Need a book? My father might be able to help. (Large pic)

He has a few:



The HT and gaming stuff if mine, the books are his. Actually you can't see the gaming stuff it's below.

1. If he's read even half of them...

He's got my total respect.

[Locut0s]

11. Don't know what the % is. He has a habit of starting a lot of stuff but never finishing. That said..

he HAS read A LOT over the years. More when he was younger.

2. I have a few shelves like that

and I've read every single book on my shelves. :shrug:

[Maine-ah]

3. good lord...just like my Mom

she has two bookshelves that my father made years ago. Both are about 9 feet tall, and 4-5 feet wide. Full. Then she has five more, about 7 feet tall, and 3-4 feet wide. All full with sailing, art, and other miscellaneous stuff.

4. That's what our bookshelves look like.

And we just took 3 full bags of books to the used bookstore this weekend.

5. Are you giving them away?

[Locut0s]

10. You couldn't pry them from his hands if you tried ;) nt

14. And here you got my hopes up

But I guess it is for the best. I don't have shelves for the books I have and am running out of wall space for new ones.

6. Hmmmm...lessee now...

Loves the Classics, is German or is a Germanophile (I'm sure there's an actual word for that), loves music, particularly piano, is interested in what makes women tick but gave up on that a while ago, might be a teacher or professor, Isn't rolling in dough, mostly believes in authority but likes to challenge it every now and then...

How'm I doin'?

[Locut0s]

9. Pretty damn close :P ...

Loves the classics yes, is very much a Germanophile (WWII history especially), loves classical music very much so!, as to what makes women tick yes that probably true though I'm not sure I can really comment there, is a professor teaching Chinese at a local college (married a Chinese woman, my mother, he's white but speaks just about fluent Chinese), isn't rolling in dough at all though he makes a comfortable living (a better explanation is that he has no idea how to save money, ever penny goes to buying some book, trinket or toy), yes to mostly believing in authority as well, though I think he's moved to the side of challenging it a little more as the years wear on.

7. I need two books yet to be written...

The true cost of manufactured products (as they leave the factory)

and formulas for perpetual indebtedness.

8. Great! My 'ex' used to throw books away,

then he sold the house, so I have practically none.

[Locut0s]

12. Throw them away?! :'( nt

[elleng]

13. Yes. SIGH!

With no discussion, of course. Gone forever.

15. I'd prefer the figurines up top

[Locut0s]

16. Those are McDonald happy meal toys LOL For some reason my father thought it would be funny....

to start a collection of them, sort of as a 1/2 joke.
