A friend of mine came up to me at church this morning and said he had a book just for me. He works at a major hotel in town and as he was walking thorugh a hallway, he glanced at a trash can and noticed a hardcover book lurking there. It is the MGB book by David Knowles, copyright 2000. It is quite the book with more history than one could imagine...and for free! Lots of good reading ahead!!! I do wonder how it got there..

It is odd, huh? You know what they say: "One man's trash..."

I hate seeing books in the trash- any book. My wife is almost as disgusted with me for bring home needy, orphaned books as she is for my bring home another LBC.

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/iagree.gif All books are sacred. Great save, as it is an "interest related" book to boot.

I ~enjoy~ the Internet, but I *cherish* my library. Oddly, I think we who have this attitude are becoming dinosaurs.

...just WAIT 'til all the batteries run out! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

When I travel for the Army, I take along paperback books to read on the plane & in hotel room (Korean TV is not fun!)...when I finish them, I either give them to a soldier or lay them down where I know a soldier will pick them up.....books are meant to be shared.
