You don't even have to read the book on the Kindle - it will read it to you as you sit there and listen, in either a male or female voice. It's like, how lazy can you get? But then you can also listen to it in the dark as you lie in bed.

There is something else about a book - if you buy one, you own it.

If you read it on one of electronic devices, you never own it, they can take it away at any time.
Or make it politically correct. :whistle:

Therefore, it is better that we all read electronic books. Nothing to worry about. :whistle: :whistle:

PS sorry, off topic. How do you make extra money? Well in my line of work, there is a need for two kinds of people that I can think about, off the top of my head:
1) CAD people - you can learn autocad from youtube,
2) PLC programmers. You need some insight in logic/programming/IT.

PS 3) Oh, design work? How about wetlands design? Government here is putting more and more money in that. Read up on willows, alder, beavers, waterfowl, reeds and sedges, mud sedimentation, and you're halfway.

Not to mention the "OH SHIT" moment when the electronics crash and $200 worth of "books" disappear and have to be purchased again. Never had a hard back book crash on me before... once in a fit of anger my wife randomly glued pages together in one of my favorite books, but, that doesn't count.

If the electronics "crash" and you lose the books. if you've purchased them before you can usually download them again for free.

And who was responsible for gluing those pages together? Blaming it on your wife? Right. :lol: :poke2:

Oh you boys have nasty little minds :poke2: It happened to be a copy of "BLUE HIGHWAYS" by William "Leastheat" Moon about his travels around the USA using only the "blue" or state highways on the old state maps visiting such places as Dime Box, Texas (so named because folks who wanted to mail a letter placed the letter and a dime in the box) and many other out of the way places you never see from the interstate.

Few pictures and no nude center folds :lol: :lol:
