Catches of the Day

Sold a stack of astrology books to a dizzy gal with one hand.

Sold a Ben Hecht novel to a fellow named Bjorn with a thick Scandinavian accent (Americans won't buy him, I'm happy someone will).

Sold a mystery off the sale cart to the Homeless Steve Martin mentioned earlier.

Sold a copy of the Complete Beatrix Potter in Spanish to a couple of tourists from Spain.

Sold a couple of anime books to a dude with one eye that was looking at the ceiling to my left.

Didn't sell a weird old edition of Pinocchio to a kook who was disenchanted by the fact we couldn't provide a copy in the Italian for him to check the translation against.

C'est la vie!
