Then you'd have two, though. Maybe keep one in a glass case to preserve it for generations to came... and the other, you dog-ear and highlight like crazy while you crease the spine to mark your page when you don't feel like dog-earing. It will be a well-read book, and will have lived a good life, while the other will be there for your children, ages after the one you read is dead beyond recognition.

Tsk, tsk! No! You keep one in a glass case, for decades, then...EBAY!!!

Psh. You're like, the queen of Ebay, Fire. Of course you'd say something like that. Better yet, keep it in there for generations, then sell it on ebay, version 100.0013. Course, you'd be dead by then, but you descendants would be rich! "Wow! A real paper book!" |

um...No! What would I get out of that? xD My Great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great, and so on, and so on, Grandchildren would get all the money! Just wait till I'm about 70, then sell it, get the money, do something fun, then die! Happy ending! xD |

I got it today and I've only read like the first three or four things in it. I like it so far, though.  |

I didn't get my first, free copy. And I still don't know why. So my mum kept bugging me and finally, since she said she would pay, I ordered it sent express so I wouldnt have to wait an age for it to get to Sydney.
And I didn't get that copy either.
I used Amazon's tracking number and found out that it had arrived, but according to the mailing company used it had been 'LFT BY LETTERBOX' - I saw that note precisely one month after it arrived.
I am very, very annoyed.
I don't own my first in-print publication! Despite my mum saying she'd be happy to do it again, I most certainly am not.
Sincerely angry,
Jiggy |

That really odd, Jig. Mine came to me just fine. Perhaps it's about getting it before some sneakthief nicks it?
That said. I think it's all rather awesome. I got mine ages ago, lol. And I found it great to read and see. ^^ Nice work on the whole thing.
