Ahh, a kinder, gentler booksellers board; fond memories of Parallel Bar

These days, the way we have to pirouette around what we are saying, it's more like the Barre bar

Alex, the answer is,  "what is music?"

 

 

Terpischore liked to dance,

Though she wore no underpants;

When she danced with Nick Wallenda,

Lotsa trouble she got inta.

Reminds me of Pangloss, his "all is for the best in the best of all possible worlds", and this, the Bookseller's Board is the best in this the best of all possible forums.

ahh, yes, I believe it was first handed to me late one evening in Montana, or was it Colorado? no matter: the sky was big and the stars were everywhere in a deep blue-black sky with the Northern Lights casting a neon light behind the mountains

it was given to me by a man in black, 
a man of song:

 

There are campfire legends that the plains men spin
Of a man who was nothing like Palidin
Couldn't ride couldn't shoot but he won his fame
Cause everything he said said backwards was the same
Palindrome Palindrome what's in a name
Palindrome Palindrome backwards the same

Yes, Palindrome, no one knew where he came from and nobody cared
He rode into town one day from out of the west armed not with six guns a long rifel a whip an knife a chain saw or some other exicitic wepon, No his only means of self defence was his snappy little straw hat and his uncanny ability to speak only in sentences which when spelled backwards are exactly the same as when they were spelled forward.

This board needs more threads like this one and more posts like this one.

Indeed, we do.  And more dancing rats, too.
