Does anyone remember the end of Fahrenheit 451?

The book, not the film.

The left bans a book, creates more division and hatred, and then the Right retaliates. This is another reason why the two party system must be eliminated

Imagine being the person that paid $150 for a dozen Twinkies.

And the problem is? Twinkies are worth it and Ding Dongs even more.

“One of the books, And to Think That I Saw it on Mulberry Street, is going for $20,000 “

That’s baloney and very easy to verify. One that actually sold was for 1500 and it was signed in 1937. None are actually selling for 20k.

Several years ago, on ABE Books, there was a story about “And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street” and how it sold on their web site for $11,000.

It was a First Edition, First Printing.

Yep. How many are sitting on bookshelves in Grandma’s house, in garage sales, etc. They’ll start turning up. It’s a gamestop alright.

My grandson has a first edition of “Scrambled Eggs Super”. I wonder what it is worth.
