Never a Dull Moment

Since we are a small store, we must limit the genres that we carry - we don't carry psycho-babble self-help books; best sellers unless they are best sellers that have proven their enduring worth, and then only in First Editions;  popular biographies of glitterati; or the rest of the genres we consider to be crap. An individual came in yesterday looking for sociology, which we don't have. He then asked for Kalil Gibran, which we do. Then came the real question: "Where are your books on hemp ?"
Popular aids to delusion we don't have, either. Then came my education for the day when he told me, and I quote: "You need to research hemp, man ! It's the only thing that'll save us from those who are going to come to destroy the
Earth !"
