Reply #33: That is SO true!

Standard request:

"Hi, I'm looking for this book. I can't remember what it's called but it's by this guy..."

It's ALWAYS by "this guy" :eyes: "This guy" is the most prolific author in history...

"I can't remember his name, but I know he has one...It's called "The Something"...

Ah, yes. "The Something". Huge hit. We can't keep it in stock...

"It's about these people who go to this place..."

Well, that narrows down the story angles...

"And, um...it's got a silver cover. Do you know the one I mean?"

Start counting silver covers, genius. You'll be up to fifty before you get out of military thrillers...

At the time, I wanted to :puke:. But now I can :rofl: about it. B-)
