 Whoo, so it's January 1st, 2020 and I was organizing my books, organizing my house, as you can see from all this mess on my desk, and I want to do a video where I mention or maybe describe all of the books that I bought in 2019. And that's just because I ended up organizing them on this desk, and why not? Maybe someone is interested. Some of these I've actually talked about, but this is just an idea. They're around 80 or so of these books. I'm not quite sure. I think I did a little count that was somewhere around 80, but I might have missed a couple. So I'm gonna talk about all the books that I've gotten this year. Some of them I've read, some of them I just got as a reference, some of them I just got just to have them because they're historically important books. And I will say I got, I think this is probably more books than I usually buy, and that's because when I moved to the place where I am now, I found this store where I can get used books really cheap. Anyway, so I'll go ahead and start going through them all, and they're more or less in the order that I bought them in. So the first book I've got this year was actually the only linguistics book I got. If you don't know, I'm a PhD student in linguistics. Theoretically, I'm supposed to be working on a dissertation. I got this book. It's by Jeff Samson, Schools of Linguistics. It's sort of on historical schools and linguistics. I wanted this, this is a resource because I don't have my University library around, but this is, I am glad to say this is the only linguistics book I got this year. Actually, there's another one I bought, but it hasn't arrived yet. It's Norvin Richards' Richard's Conaguity Theory, and I also got the Manga Guide to Statistics, and it hasn't arrived either. Anyway, so the second book I got, I actually did a video on this book. It's called Everything I Want to Do is Illegal. I highly recommend it. It's a really good read. It's actually written by, well, you can watch my video on that if you want the full details, but it's written by a guy who is a farmer, and it's just about his frustration with the bureaucracy he has to deal with. Highly recommended. Everything I want to do is illegal. Very good book. Next book I got. This is Devavani Praveshika. This is basically a primer in Sanskrit, and I've wanted this book for a long, long time, like 10 years I've wanted this book, and I finally found it at a no-kate price. It's actually not that expensive. I really just wasn't looking. It's also notable because in the Library of Congress system of classification, its book number is PK666, so ooh. But it is, yeah, it's a primer in the Sanskrit language. It's one of the best I've ever seen, if you're interested in learning Sanskrit. I actually, I've gone through a little bit of this so far, but I haven't used it as much as I intended to. I really just wanted it as a resource. I've wanted this book for a long time, since I first started my undergrad, because I was really interested. It's hard to get good resources on Sanskrit, but this is definitely, definitely one of them. Next book I got was The Golden Vow, which I actually have not read this book. It's supposed to be, well as it says, on the roots of religion and folklore. Actually a theme of this year. I got a lot of stuff that's like folklore and then esoteria. I went through a little phase earlier in the year when I got a bunch of that stuff, but I have not read this. I'm pretty sure this is something Varg recommended. I didn't get it just because he recommended it, but I know that he said he likes it. But I think it's one of those old British books, if you know, that sort of mindset. That sort of materialist mindset. So the next thing I got, actually a couple books all in one sitting, I asked my subscribers, you guys, since I'm moving to this remote place where I can do gardening and stuff, I wanted some books, you know, what's good for gardening? Like what is a good resource to have that is, you know, a long standing book that people rely on. And I got a couple suggestions and I got all of these pretty cheap. So I should say, where do I get my books? First off, I nearly never buy something new unless it's just like cheaper for whatever reason. I always get used books. I get them from either eBay or the site Biblio. That's Biblio.com. I never, ever, ever use Amazon. Amazon is always more expensive. Amazon is also a demonic corporation. So I use eBay or Biblio. So that's where I get all of these books, except for the ones I'll talk later on about. I found them in physical stores, used bookstores. But I got Reader's Digest Illustrated Guide to Gardening. I've used this a lot. And another person that people recommended a lot is John Seymour. He has the Complete Book of Self-Sufficiency and the Self-Sufficient Gardener. Both of these have been really, really useful. And I got some other things as well. He has a little book called Gardener's Delight. It's not an instructional. It's more like just sort of anecdotes about different plants. I skipped over it, but I also, I said I was getting esoteria kind of stuff. I had the Rosicrucian Enlightenment by Francis Yates. This book wasn't quite what I expected. I really wanted to learn about Rosicrucianism. There's a little bit of that in this, but this is more like a historical kind of thing. I didn't actually read the whole thing though, so I can't, I'm not gonna say it's bad or something like that. Anyway, related to the gardening stuff, I also got David the Good. He's a YouTuber. I got his book, Totally Crazy Easy Florida Gardening, which has been really nice. It's very small, but it's a really nice resource. It's just since I'm living in Florida too, I wanted some region specific thing. Basically what it amounts to is you gotta grow the right crops. And it definitely, this book has changed my ideas of like what I want to grow around here. You know, more of a preference to yams and stuff over things like potatoes that apparently in his experience don't grow as well. We'll see how that goes. I'll probably be planting a lot of stuff in the spring and just see what works. So another thing I got, I got a, this is a Greek New Testament, you know, in Koine Greek or whatever. I just did not have this and I wanted this. I have had for a long time a Greek and Latin byglotic Bible. Where is that actually? I think that's in the other room. But I've had that since I was a little kid or in high school at least, but I finally got a Greek New Testament and this is a nice resource. Still smells good, even though I got it like halfway through the year. Related sort of to that, I got the Nag Hammadi Library. Nag Hammadi Library is, for those who don't know, is a bunch of old early Christian and Gnostic texts that were found. I forget we're in Nag Hammadi, wherever that is. Is that in Egypt? I don't even remember. Who cares? But this is a collection of their translations in the English. Very interesting stuff. Not just Christian stuff, but also Gnostic and also Hermetic stuff. Speaking of which, let's see. I got a couple things that were related to Hermeticism. Now, one of my favorite buys actually of this year was when I got the Corpus Hermeticum. This book itself is actually terrible. I mean, like, in terms of printing, it's terrible. I really want to reprint this book. It's just like someone did it in Microsoft Word and there are a bunch of errors. But the content I really enjoyed, Hermeticism is a very old philosophy. Around the time, at least of Christianity, they pretend to be even older. But it's just an interesting philosophical, religious view that I guess was educational. Again, I'm actually thinking of republishing. In law tech, I'm working up a side-by-side of the Greek original and an English translation and I want to end up publishing that. I haven't mostly done most of the hard stuff done, but anyway, I haven't worked on it in a while. So that was a good buy. A book that's on that is The Caballion. This is like a book written much later. It's sort of a commentary on it. I think it's mostly like modern editions and it's supposed to be talking about alchemy and stuff like that. I think it's not actually historical, but I guess it's an interesting book if you want to understand. This is sort of in between the original Hermetic texts and like the sort of modern interpretation, which is more like New Age stuff. But I did get some of that stuff related. Hold on. I did, as I said, I got some esoteria this year. A lot of other sort of New Age stuff just to sort of see what it was like because I usually make fun of that kind of stuff. A lot of it is based in Hermetic writings. So I got, what is there, Blavatsky's books, The Voice of Silence and Kita Theosophy. I think she's crazy. I think these books are mostly like total nonsense. But it's interesting to read. It's one of those things that I find interesting to read. So I don't regret getting them again. All these books, like it might sound like a lot. I'm getting these for like three or four bucks on eBay or wherever. And I also got the story of Edgar Cayce, again, related to sort of New Age stuff. There is a river. This is sort of his biography. Weirdly enough, I found some of my grandparents stuff. I found like an essay that was taken from this book. And I sort of wonder why my grandparents who aren't alive anymore had that. But I think one of them was involved in like an Edgar Cayce society or something. If you don't know who he is, he was like this alleged psychic in the 20th century. And there's a bunch of New Age stuff associated with him. So I thought it was sort of weird that my grandparents were somehow associated with that. My grandfather was a Freemason, though. I don't know. Some of that stuff is related. Anyway, other things. I accidentally bought two of these. One from Biblio and one from eBay because I forgot I got it. This is just handy farm devices. It just has nice little ideas for things you can build simply to, you know, make farm life more easy or something like that. So I got two of them, but they were so cheap. So it's not a big loss. I got the Common Book of Prayer. I'm not an Anglican, but out of interest, I just got this. So it's a pretty old copy. Let's see how old this is actually. I remember it being, ooh. Well it says, I think its original publication was in 1893, but I don't know when this one was published. It doesn't look like it's much older than 70-something, but anyway. After that, so I began buying, because I was teaching classes on literature, I started buying up a bunch of classical literature that I happened not to have. I got Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. This is the Canterbury Tales in the original Middle English. So it's not a translation into modern English. That's something I wanted I didn't have. Another thing, this is another sort of Bible thing. I got the Septuagint. This is the Greek, the original Greek translation of the Old Testament that was made before Jesus or anything like that. So it has the original Greek in the middle, and it has English translations on the margins. And so this is an ice book. It sort of goes with the Greek New Testament that I got. So here you have the complete Bible between the two of them. But that's something I wanted to have I didn't have. I got also Archaofuturism, which I've been meaning to get for a while. I finally found it. A lot of these books by Arctos, they're a little expensive to be honest. But I got this one, and I wanted to have it for a while. I have not actually read it though, but I'm sure it's fine. I'm sure it's good. But the author Guillaume de Fay, he recently died, I want to say maybe this year or the year before. And I found this cheap. It's used. It's not marked in, so I got it. Other classical literature, actually a lot of classical literature. And when I say classical, I mean from many ages. One of them is Paradise Lost, and some of John Milton's other writings and stuff like that. Paradise Lost, again that's a story, but that's of Satan's fall from heaven and stuff like that. That's an epic poem in English, I assume you learned about it. But if you live in an English-speaking country, I assume you learned about it in high school. Another, this is a great buy that I got. This is Ted Hughes, his Tales from Ovid. This comes from Ovid's Metamorphoses. It's not really a translation of the whole thing. It's more of an adaptation of 24 stories, I think, from the Metamorphoses. It's not the whole thing. The Metamorphoses, maybe I should explain. This was written a little around the time, a little after the death of Julius Caesar during the rise of the Roman Empire. It is a collection of somewhat irreverent Roman mythology. There are a bunch of stories about the gods and stuff, and a lot of them are a little obscene or something like that. But I got this, and it was a great buy. This translation or adaptation by Ted Hughes is really readable. This is like something, a lot of these books that I get like Paradise Lost, I got that. I don't expect to actually read that through, but this is actually very readable. And I use it for my class. I found a PDF version of it, and I PDF to text it, and then I cut it up in chapters and compiled it in law tech, and I actually use that for my classes. I gave individual readings from each of the stories to my students. So I definitely recommend if you're at all interested in that. Now if you're a purist, again it's an adaptation. It's not like actually the word for word translation, although some parts are pretty word for word, but it's a good read at least. I got this sort of fancy looking copy of The Death of Arthur by Thomas Mallory. This is sort of the, first off this book is huge. I did not realize how long the death of Arthur is. It is hundreds of pages, and these pages are very, very thin. They have little illustrations. I forget who publishes this, but you know, it's some... I think I got this new because it was pretty cheap. Let's see, Nickerbocker classics. So it's a little fancy looking. I got a little oil stain here though once when I was reading it. You can still sort of see it. But yeah, so Thomas Mallory's The Death of Arthur. This is, I forget when exactly it was written. I want to say 1300 maybe a little after that. I don't quite know. But it's a collection of Arthurian stories, really the whole thing, frankly, although his rendition of them. Okay, I'm throwing all these on the couch, and the couch is getting a little full. Other classic stuff. I had Dante's Inferno. I did not have the entire Divine Comedy, so I got a translation of that by Clive James. This is, I think it purports to be in rhyme, but it's, I want to say, is it actually in Tertzema? I don't know. I don't know if it's in the original rhyme scheme. Tail, fail, flood, stand, flow. I don't think it is unless my brain is, oh no, no, no. I think it is. No, no, it's not. It's just in, you know, normal ABAB rhyme or whatever. So it's not in Tertzema, but I don't, I didn't find this translation very good, I guess. I mean like not fetching at least, but you know, whatever. I got it. I don't regret it. More classic stuff. I got, you know, the prose and poetic edda, classics that I had at least, you know, the equivalent of Viking folklore that I figured I might as well get. The prose edda is, of course, later. Both of them are compiled by Snorri Storrelson, but the poetic edda probably predates that by quite a good bit. I have not actually read all these. I might be using them for my class though next semester. We'll see about that. Other little things. I just sort of got random books. Actually related to Arthur and the Grail, I did get The Once and Future King. This is a modern novelization of Arthurian folklore. C.S. Lewis's The Screwtape Letters. I found this, this thing is falling apart, but I found it for like 25 cents, so I had to take it. If you don't know, this is like, The Screwtape Letters is a book by C.S. Lewis that's supposed to be written by a demon to another demon, and he's trying to tell him how to seduce, or not seduce, but lead someone into sin or something like that. It's a very interesting read because it talks about human failings. Let's see. The Argonautica. Jason and the Argonauts. I got a little copy of this. It was super cheap, but he used Bookstore. Might as well get it. Ben Hur. People mostly know Ben Hur from the movie, but I found this, and I was like, you know what? I might as well get it. Why not? One of those one things with the big cases. Ben Hur is this old movie. Well, again, people think of it mostly as a movie. It originally was sort of a pre-boomer novelization that isn't, it's sort of, I guess people maligned it as being common, but it's a story about a guy who lived as a contemporary of Jesus, and the story is ultimately about his life, but it's relevant also to, I guess, the story of Jesus and stuff like that. Boomers ate it up. Okay, they loved it. Okay, so we're getting a little, oh, I've been sitting on my foot. It hurts. I'm sorry. Another novel I got, La Tabla de Flandes. This book, I have not read actually. This is, I guess, the first book that's in Spanish in my, at least this year's haul. I usually don't read novels. I usually also don't read them in other languages. So the guy who wrote it, there's a movie that I know was made. What is it? The Ninth Gate? That's based on a novel that's also by this guy. Arturo Perez Rivera. Okay, but La Tabla de Flandes, I heard good things about it. I got it. Maybe I'll read it at some point, but I haven't yet. Other classics, The Brothers Grim Fairy Tales. These are sort of cutesy. This is like, I think, the children's appropriate version, but that's what that is. And one other one, I think this is the last one that I got online. All the rest of the books are ones I got in person, but the last one is Five Great Encyclicals. These are just five different, or encyclicals, not essays. Condition of Labor, Christian Education of Youth, Christian Marriage, Reconstructing the Social Order, and Atheistic Communism. That's five different encyclicals from different popes. It says 25 cents on it, but I paid more than that, but not that much more. All right, so the other books, which I'm going to bring over here, the other books I bought at, basically the place I moved recently, there is a little bookstore where this old lady who goes to our church, she sells books. She doesn't even know how great the books she has are. Well, some of them she'll charge me a lot more for, but if she doesn't know it, she'll just ask 25 cents for a book or something like that. So I have bought all of these books from her, many, many books, and it's a good deal. I have ended up giving her a lot of money, not just for this. I also buy other things from her. So one that Sophocles, the Thebian plays, that is King Oedipus, Oedipus at Colonus and Antigone. I haven't read these since high school, but it's nice to have this. I actually ended up getting a lot of Sophocles stuff, because I forgot I had already bought another one. I'll talk about that in a second. Actually, maybe I can... Yeah, so for example, Sophocles' Elektra and other plays, Philip Tidy to Philip Titties, Women of Trachus, Elektra and Ajax. I don't know all of those. I know the characters, but I don't actually know all of these plays. And Sophocles, the Complete Works, just in case I didn't have those. And four famous Greek plays. I don't think all of these are Sophocles. Let's see, yeah. It does have Atabistic King, but it also has Agamemnon, which is not by Sophocles, Media. That's the girl in Jason and the Argonauts, right? And then the Frogs. I'm not quite sure. There might be another Media. Anyway, so here's a little book. This is an old Boomer book. I've just seen it alluded to in Boomer Circle, so I decided to get it. It was like, you know, 25 cents, why not? Games People Play by Eric Berney. Berne, maybe? Here is a classic. This is Beyond Equality, Labor and the Radical Republicans by David Montgomery. I ran into that and got that. An old Libertarian classic, Economics in One Lesson. I actually already have this book, but I got this because, again, it was cheap. And I just like older editions of things. I just always feel like they're better in some reason. So Henry Haslitz, Economics in One Lesson. That's a cute read if you want to understand how Libertarians think, I guess. Let's see. A Myth of Innocence. I have not read this. This is, I want to say something about Jesus. Yeah, it is about Jesus. I have not read it. I can't, you know, say anything about it. It's by Mack, who is this about? Burton L. Mack. I don't know anything about the guy. But, again, it was cheap. I got it. Epica Gilgamesh, classic. Got that one as well. Peter Brimlow's Alienation. A nearly new copy. It looks very... I forget when this was written. I think it was in the 90s. But, again, it was at the store. It was at the used bookstore. Let's see. I don't know when it was written. 92. Or wait, no. Oh, who cares? In the 90s at some point. So classic Peter Brimlow. Agatha Christie's Death on the Nile. Why not? I was thinking about making my class read this, because why not? I don't know. It was just because there's a movie with it, so you can watch the movie. It's a possibility. Also, it's a whamen author. I need to include more whamen authors. You know, someone's going to complain. Oh, here's another good find. Again, this is at the old bookshop. Socialism. Utopian and scientific by Engels. Didn't expect to find it, but I did. It's very short, though, but, you know, still a good find. Other, let's see. Self-teaching library for mathematics. Just a little teaching book on math. Nice to have, you know. Book on the Jesuits. Again. Oh, here's a Boomer classic right here. How to Win Fluorines and Influence People by Dale Carnegie. I saw that, and I was like, every Boomer has this in their library. I got to get it. I mean, it's some kind of self-help kind of book. It was self-help before self-help was a real thing. So it's probably less sad than most self-help books nowadays. Green Thumb, The Gardening Handbook. Found that at the shop. Picked that up. And whoops. The Seedling Handbook. So other gardening stuff, again, useful. I also got, this is, I got this from another bookshop. It was a little more expensive. I think it was like $2. But it's vegetables every day. I work with, you know, where everything's vegetable-based. It's not vegetarian. Nearly everything has a little bit of meat in it. But it's very nice. Well, not nearly everything, but a lot of stuff. But it's really like how to make use of the vegetables you grow. So I figured that would be nice to have. Other sort of interesting category stuff. So Encyclopedia of Common Diseases. Family Medicinal Guide. You never know when it's going to come in handy. And the Folk Remedy Encyclopedia. All sort of related medical things. You can read yourself medical stuff. And, you know, I figured the complete book of knitting, why not? You know. So other stuff that's maybe more relevant. The Feast of Leviathan. This is a collection of Jewish folklore. I have not read it yet. Edited by a Leo Schwartz. I don't know what else in it. But maybe I'll find out when I read it. The Letters of Pliny. Or Pliny, a self-portrait. So this is, I think it, yeah, it is actually his own writing. So Pliny, a famous Roman historian or writer. I think he did a little bit of history, but I don't know what people would call Pliny. Is he an orator? I don't actually know. And here's another classic. Charles Beards. An economic interpretation of the Constitution of the United States. Not to say that I like the book, but it's one of those classics. This is one of these books. The argument is sort of dispelling the magical thought behind the founding fathers. Basically, this book argued that a lot of the, you know, self-interest in the self-interest of property owners defined a lot of the founding of the United States, stuff like that. It's one of the sort of material interpretations of history kind of thing. Probably by someone who wouldn't call themselves a Marxist, but, you know, sort of is at least influenced by that kind of line of thinking. Sigmund Freud's Civilization and Its Discontents. I found this just yesterday, I want to say. Again, very short. Everything that Sigmund Freud wrote is garbage, but I figured I might as well take it off the shelf. I haven't read Sigmund Freud since I was in high school. I had a big, his complete work, so I think I checked out from the library and I read through. It's all garbage, but, you know, whatever. You might as well have it. Here's another classic. Painting as a Pastime by Winston Churchill. Just because it's written by Winston Churchill. I don't know. I think there's a story behind the book. And another book that was a let down is the Q document. If you don't know what Q is, it is a book. It is a hypothetical gospel that is thought to have been read by the writer of the Gospel of Matthew and the writer of the Gospel of Luke. It's called Q. This is actually just a novel about it, which is utter nonsense. I saw it multiple times at the bookstore and I always thought about getting it, and I figured I mean she's just going to sell it to me for at most 50 cents, so I might as well get it. Even though it's a novel about something probably they don't actually know about. Okay. Last bit here. Almost through. How long is this video? Actually, oh jeez, yeah. This is like the longest I've ever had a video, probably. So, Don Taste of Uncomedy. This is a much better translation, but this is only part one, the Inferno, or they translated hell. I think this actually, yes. This actually is in Tertzarima, the third rhyme, the rhyme scheme that it was originally invented by Dante. I guess I've never talked about that on my... I need to, you know, Dante... I've done a video on Dante Algieri a couple, you know, months ago. But I think talking about the divine comedy, I think it warrants a video in itself, so maybe I'll do that eventually because there's so many interesting things about this. So it is in third rhyme, but it's not very good. One thing I don't like when people... If you're going to translate poetry, at least make the poetry in the language you're translating it to good, and I feel like this one, you know, maybe the third rhyme doesn't really work in English. Who cares? Beowulf, I didn't have it, I got it. Bart Ehrman's Lost Christianities. This I actually got in another bookstore where when I was off at Christmas I got a pretty cheap. This is by Bart Ehrman. He's a relatively famous Biblical scholar, scholar of the New Testament, however you want to put it. The Death of a Nation. This is an old Paleo-Conservative book by John A. Stormer. I have not read it, again found it. Got it for 25 cents. Perfect. Oh, another Paleo-Conservative book. The Bloober book of the John Birch Society. Ooh, it has a little messed up thing on the back, but figured why not, you know, learn about the Communist menace, stuff like that. That's another nice thing to find. Now, one of my biggest finds at this book, I did not expect to find this book, was Henry Ford's The International Jew. I found this at the bookstore, and I was a little surprised, and I was like, oh, I definitely want this. A book of this historical importance. But I'm going to feel weird checking this out, but I ended up getting it. So The International Jew, the world's foremost problem. I'm glad I found a copy of this one. Speaking of which, sort of related maybe, is this is William Shire's The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. I actually don't buy that many history books, but this one, again, she was selling it cheap. Look at that, you got this nice little picture of the Third Reich here. So, I guess it's nice to have. And then I got a couple books on Freemasonry, The Morals and Dogma, of the ancient and accepted rite. This is like the classical tome of Freemasonry. Who's it by? I always forget the guy's name. Albert Pike, yeah. So this is a famous, if you're in Freemasonry or you're one of those people who is extremely suspicious of Freemasonry, you probably know this book, because it basically goes through explaining what Freemasonry is about, what do they believe, what are the teachings of it, stuff like that. It's all sort of coded and stuff, but you can sort of understand it. And this is another one, what is it? The mystery of symbolism of the three degrees. That's another Masonry thing. Okay, Introduction to the New Testament by Werner Gorg Kermel. Is that one name or three? Yeah, it's just one guy named Kermel. This I think is like critical history, or historical criticism, whatever you want to call it. I don't think it's like, you know, sort of Liberty University stuff, at least that's what I'm saying. But I haven't actually read this, picked it up at the bookstore. It's a good story compilation, compiled by Isaac Asimov. It's Before the Golden Age. Science fiction anthology of the 1930s. I have not read anything from this, but again, good to have it. And oh, another classic I got, The Great Gatsby. She charged me more for this one, because she had heard about it, but you know, whatever. I wouldn't have bought it if it was actually a couple dollars, but Edgar Allan Poe Reader got, let's see, I want to say, it might only be some of his, yeah, I think that's only some of his works, but I did not have anything by Edgar Allan Poe, which is sort of weird. Lord of the Flies. You remember it from high school. Oh, and last, I got this not too bad copy of Virgil's Aeneid. It does have a little tear up here, but this is the Harvard classics, their version of the Aeneid. This actually, I remember the translation being not that bad. This is by John Dryden, I want to say, who I think was translating years and years ago, I think he has like some slant rhyme and stuff, but in general, this was a good, I remember reading through this and I was like, oh, this is actually a pretty good translation. I'm very picky about translations. Usually I read things, if I know the language well enough, I read them in their original language. So, aside from that, that is basic, and the Manga Guide to Statistics, and excuse me, what's the other one? Coneguity Theory. That's all the books I got this year. I thought about doing a video like this last year. Oh, look at that. I cleaned up all of my coffee table now. Except for now, look at all this mess. Geez, Louise, I'm gonna have to clean that up. Anyway, well, I'm redoing my bookshelves, as you can see. So, those are all the books that I bought. So, most of them I've at least gone through. Some of them I just won as a reference, but no regrets. I don't know how much, I need to do math of how much I actually spent on all these books, but let's just say it wasn't that much. Maybe more than, maybe 200, maybe 300 bucks. Actually, that sounds like a lot now that I say it, but it was definitely worth it to have all this, although I'm running out of space. One of the first things I'm gonna do, carpentry-wise, is I gotta make new bookshelves, because these things I'm using as bookshelves, they are not very wide, they're not very good. I need desperately to have more space, because originally I had three of these things, I filled up all three of them, adding all these books to my collection, and I'm gonna run out of room on my other shelves as well. So, I need to make more efficient bookshelves. So, that's it. Those are my books. See you guys next time.
