 Well, I am now reading Hemingway. I just finished DOCTOR ZHIVAGO which was a serious novel about serious people in serious circumstances in a world upside down....and now I am reading about Hemingway and his shallow frat-boy, wise-ass buddies talking smart to each other and getting drunk and screwing each other's girlfriends....( except Jake Barnes because he's impotent...) We are now on the way to the bullfights in Spain but first we have to stop and be smart-asses while fishing for some trout in Spain..... I think I will start talking like Hemingway writes.... |

 " Eduardo got up in the morning and belched. Then he went to the bathroom to take a crap. While sitting on the throne he found a discarded brandy bottle in the tub that he had mislaid the night before. He bit the cork out of it and took a slug while finishing up his original chore...."  |

 " Yuri Zhivago knew that life was important and that it had meaning and that it could be wonderful if you can separate yourself from all the junk that goes around you....but in Hemingway's books his characters ARE the junk! " |

 At the book sale a couple of weeks ago I snagged a hardcover copy of The Washing of the Spears by Donald R Morris in MINT condition....I stole it for $4......hee hee I had read it years before in 1987 just before I left for Africa, amazingly....all about the Zulu Empire and their final fight with the Brits..... Anyway, I lost my old soft cover years ago when we left Africa and lost all of our furniture and appliances and clothes and stuff....it's another long story.... |

![Image result for circles in a forest [book]](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/8d/94/b9/8d94b9ea2b344cc1544918812f101450--about-elephant-an-elephant.jpg "Image result for circles in a forest [book]") An excellent book that I read years ago when I was actually in Africa. About the elephants and the woodcutters in the Knysna Forest...  I spent two weeks on location on a drilling rig outside of Port Elizabeth...not far from the area talked about in this novel...    |

 I ordered two of these bookcases a couple weeks ago....they arrived. My son-in-law and I are going to put them together in a couple days.... They are over six feet high and 35 inches wide....they will hold 20 linear feet of books combined!  very snazzy! Mine are "Salt Oak" like the big picture above....  |
