No worries.  I can't stop myself from buying 
*myself* every book I look remotely interested in. 
;)  As a former substitute teacher and part-time 
teacher of the functionally illiterate, I have no 
qualms about buying the books.  I just have two 
problems.  We live on a community college 
professor's salary (and nothing else), and we live 
in a 1100 square foot house with no more bookshelf 
room.  Especially around here, I know how much it 
means to help your child learn to love reading.

JenP, just noticing that Ginger is adlibbing "You 
are so Beautiful" by Joe Cocker... talk about 
strange.
