Oh ya. It means "beneath the" .... something 
No you're not. I don't own any kind of e-reader (unless my laptop counts, which I don't think it does). And I doubt that I will until I have to or until I can get one that has my entire library already installed on it. It's only 866 books, I don't see what the big deal is.
On the plus side, I put together a new bookcase this week (one of those twenty-nine dollar five-shelf pos from WalMart) and loaded it up, so I only have fourteen boxes of books to unpack yet.
Fourteen boxes? Maybe you pack in smaller boxes than I do. I only move about two dozen boxes of books, and I had just under 3000 books at last count. Of course a lot of them are MMPBs, too.
My sixty dollar not-quite-POSes from Ikea have served me very well over the years. I now have the books organized pretty well:
- Two bookcases for MMPBs, alphabetized by author, but not separated by genre since all my MMPBs are horror, science fiction, and fantasy anyhow.
- Two bookcases for hardcovers and TPBs, alpha by author.
- One shelf on the entertainment center for all my old college textbooks, another shelf for all my cookbooks, and another shelf for non-fiction stuff that I'd like people to believe that I read.
- One bookcase for childrens and YA fiction. It's segregated from everything else so I can keep that bookcase in a closet, where no one who visits me ever sees it. I hardly ever read this stuff when it was age appropriate, but now that I'm in my raging 30's, I can't get enough. I blame Harry Potter.
- My RPG books no longer go on a bookcase. Most of them stay in banker boxes in the closet, except for the d6 Star Wars book which lives in my laptop bag, and my stack of Ars Magica books that sits in the living room.
I skimmed through your library just now-- how is Azure Bonds? My friend wrote that with her husband, and she just gave me a copy of it a few weeks ago, but I'm afraid to read it, because if I don't like it, I don't know what to do when she invariably asks what I thought of it 
I bought a Kindle just to prevent from littering my house with paperbacks. It is way too easy to buy books on the Kindle so you have to be careful. If I find a book i like or one that I know i want to keep I buy it in hardback.
IIRC, Azure Bonds is not a bad read. Better than many. I think it was one of the first books from the Forgotten Realms series. But I did read it about 20 years ago.
Could be...most of my boxes are the boxes that printer paper comes in at the office (back when I had, like, an office job), a couple of bankers boxes, and a couple of other boxes around that size.
Several of my books are "kid-lit" or ya. I've also found that I enjoy them more than I did when I was much much much younger. Babysitters club, Harry Potter, Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew. If they ever start novelizing MLP, I'd be all like "Take my money! Now! All of it!" 
It's been several years since I've read it, but I remember liking it. I've almost finished V is for Vengeance, I'll pick up Azure Bonds next and give you a better opinion when I'm done.
And of course, the problem with concurrent threads is that when the opportunity arises to make the EXACT SAME JOKE in two different threads... I have to take it both times.
Multiple penetrations, indeed.
There are times like this, where I notice many people are online, due to snopocalypse or whatever reason, that I've sometimes thought of starting a google+ hangout and trying to do a game that way... I have no idea if it could work, and I'd probably need a headset, or at least a decent microphone. Just thinking outloud and curious if there might be any interest. If there is, I might craft a little scenario...
I'd be down.
Dangling this stuff out there, potential story titles.
Listen, Do You Smell Something?
No Rest For the Wicked
The Grass Is Always Greener
This Won't Hurt a Bit
The Lost Boys
Your Presence Is Requested And Required
1000 And One Iberian Nights
Second Star To the Left
Alexei, Get Your Pilum
Calamity Now
Note, these titles may refer to the same story seed, stories I'm ready to roll out, or upcoming story ideas...
No Rest For the Wicked: Too many of your existing chapter titles get songs stuck in my head (The Bangles are great because who doesn't love Susannah Hoff, but The Mamas and the Papas? Come on). This chapter title would make me sing "No one mourns the wicked!" aloud every time I saw it, along with a Kristin Chenoweth impression. My coworkers would thank you not to use this title.
The Lost Boys: I LOVE that movie! I bought it the day it was released on VHS, and I watched it over, and over, and over again, for MONTHS, until the tape finally snapped in the rewinder. The Corys were so hot, but the eponymous Bill of "and Ted" fame was even hotter, with the long blond dreadlocks and those "come hither" vamp eyes.
1000 And One Iberian Nights: Lovely 
Second Star To the Left: There would have to be a follow-up chapter called Straight On 'Til Morning.
Alexei, Get Your Pilum: Because if anything would annoy my coworkers more than my singing Stephen Schwartz, it's me singing Irving Berlin
I don't seem to be on when everyone else is, or else I'd be up for it.
When Google Wave was going we did this with a Amber game.
I'm for trying it but I would need a dedicated gaming night and time. Small children and spouses demand that much.
jebrick, do you go to AmberCon NorthWest?
no. That was my only cross with the Amber RPG. Although I love the books and Zelazny is one of my favorite authors, the game never caught on in my gaming group in college.
The only gaming conventions I go to are GenCon ( because I live in Indianapolis) and Origins ( Columbus Oh). The later is mainly because it is a central location and time for a bunch of college gaming friends to gather. We do not even play games there anymore but drink beer and then find a good sushi place to feast.
Aaargh!
Love Amber, the books and the game.
My best roleplaying memories are tied to it.
RIP Zelazny and Wujcik 
You should stop by my booth in the art show when you go to those conventions this year and say hello 
Oh, and apparently I am now at #20 on the Members List if you sort by number of posts. Still have quite a ways to go before I catch Arya (#16), JeanMichelle (#15), qcipher (#9), and JL (#7). Ain't nobody catching Marko Markoko at #1, who has more posts than #2 and #3 combined.
Not bad for posting next to nothing outside the pbp sagas I've been in.
Where is?
I am pretty sure that I was at Grand Master when I started Bibracte, just to add some perspective about how running a PbP can inflate post counts astronomically. Especially one with lots of multiple active threads like I've been juggling.
