    Great mug! For Christmas my wife got me a metal plaque showing a cat atop a pile of books. The motto says, “It’s not hoarding if it’s books.”
    My own memorable characters list would include Mr. Jonas, the junkman from Ray Bradbury’s “Dandelion Wine,” a minor character perhaps but memorable nonetheless, and Jordan Baker from “The Great Gatsby,” a character I’d hate if I actually knew her but whom I find fascinating as a character. I also like the Ghost of Christmas Past from “A Christmas Carol.” I love the line “I show you the shadows of things that have been. That they are what they are, do not blame me.”

      I'm also partial to the Grim Reaper, whenever he shows up in something.

    You're looking fully recovered, Old Guy! A great character I just encountered was JR Isidore, the "special" (person with substandard IQ) from _Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep._ Really surprised by that novel

      Thanks!. I should remember Isidore, but I don't. That whole "old guy" thing.

    I like Brown Dog in Brown Dog Redux by Jim Harrison
