[HydroSqueegee]

I'll avoid the hookers and beer response

Instead how about a nice dinner at a classy restaurant. Or a good massage, not the Asian kind, I mean a serious massage.

 

[Mean Mr. Mustard]

give it to me and I will buy something fun and enjoy it on your behalf.

You could use it to fund an elaborate practical joke on your significant other

Go to a used bookstore. It'll go further.

Hookers and blow.

Also why spend it? Save, for your retirement

The used book store near my work is such a fukn joke.
Unless you want paperback romance novels, 10-year old atlases, or shitty pop records from the 80s.

I suggest you change jobs. Hopefully your new employer will have a more satisfactory used book store nearby.

Theres an excellent used book store by the macdonalds across town.
I wonder what the benefit package there is like?

I havent been to a library in years. The books, they are icky, that and I tend to read things, and refer back to them, and contemplate them...

 

[Thorn Bird]

library books are a story within themselves. it's intriguing and yes, icky, to think of the hands that have held the books, but there are so many stories there...i like library books, and i haven't died yet from them, and i've been holding them since i was three.
i can buy the ones i want to have in my collection, but frankly, i have so many now i have nowhere else to put books. i just can't buy every book i read.

Hm. I use to read A LOT, until I realised that I was reading tons, but I wasnt asorbing much. Now maybe 2 reference and 5 fiction a month (I read multiple things at the same time), down from 4~ reference 12-13 fiction.

Right now I think I'm just reading Investment Valuation, a couple quaterly reports that came in the mail (whee free, Halliburton, Potash Corp, BP, and Conoco Philips), and 'Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said'.

 

[Thorn Bird]

i'd like to read stuff other than fiction, but fiction is just so good and it's a getaway for me. i can't seem to get away from it, or WANT to, anyway.

put the cash towards a new mattress
