[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Book, free to good home (for cost of shipping)

Posted: 8/21/2002 12:59:59 AM EDT

One copy of John Ross' "Unintended Consequences", free to a good home, and someone who will pass it on to another once they are done with it. Hardback, i've read it three times and I have no more want of it.

It's yours for the price of shipping from my area (northern california). Even less if you pick it up. Best sob story below in the next 24 hours or whenever I feel like it gets it.

Gee, you're a helpful one. I'm not sending it UPS overnight, more like book rate USPS. Get a clue.

I also have it in pdf file (about 4 megs). If you'd like a copy, [b]IM me your email.[/b]

That is, if your account can handle the file size.

goet,

thanks for the offer. i'd take you up on that, but i also have the .pdf. but this is one time where i'd like to read the actual book though. there is just some times whre i do enjoy turning pages and just relaxing. i've actually refrained from starting the .pdf while i've been trying to get a real copy.

i thought for sure it would have been on the shelf somewhere in town, but seem to be a special order only item...or else very popular.

if i don't end up with it this time, i'll probably just order it from amazon in the next couple weeks.

Whereabouts in northern California are you? I'm in the bay area, so it might be worth the drive to pick it up.

Prof. Evil,

I have not read this book, however with the impending birth of my first child I know I will be sitting around and up late at night, so some quality reading material would be great.

edited to say: how's that for a sob story!

Maybe you could do sort of do a "share the book" kind of thing where the next person who wants to read it has to pay the shipping to get it. I have wanted to read this book and would gladly pay shipping on it.

Lostwildcat,
See, you could say you're just doing it for the children and be correct. Save the children, read them a book tonight. My kids got to hear alot of HOTROD, The Varmint Hunter and various reloading manuals when they were rocked to sleep at night.

Ok, Eurotrash is getting it first. He's going to have to send it on and I'm sure will post here when he's finished with it.

AHHH, this is such BS. I was passed up for this offer becuase of my race/gender/sexual orientaion and eye color...I demand a congressional hearing...reparations must be made. Perhaps a special tax can be levied to fund my own personal copy of this book...oh, wait, I know, you just dont want to deliver to my neighborhood huh!!!

Pdf file sent to one. Still available. As far as I know, it doesn't get worn out sending it by email.

I think you should send the book to me.

I just lost my job, and my car broke down.

A tree fell thru my roof, crushing my black and white TV, and the hurricane season rain and winds are destroying my house.

While riding my bicycle to the unemployment office, a Blue Jay flew in my path, striking me and causing me to lose my right eye, and crash thru the neighbors fence, which I must now pay to repair. In the crash, my gun went off and castrated me.

The other day I learned my son is gay, and my cat just now puked on my shoe. I'm typing this on the local library computer.

Seeing my sob story is worse than anyone elses, you should send the book to me. Postage paid.

Have a heart, man.

Oh yeah, and my wife left me for a circus midget.

Alright, I'm going to give you my sob story anyway...maybe eurotrash will send it to me next. I'll be brief. Here is my status as of right now:

1. Getting married in 17 days, so I have NO money.
2. Having NO money means no guns, ammo, etc.
3. Have had none of these for months now.
4. Have had to pick out wedding invites, tuxes, look at bride's maid dresses, china patterns, curtain fabric patterns, etc.
5. Have had to pay for all of the above mentioned with money I don't have.
6. I also had diarhea today, and I'm stuck at work late, AGAIN.

Thank you for your time.

Oh, did I mention the complete lack of "adult relations" over the past month?[V]

No. That's what makes you a socialist commie pinko. [:D]

Please stop using the library computers for non-library related things. [:P]

Ah, yes, there's a quality appeal. I'd almost send it to you, but Eurotrash's name just took the cake. Next time, though, I'll think of you.
