    Yep, the coupons are being sent via email (I believe) once we fix the orders in our system!

        I got my ER7 notice. But I didn't order it!

        Don't worry, I sent it back. It will get to the right person. Eventually.

          I'm a nerd. My friends all have comic strip calendars: Peanuts, The Far Side, Calvin & Hobbs, Dilbert, etc. Me, I have "Jack Kacrik's FORGOTTEN ENGLISH" calendar--365 days for obsolete and archaic English words and phrases plus iilustrative historic examples of those words and phrases.

          For Monday, March 2nd,2015: BIBLIOBULI.

            I thought it was five and five. My mistake. But the books are great. I was happy with the selection. One author I have not read and one who I really love and two who I like a lot.

              I finally got my books from this yesterday - very nice selection - all authors I have really not read before too!

              How did the coupons for this work? Obviously they have not been emailed yet - I have not received them at least anyway.

                We're still working through the shipping because we had a little computer misfire when we filled the orders, but as soon as everything is reset and shipped, we'll email the coupons!

                  On Hemingway

                  Having been a bit intimidated by the man before picking up a single work of his, I understand the hesitation that can sometimes accompany material like this. In case anyone here feels the same way please let me help.

                  I’ve read nearly all of Hemingway’s short stories and wanted to share with you my favorite, comfortably resting in the top tier of stories I’ve ever read from anyone. A large part of this one deals with fear, but there is so much more.

                  If you haven’t read it, please take a few moments for ‘The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber’ if you can find the time. It’s the story of a man and his wife on safari with their guide, about finding courage when faced with fear, and touches on the absurdity of our lives. It’s more than worth your time investment, and again, is my favorite story from possibly the greatest writer America has produced. If this post helps crack the door to Hemingway for just one person I’d consider it a huge success.

                  EDIT: Will remove the link to the work if necessary, available by a simple google search.

                    I can't organize my thoughts about this enough to put anything coherent down...

                          So I can't post this on Facebook yet so I am doing it here.. I finally found a new job. I will be giving my notice at my present job on Monday. It will pay less but more room for advancement. And no more overnights. I will be working 7-3:30. A regular life for me and my family.
