I suppose it had to happen sooner or later, but I'm going to miss seeing it in our library.

I have a nice set in a bookcase at home that my ex and I got back in 1972 - black with gold lettering. The books fit beautifully in the bookcase and are still like new. They take up a lot of space, but the +1 says I should keep them.

You never know when you are going to need to know what people knew in 1972.

At the office yesterday, we were just talking about how we used to buy "The Thomas Registry" to find vendors.

Now it's Google.

Or you'll sink like a stone
