I can tell the dollar is in the toilet because today's endless parade of tourists from the UK are are throwing cash around like confetti at a victory parade.
A stately older gentleman inquired about the price of a title on the Arts & Crafts movement in California & replied to my answer with "eminently reasonable...I'll take that one.".
Which is a far cry from the usual run of customer interactions, po-faced ejaculations like is this a library? and that perennial classic where's the nonfiction section!?
Also, it's an excellent excuse to pimp Black Books, the greatest comedy series of all time (and not just because it stars a misanthropic used book dealer).
