so. i've got a free twenty min. on my hands.

i feel sorry for periodicals and referance books. no one likes them. the only time they get touched is when someone wants something from them, to use them like a tool. and once they get what they wanted from them, they'll toss them aside and go back to their happy, sparkly little novels and magazines, leaving the poor periodicals and referance books to collect dust for another six years 'till someone studying the same subject comes along and uses them again. Really, it's gotta be horrible enough for them to be shelved just accross the room from books that people actually love, having to watch the paper/reader romance on a daily basis! why can't someone just curl up with a good biography or dictionary in their spare time, instead of the latest teen vampire drama or bubblegum romance? at least you'd actually learn something from the seasoned biographies, sage thasaurus... give fact a chance!
