A book is a version of the world. If you do not like it, ignore it; or offer your own version in return.

You talk to God, you're religious. God talks to you, you're psychotic.

Who needs a meaning anyway, I'd settle anyday for a very fine view.

This is the wrong forum for bluffing

Yes, yes. But first I need to show you this venomous fish!

I think we should do whatever Pawiz wants.

Re: Lenin Badge
It's a very nice badge. On a purely aesthetic level I've always liked the look of Soviet Union posters, badges and the like.
Have you tried asking around at communist/Soviet Union websites? Maybe some have collectors who might be able to give you an idea of what it's worth. I suppose you could also try websites which specialise in memorabilia, some of them may have forums. If all else fails maybe you could go and look around town (or go to the nearest city) for a shop which specialises in collectors items? Perhaps ask an auctioneer?
