TO READ! |
The Onion A satirical newspaper published by Onion, Inc. The Onion¨ uses invented names in all its stories, except in cases when public figures are being satirized. Any other use of real names is accidental and coincidental. The Onion¨ is not intended for readers under 18 years of age. http://www.theonion.com/ BookCrossing The idea is to leave a book you've read (and hopefully loved) so that it can continue its travels. By registering it on this site and leaving a note inside the book, you will be able to trace where it's been. www.bookcrossing.com |
