| Yes, I have a problem As some of you may know, I have been away from my home this week, and, more importantly, away from my copy of AGOT. Well, after yesterday, I finally broke down. I drove to a mall here in San Jose and picked up another copy of AGOT, so now I can look stuff up and confirm facts for all the crazed theories that we come up with here. Fortunately, the new release of AGOT sells for only $3.99 US, which is about half the normal price for a paperback. So I'm not that crazy, am I? Plus, I finally got my hands on the "Captain of the Guards" free sample chapter. All in all, I think it was a trip well worth it, don't you? Besides, my original copy of AGOT was starting to wear out, so it's always good to have a backup. Aside from the fact that I can't even go a week without AGOT, I'm fairly sane. Right?  |

| Re: Yes, I have a problem Yes Red, your sane. I purchased a downloadable copy of AGoT, ACoF & ASoS from Amazon.com. The beauty of an electronic PDF version is the ability to search for words/phrases. Want to learn more about the nameless ones, a simple search will reveal all there is to know. I've purchased copies of AGoT to hand to people...that's how sane I am. |

Red- you're not crazy. I have one copy of AGoT here at work to have during lunch break, one next to my bed at home, a nice crisp new one on my bookcase, and one spare that is in the hands of my boyfriend.  At least you're not spending the money on drugs! | |

| Re: Yes, I have a problem Guilty as charged. However, I do have a habit of lending my books out. Often I don't count on having them returned to me. Therefore, having at least one copy safe and sound on my bookshelf is necessary. Haha between my parents and my little brother I think they have four or five copies as well. And that's just AGoT. As a family we're singlehandedly paying GRRM a stipend to keep on writing. |
