I shouldn't allow myself to browse the ALA store. It is a dangerous place.

I really want to buy half the READ posters there...and that's a tiny percentage of the ones they've put out (we used to have like 20-30 of them up in the old library building and none of those are in the store currently).

I already have the Orlando Bloom one (he's reading LotR, natch), but I so want Alan Rickman (Catcher in the Rye, nice pick), Ewan McGregor (reading Beatrix Potter!), Stephen Hawking (can't tell what he's reading, the image is too small), America Ferrara (can't see her book either), Jeffrey Dean Morgan (the Watchmen, of course, and the READ is made to look like the book cover a bit), Rachel Ray (reading the Stinky Cheese, that looks interesting!), Danica Patrick (can't see her book either), and YODA!!!!!!!!

But I don't have room for more than one poster on my wall right now and the Doctor is up there. With Astrid :)

I wonder whose ear I can tug at ALA and get them to do a John Barrowman READ poster. Now *that* would bump the Doctor off the wall. Sorry Doctor but the Captain is hotter! ;)

READ POSTERS!!!!

There are far too many I want, including Ewan McGregor, Alan Rickman, Hugh Laurie (Treasure Island), and Jeff Corwin (My Side of the Mountain . . . Yo-Yo Ma's is adorable—he has Goodnight Moon! It's too bad they don't have an X-Files one, but I suppose it's not as "current" anymore (OOH! Gillian Anderson with Bleak House!)—although a Doctor Who/Torchwood one, with any of the actors, really, would be brilliant. ^_^

And there needs to be a Colin Firth one with P&P. Even though Keira Knightly already has that book. Because he needs to have P&P. And Liam Neesom has to have a Narnia book.

And I'm sure I can't be the only one who loves to see which book everyone has. ^_^

I also really, really want this (also available in hot chocolate—with marshmallows!—and coffee). ^_^

I love to see which book everyone has, I used to spend way too much time staring at all the READ posters at my library. :)

I want the hot chocolate one so much!! And since I'm more of a Dewey fan than LC (sorry but LC call numbers look too much like algebraic equations to me), that's so up my alley. :D Of course I have a mug that style (with the spoon in the handle) from when my library opened the new building, with the new logo on it. But it doesn't have the Dewey number for hot chocolate!

My home library doesn't have any READ posters. :( They do, however have some of the other ones, like the Library Lion on.

Oh, Dewey definitely pwns LC (I should icon that . . . )—I hadn't even *seen* LC classification before library school and I still don"t like it very much. I suppose it's a good thing I'm going into public librarianship, eh?

And it takes far too long to type one-handed. On the other hand (pun not really intended), ice-cream cones are delicious. ^_^

I've got such a pile of icons to make, I just found a couple of pictures of John with his laptop to make a Mac!Love icon (and I was gonna make a couple, one for me one for you :D ). I should add "READ" to my Jack reading icon, that would make it even cooler! I need to find more pictures of Torchwood people reading!!

And :-P stop making me hungry! Now I want an ice cream cone! :-P
