amusing by the habit of many of them of disparaging anyone
who doesn't have books.

I've only lived in one house with built-in bookcases.

What sort of surprises me is the people I know who have a room in their house
that they call "the library." One has a bookshelf going from the living room
to this "library": I have more shelf space for books in this room and I call
it my, well, room . Another couple has a room off the dining room with one
wall with built-in shelves. When I was cat-sitting for them they told me I was
welcome to borrow any of their books to read. I found nothing of interest.
Most of the books were old garage sale buys, I think, like best-sellers from
1975. I think I had already read all those back in 1975.

That must be somebody else's long-range goal. I wouldn't trust anybody
else to choose my produce or meat. If I'm going to the store for those,
why not pick up my own flour, ketchup, etc.?

Ah. I think it's a hardware problem. Just snip the Internet connection.

You know, they never think of hitting the Off switch when the crazy
computer is about to blow up the world. First, disable the uninterruptible
power supply, then hit the circuit breaker.

Maybe the owners of some homes that Susan toured had their books
packed? When we sold our old place, I boxed up anything I could and
put it in storage before we started showing. And there's the kind of
folks who read yet own few books -- they're usually rabid library
patrons.

I'm just saying that it's hard to judge whether or not people read
by how many books and/or bookshelves you see in their homes...

True. I know several folks that are rabid readers, but have few books
about. They tend to haunt paperback exchanges, exchanging as well as
buying.

I do pretty much the same with my fiction. My house is however filled
with books, mostly of the non-fiction kind. These are research
material, not reading material.

We moved into a new house when I was in junior high. My mother was
going nuts trying to figure out where to put the bookshelves in the
living room. There were shelves in the bedrooms and garage but not the
bedroom. I asked Mom why she was bothering. She answered "I worry when
I go to a house with no books."


With that in mind, books were a major decorating point for me in every
apartment I moved to. I always had shelves and the books on them
carefully arranged. I considered that people would visit and look at
the books and judge me accordingly. I read both lightweight novels and
classics but was careful to make sure I never left the trash out where
someone might see. That would be as embarrassing as leaving sex toys
out in full view.


The years went by. The book collection grew. Each move got harder and
harder as packing up the books and shipping them became more of a pita.
Finally, I moved in with my boyfriend and up here to New England. The
books took up the better part of the moving truck. Once up here, there
were 2 of us to debate where the books went and how to put the shelves
up. In a moment of inspiration, I realized that anyone who would judge
me or get to know me on the basis of the books on my shelves was shallow
and I was shallow for thinking such a thing was possible. How neurotic
could I get? Besides, there weren't that many guests over anyway, and I
could get ahold of any book I needed quickly with the Internet and the
library. In a quick rash decision, I gave away tons of books, books I'd
been saving lovingly for years. Sometimes I regret it. Mostly I don't.

Wow, I don't know if I could do that. I have several shelves of books
in our front room, because I re-read them. I know, most people think
that's stupid, but I don't care -- a favorite book and a mug of hot
peppermint tea are a tiny bit of heaven for me...

I got rid of twenty boxes of books after college. I put what I kept out
in a nice homemade bookshelf is the dense hope that SOMEday, someone
will strike up a conversation after seeing something on a shelf, like I
do when I go to the house of someone who has good books out. Alas, I
live in a cultural wasteland, and no one seems to have read "Things Fall
Apart" or "The Makioka Sisters" or "Njal's Saga" or "Extraordinary
Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds" or "The Devil's
Dictionary". But I live on in hope. Since I had a baby, three bright
women with post-grad education have gone on and on about a Lamont book
"Operating Instructions", and I am sad it is the ONLY book anyone has
recommended to me in the last two years. To me it is full of whining
about "recovery" and the consequences of not using birth control, and
thnk the whole thing a fiction she did in the guise of a memoir just to
make a buck.
I had a big treat yesterday. I found a copy the book I just loved as a
seven year old "My Father's Dragon". I had forgotten the name, but never
the maps, or the Spoonerizing mouse that called out "Bum cack, bum cack!
We dreed our nagon!"

ObFood: My recent salad binge continues, as I continue on my sojourn to
lose my "baby fat". Every Monday I take a big, big bag of yuppie chow
to work, and a bottle with olive oil mixed with fresh lemon juice and
munch it up by Thursday.

I'm not suggesting that anyone who doesn't want to get rid of their
extra books should do so, only saying that I did. I do reread favorite
books. _Reading Lolita in Tehran_ got me interested again in books I
read long ago. So I got _Pride and Prejudice_ from the library and am
rereading. It probably took me as long to get it from the library as it
would have taken me to dig it out from boxes in storage if I'd kept my
original copy. I still buy books, but now I try to give them away as
soon as I see they're piling up.

I buy them roasted... a nice crunchy texture and taste pretty good too. Up
here they're sold in Scoop and weigh type stores. Down there , you'd
probably find them in a health food store.

I buy them roasted... a nice crunchy texture and taste pretty good too. Up
