http://booksforcalvin.blogspot.com/2008/08/kaboom-books.html

I've been dying to visit ever since I spied bookshelf upon bookshelf in a charming storefront we pass every Sunday while driving home.

The principles of uncertainty :. Um, I've used that photo twice on my other blog. But I don't feel like snapping another pic today - how do you like that?
