I forgot about Vonnegut
I didnt realize until sometime late yesterday that I had read so much of his work. I also had forgot how long it had been since I had read his stuff. My step dad was/is a reformed hippie and he introduced Vonnegut to me in highschool by making me read a Vonnegut book (on a dare, not through force). Over the rest of my highschool years I read more of his titles: Breakfast of Champions, Welcome to the Monkeyhouse, God Bless you Mr Rosewater, and Hocus Pokus that I can remember.

So, needless to say, I like thousands (hopefully) of others, will be scouring local used bookstores looking for Vonnegut's work. I hope that I can find them for less than 5$ a title.

btw, I looked on the website for my local library and they had three titles, that's it. I guess it's not a surprise to me because around these parts, South Georgia, the library is seen as free movie rental outlet and little more.
