"The Rule and life of the Friars Minor is this, namely to observe the holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ by living in obedience, without property and in chastity." (From the Franciscan Friars Minor Rule of Life, dated 1223) - St Francis of Assisi, Omnibus of Sources

I'm sitting next to 2 books, one stacked on the other, and the Omnibus is the biggest and sticks out just a bit more than the Audubon Society Field Guide to Insects and Spiders! (and besides, the first 100 pages of the Field Guide are just pictures; page 56 features: Bed Bug, Human Flea and Oriental Rat Flea - ICK!

)

"He now grew more composed in his demeanor; but his original air of enthusiam had quite disappeared." From Poe Complete Works by Edgar Allan Poe, of course. This particular story is The Gold Bug. And just for added fun, this is a 1927 copy belonging to my 12 year old son.

He is a Poe freak!
