I love Dork Tower. I read it all the time. They just finished a
series about having too many books...
It starts here:
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.gamespy.com/comics/dorktower/archive.asp?nextform=viewcomic&id=784" target="_blank">http://www.gamespy.com/comics/dorktower/archive.asp?nextform=viewcomic&id=784</a>
You can click on "Next" a few times to read the rest of them (there
are two unrelated comics in the middle of the series, but more of the
book ones after them).

Too many books? How can you have too many books?
Just because there's no place to sit - except on piles of books -
doesn't mean you have too many books. <g>

Well, I don't *personally* believe in the concept of "too many books"
(as even a glance into my library will show). It was more a running
commentary on the complete inability to go into a bookstore without
leaving with at least a dozen books - even when the bookstore was
entered for the sole purpose of acquiring exactly one specific book.
I can truly empathise with that problem.
Uncle Hugo's loves me (sci-fi/fantasy new/used bookstore in South
Minneapolis). My finances don't love Uncle Hugo's.

Books make excellent chairs, if stacked right.

Commuting from Buffalo to Minneapolis to buy books will definitely be
bad for your finances. <g>
