One of the really cool things about my job is getting to buy books on all sorts of subjects. Any one of you who has spent any time with me knows that I have a ton of interests. Gardening, crocheting, cooking, space adventure, Internet searching, reseraching, Big Sixing, reading anything, watching movies, singing and dancing at inapproriate times. I frequently refer to myself as a fountain of useless information. But really, some of that knowledge has been useful. I am great entertainment at parties. I can talk to anyone. I win Jeopardy all the time in the comfort of my own living room. Really, I should be a gazillionaire with all the knowledge floating around in my grey matter.
Recently, there has been a trend in publishing to produce books that are like the inside of my head. I find them great fun. Want to check some out? I will put them on display in the library, but some of the titles include:
170.83 ZIM
