I used to be a prolific reader, back in the day I had 6 library cards (those little cardboard pocket things that the librarian took off you at the desk when she stamped your books out...jeez I'm old). I once tried to read the Bible, got as far as Numbers, too many 'begats' to keep up with.
I honestly cant remember the last time I used the library, what happened to my cards or bought a book.
