Tales from the Bookstore

Stupid perverted husband

Entered in our "Log of Boredom & Weirdism" by a bookseller on 5-15-05:

A couple of days ago a woman around 75 years old walked in and needed a book for her husband. Asked for books about human body so I pointed her toward health. She then asked if we had "sexual books-the ones with pictures." Climbed up to overstock and handed about 4 books down to her. She said he already had them, and later on added that he was a pervert. She then asked about crossword puzzles-easy ones because "he [was] stupid." She ended up buying 'Easy Crossword Puzzles for Dummies" and the largest print crossword dictionary we had. I feel sorry for her and her stupid perverted husband.
