There’s no way I’ll buy another book...
I’ve enough to fill every nook…
But this one looks exciting…
The plot seems riveting…
It has free shipping…
Just stop buying…
Just one more…
No more…

Well written Bernard - so humorous and exciting. There is an old saying 'You don't find the Book - the Book finds you' - So we haven't got a chance - they keep finding us - However - enter the Amazon Kindle - and there you go - It's such a space saver. Enjoyed your poetry my friend ...Maria

Thank you so much, Susan! I think the unread books on my bookshelves now outnumber the ones I have read by a comfortable margin. But, you're right, can never have too many of them :))

Thanks a lot, Maureen! For me, it's mainly books and music as far as Internet shopping goes, so yeah, it could be a lot worse :) But they sure make it very easy for you to part with your money . . . maybe turning off that 1-click ordering button would help . . . :)
