Cigar Bum Pipe Tobacco Give-a-Way- Week 3

[Cool Breeze]

Thanks to Tobias and bull for the contest!

If you all couldn't tell by my posts, I have a young child and not much time for reading books of my own choice (or maybe I enjoy and prefer Dr Suess, you be the judge)!

I bet you're curled up with a bowl of baccy and a blanket reading Green Eggs and Ham right now.

Charles Marlow's first appearance was in my favorite Conrad story: Youth. The description of pumping water into the ship to put out the coal/cargo fire, which of course makes the ship founder, is one of the most harrowing descriptions of peril I have ever read. Good choice, C-man.

It was your Melville post that made me think of Conrad. I was about to post Ray Bradbury! I haven't read Youth, but now I will soon.

I'll be 35 this month so I'll be old enough to run.

However I would piss both parties off so badly I probably wouldn't get a single vote. Well, maybe my mom and a few of you bums.

Well...we have winners GALORE!

The random draw for the seven tins is @fastnbulbous !!!!

We also had FOUR guys guess within 25 books of my actual count 1246. Keep in mind that I bought another ~50 books since the contest started, but to be fair, I stuck with the number counted on day one

These winners are:

@NarJar (1234)
@c.ortiz108 (1242)
@mooster (1238)
@Cool Breeze (1225)

I need everyone to PM me your addresses, and I'll have all the prizes airborne by Monday!

Thanks for playing; this was my favorite of the three and you recommended some great stuff (and reminded me of some great books I hadn't thought of in a long time)
