I gained an interest in biographies about ten years ago, and when I decided to buy them rather than check them out at my local library, I got the idea to highlight them. What really sparked it was the fact that I owned the books, and it occurred to me that I could do whatever I wanted with them. I used to loan them out and let my friends do the same, but I have lost more than a few books in this manner and no longer do it.
I think we don't do certain things because we pigeonhole ourselves, or live in a paradigm - for whatever reason; so now I act as I see fit! They're your books, do as you see fit. Hope this helps.
To keep track of my books, I used to write the date, the name of the person and of the book in three-column table I printed. for the most part, it served its purpose. However, to this day, I still haven't got back my pocket book edition of Othello.
They're your books, do as you see fit. -- It's a great advice. Thanks!

We've been writing in a cook book lately. You can see the little symbol my wife started using to rate the recipes after we cook them: http://i.imgur.com/xdh9i.jpg
She did it to make fun of how much time I spend on Hubski. So far, 3 have "8 wheels" and 1 with only 5. -Thai Peanut Curry. The cookbook is Clean Food by Terry Walters, its been really good so far. It was a recommendation from fr33lunch

Ha! Just take a sharpy and draw one on there. The book is awesome! We've made 4 meals thus far and I think that the best one has been the Shepherds Pie. We've started cooking on Sundays for the week. Hope school is going well. Whore.
