I was sad when I was at a McD's having a greezy meal and they had used
books for decoration. I guess they glued them all shut and screwed them
in place like books on shelves all over the place. I saw a couple
titles I've read, and some I'd like to read.
The binding from hardcovers would be an interesting wallpaper. Alligned
in various ways looking like a bookcase, with the paper inside the wall.
The truth window is an intriging idea, I like it.
