Will someone please spike Gramps' Metamucil with some bourbon and put him to bed?

For once in my life, I actually kind of understand Rooney's point.

Thought experiment:

Take your Kindle, your Barnes and Ignoble Nook or your Sony Reader and drop it on its corner from about 4 feet up. Now try to read it. Hmmm.

Interesting results. It's broken. It turns on, but the screen is likely to be cracked, rendering its contents unreadable.

Now take a book, a real book that comes with pages, either hard bound, paperback or freaking scroll and drop it on its corner from 4 feet up. Try reading THAT.

The results are astounding!

The technology in the book withstood the fall and will stand up to all sorts of abuse before being rendered unreadable. Plus. books are nice to hold, thumb through and smell.

E-books, bleh.

Screw e-books. As of yet Amazon can not walk into your house and steal back the real books they sold you or tell a library they can only loan them out 27 times before they have to be destoyed or repurchased.

Please wait...
