That was my first reader in school.  You were lucky to find it at that price.

I keep my meds in the dresser in my bedroom.

I guess the soft cover may have given the 'untrained eye'  (lol) a false impression.  It wasn't actually a second hand BOOK store....just a general second hand store.  I checked it out online and it is worth substantially more.  I almost feel like taking it back to them.

  Have you ever seen one of those books with the 'scene' painted on the pages that doesn't become visible unless you 'fan' the pages.  I keep looking...lol

I haven't seen one of those in ages.  I did see one old one on an antiques show, but I cant recall what it was worth.  It was in mint condition, never opened.

This poor fellow has really bad thumbs....but he shows it perfectly.  They are most often found on the gold gilt edged books.  This surely isn't the best example I've seen...but he demonstrates perfectly where it's found.  (I KEEP looking)

  Seriously SD? Never heard that before? Medicine Cabinet.. Tylenol, Prescription Drugs? I know they show it lots in movies and on TV's too when you see people go into bathrooms to get drugs to OD on...

   Good point Russ.....that's the first thing that came to my mind.....you'd have to have not watched TV EVER to have not seen people go into the medicine cabinet.....in their bathroom.  I've never even seen a bathroom that doesn't have one..... as standard a fixture as a toilet.[/DIV]

Uhm, *raises hands*.  Our cabinet has no drugs.  We keep them in the kitchen cabinet. :)

  Yes, I know. I'm the oddball here.

Lil Me

I don't keep drugs in the bathroom, either....but we still call it the "medicine cabinet"- even though it's filled with soaps and toothpaste and whatnot.  (Oh- bandaids and peroxide- does that qualify as medicine?)

Same here.....but the 'medicine cabinet' is generally in the bathroom, regardless of where you keep your meds.

Yes, most of us do refer to is as the medicine cabinet technically but you could call it whatever you want.  

Sportsdude

 i guess so about the medicine in the bathroom in movies. I just never really pay attention to detail I guess. Mine have always been in the kitchen above the sink.
