    That title should get some attention. lol

    It's also the title of what's said to be a fantastic book about Richard Branson, mine finally arrived in the mail today after some huge hassle care of Canada Post.

    The book is out of print, almost impossible to get from Amazon, B&N;, and any bookstore.

    Luckily, a company I've ordered from several times, BookCloseouts.com, had a few copies. So I picked one of his ginormous bios up, along with the smaller "Screw It, Let's Do It". That Branson sure is a nympho.

    Anyways, the folks were so nice in helping me with my shipping troubles, and being that they only sell overstock and discontinued books, the prices are ridiculous.

    There are only 2 or 3 copies of the bio book left at $5.99:

    and 100 of the smaller Screw It book at $3.49:

    The first one will be gone in no time. So if you're in Canada or the US and wan't an inspiring read, jump on this.

    I didn't think there was an issue getting "losing my virginity". I found it on Amazon no problem.

    I haven't had time to ready it yet but can't wait. I should pick up screw it let's do it.

    Screw it, Let's do it, is a really quick read. If you sit down for an hour you can breeze right through it. I've only had the time to read the first 4 or 5 little chapters, but it's been very inspirational so far.

    Does that book closeout place usually ship pretty fast? I went with standard shipping because I'm a cheapskate and it said 1-4 weeks which I couldn't believe - I guess we'll see, eh?

    They're quick. My orders usually arrive with 2 or 3 business days from their Ontario warehouse. Your books will probably come from their New York office sometime next week.

    Check your account info in a day or so for tracking info.

    How do you find the overstock/disco books? (Quality wise)
