Good: Jackets KICKING ASS, really good food at the new Hoggy's on Sawmill. Got out of work early.

Bad: Borders was out of nearly EVERYTHING I tried to pick up. Settled on Hellsing #9 and Black Lagoon #1 because every book I tried to get (Alchemy of Stone, Saturn's Children, Sly Mongoose, Watching the Watchmen, DW: The Writer's Tale, Vorkosigan Companion) were sold out or only by order.



DUDE. Walter's a bad guy? :(



Oh, well. Life is good.

I could've sworn we knew Walter had misplaced loyalties, or that it at least was suspected. Then again, I haven't read 1-8 in approximately forever so I could be entirely wrong.

Its' not totally out of left field, but it's pretty close. I'm also thinking of the first TV series where he never shows signs of betrayal.

[mscongeniality.livejournal.com]

Yes, but the first TV series has nothing to do with anything after about volume 2. It's a totally different entity.

Yep, true.

tobias_buckell has oft lamented the *extreme* suck that is trying to get his books from a Borders. Try B&N instead.

The issue is my uncle gave me a Borders gift card for Christmas. :) I'd prefer B&N or Amazon if I could, but ah, well.

I like Borders but fear cash flow is the reason for their low stock. I heard a rumor in November that the chain may not be long for this world.

Wouldn't shock me. I know they've closed some stores.

Still - several of the books I looked for are Ohio authors or best selling authors. You'd think they'd at least try to stock that...
