Heed my sandwich board!!

Lovely, rainy day. A friend of mine said once that he was only really happy when it rained. I thought he was kidding, but a rainy day does offer some break from the day to day regularity of wind and sun, does it not? The store is well, more clean and orderly than usual, due to the dilligence of one motivated bookseller, yours truly. I have committed to shelving x number of books every day so as to not have my customers tripping all over themselves to get to their next new book.
As your local caring and responsible bookseller, I must urge you all to heed my sandwich board on the sidewalk. I only encourage this because I care. It says:
'Wear the old coat and buy the new book.'
-Austin Phelps

Buy 'new', of course, I mean new to you, but that goes with out saying.
Furthermore,

"Read, read, read."
-William Faulkner

Bookstore Needs Computer

I need a new computer. That's all there is to it. The connection at the store is fast, but the ten-year- old computer doesn't play the same game. It is disastrously slow. I am trying to sell books on line, but it literally takes forever for websites to come up and I don't just don't have all day to wait. I work my other job five nights a week and have been trying to save up for a Netbook or Notebook, but things keep popping up. So, I figured, I would put it out there, that I am in dire need of a computer that can handle a fast connection speed. Can trade books, housekeeping, pet and housesitting skills for it, but NEED one, badly.
Thanks in advance for any help!
