The library

Finally got back to the library on Monday and checked out some new stuff including:

The Living Dead - anthology of short stories about Zombies. Yeah, that's correct - zombies! You got a problem with that?
Highway to Hell - yet another memoir of life as a mercenary in Iraq.
Who Can Save Us Now - a collection of short stories about new superheroes.

Also found Lauri's book on the science fiction shelf - as seen here (sorry about the poor quality - I used my cellphone):



And I checked out "Seven Samurai" as well as "Hidden Fortress" on DVD. What is really cool to me is to watch Samurai after watching "Magnificent Seven" and being able to match up the characters with the actors who played them in the different versions. There are scenes that are nearly word for word in both versions as well as some theme music segments that sound very similar.

Wow, you've read more in the last week than I think I have all year. What happened to me? I can't wait til our new library opens next to work. I'll be going there on all my lunch breaks!
