   I did find it on Z-Lib, but hadn't in every library in BC. . . (probably in   
   Canada, even, as the librarians usually show me the ones out of  province &   
   offer for me to pay their fee to get it for only 1-2 weeks Bleagh)

   I prefer book order, as there might be references to past books that I'd like    
   to read as they're intended: renminiscences.   
      
   Iguess if a customer wanted publication order, you'd just Google up that list    
   for them, eh?  Of course shelf order would be alphabetical by title with    
   author(also alphabetical); book shelvbing requires an abcedarian mind!

   Yeah, plural? I've only sen the one, yup, with Cruise -- why is he made out   
   to  be the all-in-one actor -- that's not as bad as recasting Bruce Willis as   
   an  action hero -- I'm still stuck on him in Mnonlighting

   "Get Out" private screening was, too -- no dirty floors, no yelling or   
   throwing of popcorn. It, of course, hrelped the movie was good -- realy   
   capturing the  feelings of suspense it neede. & the big reveal near the end.   
   ..  WHOOOAAA!!   
      
   I'd've missed so much with screaming 'kids' in the theatre! Kids defined as   
   those acting like such.
