Let's burn books to promote literacy ha ha ha
Hi Prospero’s Books owner, Tom Wayne!
Seriously, Tommy, you are an E-D-IOTT. Burning BEEzillion of books to protest “decline in reading”? I don’t get it, y’all. Well, Kevin said I usually miss the point but what’s that stupid pimp knows anyway? Y’all thinks I’m soooo dumb but HA! HE AIN’T GETTIN’ ANY OF MY MOOLA!
But back to my point, Tommy, I’m missing the point here. REALLY. Burn books to PROMOTE reading? Oh, I’m totally CONFUSED, y’all! Not a good thing coz that makes me drop my kiddies or my nuggets or my panties!
I ain’t reading a book even if y’all put my wig on it anyway. Not even if Justin got it for me. TOTALLY, y’all. I only buy magazines that say I’m Queen Bee and y’know, people LOVE me and IDOLIZE me so that means people ain’t buying books too. Besides, I heard on the radio where y’all play my hit songs that books are SO DEAD so it’s like, NO POINT in burning them. That’s like, double kill, y’know. Tee hee. Get it? DOUBLE. KILL. HA HA HA HA! Seriously, it’s not like people still read coz watching TV is funner, y’all, and many people are illegitimate anyway or whatever that word is for those who can’t read.
Anyhow. Y’all burning the WRONG books anyhow. Those ain’t even popular like the “Bible” or “Moby’s Dick”. What I’m sayin’ is that if y’all need a book sparkling to get attention y’all need a book from someone POP-U-LAR. Like a Queen Bee. Get it, Tommy? Ok. That means ME, in case y’all slow like my stupid new nanny. So. Yeah. I’ll write a book and call it “Make Him Come In My Mouth” and it’ll be like Harry Potter!!! AND THEN Y’ALL CAN BURN IT. :D
Ok? So, bye. Sloppy kisses.
BRIT!!!!!

Loved Britney's letter! :P
Anyway, I know burning books is usually done to prevent people from reading them, but burning books because people won't read them? Errr, that's a new one, and a very stupid one.
Don't tell me there are no libraries in Kansas City that will take those books?
Of all the stupid ideas... seriously.

I'm way confused here, dud!
Should I laugh at the letter or should I cry that some idiot burned books?
Is that letter real? Brit is so illegitimate (whatever those people who can’t write are called) !!!!!!!
Very funny. Tanx Harlot, I needed a good laugh! :-D

I feel sorry for Britney that she was pictured like that. Her face - OMG! Perhaps she had mistakenly eaten baby poop thinking it was chocolate.
9/05/2007 04:55:00 AM
OMG! I'm as dumb as Brit because I don't get it either! Why are they burning those books? I'm all for making people read but burning books to push them in that direction... like Brit, I'm totally missing the point.
(LMAO at that letter!)

Hahaha Britney's expression is priceless!

LOL! That was funny!
Anyway, I guess it's better than burning people because they won't read books or in this case they won't buy your books. :P

"Perhaps she had mistakenly eaten baby poop thinking it was chocolate."
Jolie, that is disgusting! LOL

I don't really keep books. Once I read them I pass them on to my friends or donate them. If some of it ends up getting burned, so be it. People burn junk all the time.

I too do not like this. As they say, burn books today, burn people tomorrow.
No book is completely without any use or worth. If you are so selfish, why not recycle? I would never consider burning books especially when I could find them a new home.

I see a different story here than you. Books are destroyed all the time, though usually by publishers and not booksellers since booksellers can usually return books they can’t sell. In order to make warehouse space, publishers routinely destroy their unsold (i.e., unsalable, unwanted, unremainderable) inventories. Of course, they do so by "pulping" them rather than burning them, and so few know. Authors are spared the shame, and editors the demoralization that comes from such apparent failure and waste. In this sense, books are no different from other commodities: they are often overproduced.
The story I see here is an old story: brick-and-mortar bookstores are a dying business and brick-and-mortar used book stores are already dead, with a few exceptions.

Those people are publicity hounds my online book swapping site offered to go with a truck and pick all the books they didnt want and redistribute among the website members and they did not reponds. They just want publicity for the store!

I don't disagree with a single thing said above. Except...whether it's to bring attention to a cause or publicity to his store, he has certainly done a good job of getting attention. Newspapers, TV, online, hell even he has all of you talking about it... must be something to be said for that.
