Vancouver Public Library booksale today. I stopped going to these free-for-alls years ago, but there's still good stuff to be had if you don't mind going toe-to-toe with pushy grannies, stroller moms, broke voracious students, and every self-proclaimed "antiquarian book dealer" in town.

Last sale's prize: a nice clean first edition of Naked Lunch. We didn't see it, but every scout through the door claimed to have been standing right behind the lucky guy who did.
