*A Collection of
Antiquarian Curios & Relics*
"If I were
not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music.
I live my
daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music . . ."
--Albert Einstein
Hey boys and ghouls, you're
listening to classic rock W4. I'm Biff Buster yakking at you from high
atop my perch at the Board of Water & Light building in downtown
Lansing. If you're looking for stax of hot trax on wax, I'll be here all
afternoon as your personal buffoon. Let's start out this 30 minute free
ride with my bestus friend, Bobby Zimmerman aka Bob Dylan, who asks the eternal
question: what would really happen If Dogs Run Free (9781451648799)
17.99 . . .
". . . If
dogs run free, kids books must be,
Sell me, Scott
Campbell,
True pictures
are all we will ask
Something
something something
(Unitelligible)
If dogs run free."
Oh Bobby, Bobby, your vocals are nearly
incomprehensible, but we love you anyway. Somebody call The Police!
They've lost their synchronicity, but David Wilcock has found The
Sychronicity Key (9780525953678) 29.95 and he's darn proud of it . . .
"Daddy see
stars in the distance,
There's only so
much more he can make,
Many miles away
something crawls from the slime from the
Bottom of an
astrological fake."
I lied.
There is one more bill to pay before we can continue with our WWWW 30 minute
free ride. If you've been jonesing for a book that is 50% memoir, 25%
cookbook, 25% Russian history, and 25% watchdog, I have the perfect title for
you. Rife with delicious recipes like gulag stew and fermented
sauerkraut, Anya Von Bremzen's Mastering the Art of Soviet Cooking (9780307886811)
26.00 would have made Julia Child blush with envy. Sign me up, what other
country's cuisine would classify vodka as a condiment, eh? And now back
to the music with Pink Floyd's and Catherine Coulter's The Final Cut (9780399164736)
26.95 . . .
"Through
the fish-eyed lens of a jeweler's eyes,
I can barely
define the shape of this diamond in rhyme,
And who knows
where The Fox still lies,
But Inspector
Drummond will surely find him in time . . ."
And
this is Biff Buster signing off. We're all in this thing together,
whatever it is . . .
Odds
& Sods
Do you remember
Dan Fountain's Michigan Gold? It went out of print, but it was a
steady backlist seller for Partners. Well, I have good news. He's
put together an updated edition called Michigan Gold & Silver:
Mining in the Upper Peninsula (9781938229169) 16.95, which covers the
history of the mining of these minerals in our great state . . .
Hey and how
about those Detroit Lions? I think Super Bowl is within their
grasp. Read about me and other delusional fans in Paula Pasche's 100
Things Lions Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die (9781600787294)
14.95. Reggie, Reggie!
