I Left Out George Steinbrenner

Making this was fun--you type in names and Condemn them, Redeem some if you change your mind, then run through deciding who's more evil--but I think some of my Condemned got maybe a little too serious. I also had too many of them, so I had to Squish the theatre talkers and Domino's drivers.

Taking in strays... yeah I have a few of those myself. ;)

I wish the donation-to-charity issue were less of a knot. The problem is, the discard books run the gamut from "my dog threw up on it" to "yet another copy of the Da Vinci Code of the 100s we had to buy and this one is just a bit shabby." No one wants the former; even the latter is iffy. Make that a shabby unknown thriller and no one will ever pick it up. Sorting through those piles is... impossible; it's thousands and thousands of books, if not tens of thousands. All you can do is shrug.
