I'm sure I wouldn't care for his preferred reading list as it's probably filled with what I call pseudo-intellectuals.

That's great, Divia. My brother sent me a Kindle for Christmas (I had just treated myself to a Nook Tablet) so I have both to enjoy now. The Kindle is smaller and easier to hold but Amazon and B&N don't always carry the same titles so it's nice to have both. I imagine your Nook is like my Kindle wit...

I'm shocked that anyone still uses whiteout. We don't even have a bottle in our supply room now and one of the Admins pitched a royal fit about it the other day (she's older than I am and remembers the typewriter with great affection).
