HOW TO USE BIBLIOPOLE IN A SENTENCE
If I had the poetic vein, I would indite a pendant to Byron's iambics to that enlightened bibliopole.

Thus, after a search of many weeks, the Western bibliopole succeeded in obtaining a well-thumbed specimen of the precious work.

Am hoping K & H won't mind, but I didn't see a weekend challenge so thought I would jump in. This week: getting down to household brass tacks. Yeah, it's all wonderful for your fictional darlings to be out there saving the world on the daily, solving crimes, or wreaking villainous havoc - but sooner or later they're going to have to whip the homestead into shape.

Let me know you're in, and I'll give you a domestic chore or crisis or whew-not-a-crisis-after-all that either myself or people around me have been tackling lately. Let's see if they inspire some words!

PS - I might take a bit to reply - I've got to work on the basement before the heating systems guy gets here ....
