UT Press Book Sale

I just wanted to draw everyone's attention to the UT Press Book Sale. If you're like me, you just delete most of those official-looking event announcements from UT, but, the book sale is freaking awesome.

The film books are usually a pretty good assortment, and some of the cooking, birdwatching, art and photography things are good to have on hand for gifts. I'm sure the gardening and whatnot are fine, but that's not really something I'm hip to.

notices of this sale should also come with a warning... it set me back substantially in both cash and space last year.

be careful around the birdwatching books... some of those ladies in fishing hats and faded bluebird t-shirts are aggressive and downright vicious.
