I thought you were going to say
he burned books to keep warm
that would cause me severe discomfort and ire.
Hi hip...that's a real hip cool name you got...like

While reading your response I was formulating my reply to offer you and just as the anticipation had built up to the climatic close of your response so I could join in with mine...BOO! with no 'spoiler' warning click! comes...ire.

...still floatin' around it the three letters trying to figure out what you meant to keyboard type...rei? ier? Fire? from burning books? one of those three letter secret intelligences? I'll be here forever if this continues...

One of my fantasies (I have mild fantasies, sorry) is to have the cash to actually buy and own a book store, hire people to take care of the business, and spend much time in my own place of business, wandering, browsing, plucking, reading.

Had I known how the world was changing, I would've snagged bookstore.com or something and done just that. But don't deny an old man his fantasy.
