I am a member of a book club

SIDE NOTE: Before the peanut gallery starts flaming me for being a member of a book club. Let me tell you something it is a great way to meet women. The one I am a part of has a lot of them and attractive ones at that.

And April's book is Pride and Prejudice and Zombies picked by one of the girls imagine that!

Perhaps Santa was trying to give me a head start on getting it finished. When I joineded the book club at work, I usually had good intentions on getting the title read before the discussion, but usually I just went to stir up shit, knowing nothing about the actual content of the book.

That surprises me. You're usually so meek and mild ...

I wonder who got you that.

She joined a book club too, but usually convinces them to select titles she's already read.

that joining a book club might be a good idea for me too. I am always reading something, and if what you say is true then I should give it a shot.

I'll have to avoid telling people what I am reading right now though. Or I may have to have a seat, right over there.

Edit: Got any tips to find a good one?

I found mine through a friend.

that this book was terrible.

But what does he know.

I just thought of something. When the next round starts I might suggest Stormblade's book. You know so we can help him.

You ask for a comission. For helping to sell 20 books, you should be able to get enough to buy a gumball in a quarter machine.

I could lend the book club my *unread* copy. That way you would not have to purchase it.

If anyone needs a second copy, you could just photocopy it...

MauriceRevek's picture

You ask for at least $10 for the copies. You don't want to be out of pocket for all the copying and time wasted in front of a photocopier.

Stormblade's picture

That I really, really, really hate you.

Akuf's picture

Well at least I am trying to help you because I know that all 5 copies that have been sold were actually given away.

I was singling out Revek and Q-Bert. I was prepared to take your comment at face value. From just about anyone else on this site, I would have assumed sarcasm.
