Snay: My copy of A Wrinkle in Time is held together with medical tape and the cover's nearly unreadable. Rock on
Also, my first thought about your display was "My God that's nerdy," but I remembered a friend of mine who had a massive curio cabinet which displayed tons of Star Wars artifacts from toys to actual props from the movie, not to mention her MasterReplica lightsabers and Darth Vader lamp and so on...and I thought all that was pretty cool.

Years ago, I read a piece about a guy who was meeting his favorite author of all time, and he took his well loved and well read copy of the book to be signed. When he handed the book over to the author, explaining that it was his favorite book, he apologized for its condition: the cover was ripped, the spine was cracked. The author chuckled and told him that he considered the condition of the book the greatest compliment he could recieve: clearly, his writing had meant a great deal to this individual, and he could think of no higher praise.
I can't remember the name of the guy who wrote the piece, or the author's name, but I agree 100% with that sentiment.

The den looks MUCH nicer & organized now. And the living room is so...homey. Not nearly as sparse.

Pray silence for my annual announcement: Jeff, you need a girlfriend. That is all, as you were.
Ugh, Playmates. As a purist I disapprove of the inaccuracies in their phasers. I even had a resin TMP phaser based on the Playmates one for a while (but in the "Yesterday's Enterprise" colour scheme) but got rid of it in the end because it annoyed me.
I'm saving my pennies for one of these puppies. Although I'll be buggered if I pay that much, I know a couple of MR dealers.

I always wanted more of the hand props. Tricorders, phasers, etc... All I have is a Klingon disruptor that lights up and makes sound.
