Why do books even get sold as hardcover? I’ve read thousands of books in my life, and only TWO hardcovers. They’re not great for transporting, and they’re usually way bigger than the paperback.

I bought your book, everybody should, but the paperback is the way to go!

You can still buy the book from amazon.co.uk, and it’ll only cost you 11 UK pounds (or about $22). What a gyp… ;(

It’s not exactly a line but the funniest part of the movie is where they are standing in line and get Marshall McLuhin (sp?) to tell someone else in line that he has no idea what he is talking about.

EXCERPT FROM FILM ANNIE HALL PLAYS]

MAN: It’s the influence of television. Now, now Marshall McLuhan deals with it in terms of it being a, a high– high intensity, you understand? A hot medium–

WOODY ALLEN: What I wouldn’t give for a large sock with horse manure in it.

MAN: — as opposed to the truth which he [sees as the] media or–

WOODY ALLEN: What can you do when you get stuck on a movie line with a guy like this behind you?

MAN: Now, Marshall McLuhan–

WOODY ALLEN: You don’t know anything about Marshall McLuhan’s work–

MAN: Really? Really? I happen to teach a class at Columbia called TV, Media and Culture, so I think that my insights into Mr. McLuhan, well, have a great deal of validity.

WOODY ALLEN: Oh, do you?

MAN: Yeah.

WOODY ALLEN: Oh, that’s funny, because I happen to have Mr. McLuhan right here. Come over here for a second?

MAN: Oh–

WOODY ALLEN: Tell him.

MARSHALL McLUHAN: — I heard, I heard what you were saying. You, you know nothing of my work. How you ever got to teach a course in anything is totally amazing.

WOODY ALLEN: Boy, if life were only like this.

The funniest line in the movie is Woody Allen complimenting Granny Hall’s ham.

“It’s a dynamite ham.”

I said I bought the book but it bounced back as not available from the seller. Not sure what happened. Is anyone able to get this price from Amazon now?

I stupidly bought the book months ago for like 16 bucks. Dang.

I was at a library book sale and overhead a woman haggling with the staff, “I’d buy this book for a quarter, but it’s not worth 50 cents.” They just stared at her.

This comment box fills with giant text.

The problem with the bargain books on amazon.com is that I always end up buying another $20 worth of books to get the free shipping.

On that note, the paperback version of Crazy ‘08 is available for about $10.

ChuckO,

Maybe I’m biased because I live in Kansas City and had met Buck on a couple of occasions, but if nothing else, “Soul of Baseball” is a book written by a GREAT writer and story teller about a GREAT man and story teller.
How can you say that doesn’t at least sound interesting for 6 bucks? Buck wasn’t just an old, black baseball player he was a wonderful man who grew up with hatred directed at him yet showed love and caring for all people and especially the game he loved.

Thanks for letting us know about the sale. Just bought one. Keep up the good work. I’m friends with the sports editor in Roanoke, VA and tried to convince him to hire you away from KC. He didn’t think he could afford you.
