Thank you for correcting The Laylo Papers. And thanks for your comment on my library. I estimate that I have cataloged about one-third of my books and I expect that it will take some time to enter them all. You also have a great library, but I must admit I have only browsed about 20% of it so far. I look forward to browsing the rest of it.

Yes, I've been noticing how many homeschoolers are here too. We've been at it for 15 yrs now!

Hi, I'm fairly new here and was checking my stats. We share 99 books!

Paul Harvey Aurandt (born September 4, 1918), better known as Paul Harvey, is the listed author of "The Rest of the Story" books. I am hoping all the owners of his books will change the author box to say Paul Aurandt so they will untangle the several authors on the Paul Harvey page.

Yes, it does have a wooden cover. It's weird little book. I've never used it, but I've reads the whole thing a few times. I like the references to "new" drinks that I think of as old-fashioned.

You are the only other person who owns Here's How ! Where did you get yours? My grandmother had mine. I don't know why, as she never drank.

Take care,

OK, i understand about aasp and amp; that's a good idea. Now can i ask about the asterisk as a tag? It seems to be on almost all of your books that i looked at (we share a few), but i didn't work out a significance...?

Snigglefritz! I too am reminded of my German ancestry. My dad used to say things, that I thought were unique to him. But, I now realize a number of his terms were common in Germany. The other term I recall, was that my Dad called my brother, Sonnyboy (doesn't sound too German does it). Then a German friend of mine also used the term and told me his father had applied it to him. I think I asked my Dad about it, and his father (my Opa) had applied the endearing term to my Dad.
H'mm now I'm trying to recall other terms my Dad used to say...

rudely sleeping? gosh! didn't he know that he was supposed to be awake and tell you all of his infinite wisdom! Silly man. ;)

So, it is probably a German term. That's really interesting. My grandfather was born in Germany, but he's lived in America for nearly 80 years, and although he remembers some phrases and words, he cannot tell me what they mean or why he knows them. I've studied the German language so I can try and translate him!

oh, that's wonderful! Where is the Old Country? We are German (Bremen). :)

LOL! I saw Snigglefritz and it reminded me of my grandpa! When we were kids, my brother never paid attention or answered anyone when you called his name...so one day my grandfather called "Hey, Snicklefritz!"...and Jay looked up! So, from then on, he was "Sticklefritz". :D

Perhaps we should develop some sort of new cataloging/tagging language, complete with its own writing system. Sort of like emoticons, only not cheesy. Because clearly, mere English is not enough to convey the nuances of our sophisticated and advanced categorizations, at least not while maintaining brevity.

And "muahahah" would definitely get its own special and menacing symbol.

I think the "aasp" initials to mark books kept in a household member's room makes a lot of sense. Might not work for me, though--I'd be far too tempted to overcomplicate the whole thing and use initials like "iarbsiwsifh" for "in Anna's room but someday I will steal it from her."

I am curious about aasp too!
