a suit of armor by the dooe r - a large globe at the center - oh and framed antique newspapers on the wall???
ROFLOL! I haven't taken it that far, yet.
The old English formal libraries just do it for me. Until that time, I have just mashed in all the bookcases that I can fit into my house and then discovered the instant gratification of electronic books.
And I have a list from listening to talk radio of books that I want to purchase. I was listening to the interview with James O'Keefe today, about his new book that is out, and had to add that to the list.
:-)
Sooo.. do you know where I can get a suit of armor... cheap? hehehe
