I got a bunch of sci-fi....Asimov and Heinlein mostly. I also picked up the other three books in the 2001 series. And I got the book for Solaris which I know and love as a Tarkovsky movie and refuse to acknowlegde the existence of as a George Clooney movie. I picked up a bunch of Mark Twain's stuff too, for as well read as I am, I have neglected Twain. I've never read Tom Sawyer or Huck Finn. The best score was Sir Gwain and the Green Knight translated by none other than JRR Tolkein....I didn't know he had done anything like that, I thought he only did original fiction. It will be interesting to see how he handles it.
Sorry you couldn't make it out, it would have been good to hang out. I will probably not be up again until Easter and that's assuming it is at my brother's rather than my parents' house. Once I get my car up and running in the spring I may come up just for a couple days when most of the people I want to see are not out of town. Most everyone I was looking forward to seeing had left to go home fro Chistmas.
