Also, last night a woman came up to me and asked me why Bill O'Reilly's new book wasn't front and center of the store. I told her that it was for a week but then Harlan Coben came to the store so we put his book out front, then Bruce Springsteen released his book, and so now ol'Bill is relinquished to the shelves. She accused us of being a democratic biased bookstore and that Bill's books should always be front and center. I then told her she should contact the publisher who pays for display locations and that they obviously didn't pay for more than a week. Then she said that we are just afraid to sell copies of it because we're afraid it will get into the hands of democrats and change their views to republican. Yes, she's insane. The whole thing ended with my 87 year old co-worker who spent his first 60 years living in the Bronx saying "Lady, if the book sells, I'll sell the crap out of it. I don't care what the book is. The O'Reilly book is't selling. That's that." It was glorious.
Politics are fun.
