How moves fate? I came here looking for books of herbs, kick ass Nordic myths and ancient, occult lore. Here I found a living Icelander but Grettir was next door! Clean and Decent though I did not seek yet did I find the loo. And tucked into the store's remote corner was the hardbound title - I did not seek that too. Either sex, single entry with ornate works of art to tender. 281 numbered pages of restroom history, my god, with plates and pictures rendered! Though no professor of truth, no scholar nor restroom expert, nor herbalist am I, here at this store did they dispense respect while the fruit of the loome pity not the fool with a question, from whom their mocking laughter they do not hide. Do not fail to grasp 'twas not nude persons in the bath on the cover that moved my hand to buy the book! Dear reader I ask, could the title "Clean and Decent" not bid me turn the cover and discover what lay beyond the boobies, with a look? Put to rest your character attacks and quarrels for a girlfriend's approval and further, fibrous morals are what I proffer to release me from your judgment and let me off the hook.
