An Interesting Discovery, and 100 Girls

I have discovered something interesting. There are very good books available on the Amazon used bookstores, with extremely low prices. Some books on Hollywood that I was looking for, like Gloria Swanson’s memoir Swanson on Swanson is available for one cent, and Frank Capra’s The Name Above the Title for 90 cents. Something like Sin in Soft Focus: Pre-Code Hollywood, a classic that has incredible black-and-white photographs of the pre-censored Hollywood movies and sells for 40$ on the market, is on sale for 8$. In hardcover, to boot.

Considering that shipping prices to India is almost 6-10 dollars per shipment, there is a fair chance that I can order some of these stuff without feeling too much of a pinch. Yum yum yum. Good thing that I am getting a credit card made, eh?

Watched this teen-movie called 100 Girls yesterday, which turned out to be pretty good. Hilarious lines!

This is the love-speech at the end of the movie:

Without you, I’m as lonely as an abandoned dog on the side of a highway.
I have gift anxiety, even through I don’t know when your birthday is.
We can spend perfect days shopping and cleaning together.
I swear, I’ll never make wisecracks when you scrape your tires against the curb while parallel parking.
If you consent to live with me, I’ll clean the toilet every week. I’ll do it with my tongue if you ask.
I will strike the words “hooters” and “love rockets” from my vocabulary.
I’ll love you. Even if your name is Mimi and you want me to pronounce it “May May”.
I will only pass gas underneath the covers and under the direst of circumstances. Hell, I’ll go on a low cholesterol diet.
And I won’t buy one of those red sports cars when I hit my mid-life crisis.
Your parents can come visit us every week, even if your mom is a bitch with a capital B.
And your folks don’t have to go to a retirement home because they can come live with us.
I declare, I’ll separate the whites from the colors and learn the mysteries of hot and cold water washes.
I’ll never huff and puff while waiting for you to put on your makeup.
If you’re a cat person, I’ll never point out the fact that a dog can save your life from drowning, but a cat can’t.
I will happily go see chick flicks with you, like “Pride and Prejudice”.
I’ll make a point to trying new food like okra gumbo. I won’t curl my nose at vegetables whose awful taste is disguised by having cheese on it.
I pledge to always say “yes” when you ask, “Is my hair looking okay tonight?”
I’m gonna bring a whole new meaning to the word “cuddle”.
I’ll be thoughtful enough to read your horoscope every day. I’m gonna save every birthday card you send me!
And I’ll actually write you real letters when we’re apart.
I’m never gonna expect you to know where I left my car keys, and I’ll never leave my socks on the floor.
With me, you’ll find the cap is always on the toothpaste.
I’ll start wearing those bikini style underwear if you like.
My belly button will always be lint free.
I want to full-on kiss your clitoris. It will be the most passionate, intimate experience you’ve ever had.
I declare now, I will give my life for you. And if you fail to come to me, I know some part of me will surely die.

Now, is that good or what?

      Alas, I rarely travel on highways., so I wouldn’t know about the abandoned dogs there. Dogs abandoned elsewhere tend to leap on you in wild …er…abandon.
