skymama 37 #28 July 11, 2003 QuoteI've been to Barnes and Noble like 3 times this week looking for the new HP book, but they still don't have it. Bastards!! When I was in WA, my Aunt reserved the HP book for the kids to buy at a bookstore. On their way there, they stopped at the grocery store. The book was there, and it was $10 cheaper!She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jumper03 0 #31 July 12, 2003 QuoteSpeaking of Barnes and Noble... all these good picks are giving me the itch to make a run! Instead of using up good jump money, maybe there could be a DZ.com book swap???? JumpScars remind us that the past is real Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ginandjuice 0 #40 July 12, 2003 I currently started reading "Invisible Monsters" by Chuck Palahniuk, he's the guy that wrote Fight Club. But if you really wanna read a good book, read "Survivor" by him. Excellent book.
