I recently discovered the most amazing place - it's called a "library". Here's the deal: they have all these books, - some of 'em you actually would want to read - and they let you just borrow them. It's like this - you go there, pick a book, take it home, read it, and all you have to do is return it when you're done with it. And here's the completely crazy part, it costs NOTHING! They don't charge money! Seriously!! But wait, it gets better! There is apparently one of these in most every town, and they all share their books. So if you want to read a book, and the local library doesn't have it, that library borrows it from another library and then you just pick it up! It's crazy! Basically, you can get almost any book you want. And there's more! They also have videos! All for the same deal, free!! Yes, I'm seriously not kidding! Admittedly, the video selection isn't as wide - they don't tend to have a lot of new releases - but for older stuff, you absolutely can't beat it. They have books on tape, and other stuff too.I can't even begin to understand why and how they do this, but I don't want to question it too much. God bless 'em, though.
