    Why not put the book across the two lower metal post-thingies. Then it makes a shelf. Then you can get rid of ugly rubberband and the two upper post-thingies.

    This looks like a great concept to store my spiked balls, broken glass, and incredibly sharp playing cards collection!

    In keeping with my philosophy of recycle and re-use, I already do this in my bedroom with giant nails and used condoms. Really helps set the right mood, too.

    The largest structure available includes a secret passage in the bottom to take you to the tomb of unfinished periodicals -- mummified in late editions of the Seattle P.I., and certain to be raided for the riches in a couple hundred years.


    I could actually see the new library in downtown Seattle using a design like this. While not ideal in utilitarian usefulness, it is artsy enough to have at least one wall with it - and clearly says "we can display our books in a way that there is no way in hell you will ever get to the good ones at the top of the pyramid".

    I'd cover the thing in plexiglass and cut small holes in the dividers to make the most epicest rat maze ever.


    That'd be fun to watch.

    @Rabid Penguin: Ahh... you guys are the same people that every time they ask where I am (while working the phones here at my lovely call center), I say Texas, then they ask if I've lived there long, I respond with the fact that I was born and raised here, then they come back with the ol', "But you don't SOUND like you're from there!" *sigh*


    Because we all sound like the backwoods yokels who hang out in the hollers near Louisiana... and we all have ranches with tons of horses and cows and oil rigs all over the place. And the entire state is a desert that is, in fact, strikingly similar to the desert just about 50 miles east of Los Angeles, as crazy as that is. Did I mention we all walk around all day in huge cowboy hats and gaudy boots? Totally.
