  I can scoop up the good ones!

Funny to hear Half Price Books referred to as a "chain used bookstore", 
since I used to go to the very first one in Dallas and my husband worked for 
them when they opened up in Austin. They certainly didn't start out as a 
chain; started out as a single used bookstore filling a need and grew as the 
need did. Shame on them! ;-)
