I [I]could[/I count mine, but I don't have the time.

I do know I've got 4 books open next to my bed.

MN doesn't actually live in a house, he's burrowed in amongst a flippin' huge pile of hardcover tomage.

Prior to last weekend, when I sorted all my books out here and gave a load away, I had over 250 in this house. At my mothers house I have around 700 more. As she is moving I will be having a book sale soon. I hate getting rid of books so it will be a sad sad day.

I don't own any books.

It's called using the local library.

More than I can be bothered counting. About 250-300 in my bedroom, plus maybe another 300-400 in other rooms of the house. Other than that, I have over 10000 ebooks / text files currently shared, and around 2000-3000 more in my current downloads directory.

Most of the actual books have been read at least once, but I generally have 100 unread ones at any given point. I have a bad habit of going to charity shops and just buying anything that catches my interest, so I end up buying books faster than I can read them.

Like a few others here I have feckin' hundreds of books. Me missus used to be area manager for a chain of bookshops and got a very generous discount. We used to buy books all the time. We also bought from the usual charity shops, jumble sales etc. There's an Oxfam on Byres Road, Glasgow (next to the Uni) which only does books.

Now interesting books, that's another story. I have a complete set of the Ency Brit (couldn't be arsed spelling it) which used to belong to the Coats Library. They are from 1902 and are quite fantastic. I also have books autographed by Kurt Vonnegut, Douglas Adams and various other people.

I have consulted with Clocker and we've decided you are old enough to drop names thus, but owing to mental incontinence rather than the usual boastage. ;)

It's not boastage, it's a statement of fact. Fact.

Alright.

I own a copy of Rush Limbaugh's book The Way Things Ought To Be.

It has been autographed by Ted Nugent.

Fact.

I've never been one for seeking autographs of famous people, even as a kid - but then I've never been very sentimental.

I think the book, and the wisdom it can potentially impart, is a much more desirable possession than the atramental fingerprint of its author.

Actually, I agree wholeheartedly.

The Nugent-autographed Limbaugh book was a lark-Nugent has some property in my area and spent quite a bit of time here about 13-14 years ago; my Dad had given me Limbaugh's book, and I'd just finished it when my clerk walked through the door with Ted and a local fellow in tow.

Nugent was in town to appear at a White Tails Unlimited banquet (White Tails is an organization concerned with hunting and animal husbandry) and I got him to inscribe the Limbaugh book to my Dad before I returned it.

My Dad had recently become aware of him owing to his having appeared on Limbaugh's radio show to discuss PETA only a few days prior.

Anyway, my Dad got a kick out of it. :)

I'd be more impressed if you had a Ted Nugget album signed by Rush Lambow.

It's a missus CM thing, she likes things like that.

I have an autograph book with the autograph of Tom Jones in (along with various members of my own family who are not that famous). However, "Tom Jones" looked a lot like my father now I think about it and the autograph book was from a Pontins holiday camp.

BTW-It just occurred to me that this descriptive would be more apropos of a criminal type, whose signature would not (ordinarily) be sought (and in any case, not by me) as a souvenir.

Nice word, though, even in such unfortunate proximity. :)

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is what we in the trade call a high-end rod.

I didn't think so either, but I defer to your expertise.

I'll try to be more aware of the subtle shadings which indicate a true rod, as opposed to those which accrue to mere irony.

Practice may not make perfect, but I do aspire.

I appreciate the honest admission-you are so much more adept these days; genuinely difficult to slide one by you. :)

Last book I read was The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell. It's an interesting read. Make sure to pick it up.

i have abt 25000 maybe more...mostly comics
