Thanks for commenting, Moe! You're the best. I'm so glad you loved those books, too. I want to read that one you said made you laugh so hard on BART.

As for Small Business Saturday, I know exactly what you mean. Normally I don't leave the house -- I hate the masses. But this year, so many businesses need it desperately -- most of their revenue is banked on for those last 5 weeks of the calendar year. If they fall short, they're in big trouble. So what the heck, I'll go buy some books and gifts and help out. Free parking in Oakland on Saturday, too!
