The timing on this is exquisite. Yesterday, just yesterday, I hopped on amazon.com to look for an out-of-print book. Yes, it would have broken my No-Amazon-Shopping rule, but it was just one book, you know? And I can't exactly order it from a local bookstore since the last hardcover publication date was 1960-something.

Then, today, I read this and I directed my attention to abebooks.com. Anyone else got suggestions on websites for OOP books?

In News of Awesome, though, check out the new 1 is 2 Many sexual assault awareness campaign that's being led by Joe Biden. Please note, there is not one mention of girls dressing safe, protecting themselves, or putting the blame for an assault on the victim. This one lays it all at the feet of the perpetrators. From the video:

No means no. No means no if she’s drunk or sober. No means no if she’s on the dorm room or the street. No means no even if she said yes first and changed her mind. No means no no matter what.

Thank you, Mr. VP.

In personal news, I need a day off. This weekend marks the halfway point of KCRF and I haven't taken any time off yet, like I usually do. The jury selection thing on Monday took a lot out of me. More than I thought it would. I'm worn out. It's still a ways away, but I'm thinking October 11 looks like a great day not to be in the office.
