All the negative comments seem to focus on the lack of future reference back to the text after the rental is over. Just like renting Robocop for the 20th time from Blockbuster, there is no reason that you can't re-rent the book for the minimum 30 days again in the future. Or, better yet, you rent the most current edition of the subject textbook and reference up-to-date and now-relevant information instead of what was taught 15 years, 20 discoveries, and 150 theories ago...

The only thing that has more salt than salt is soy sauce, after all.

Since your into reading the relationship books, the only ones I've found in my 14 years with my wife is "The 5 Love Languages" and it's sister book "The 5 Languages of Apology" by Gary Chapman. Most books read like compilations of Cosmo articles. If you want to hear the superficial, keep reading those. The 2 books I mentioned discuss the essential levels of love and apology. Each personality processes meanings differently. It's real easy for 2 people who speak identical love languages to get along. For those who have different love languages, it is essential to understand how each other interpret love and you will have to work at showing it in a meaningful way for her, and her to you. For instance, my love language is service. When she does something for me, even something small, I'm happy. In return, I am inclined to show love through service. Unfortunately, her language is words of affirmation. It annoys her when I spend a lot of time doing things for her. She flies high when I simply take the time and tell her meaningful compliments and expressions of thanks. As simple as it sounds, in the ranking of things, words of affirmation rank the lowest of the 5 for me so it is really a difficult task for me to do. Now that you see the flow of this, the languages of apology are the same. All I require is an expression of apology. Acknowledge you done me wrong and express that your sorry and I'm good to go. My wife is a restitution personality. If I am going to drink her tea while she is in the bathroom, I better be ready to make her a new cup. These books are written by a Christian author, but there is little theology. Even atheists look to glean wisdom from religious philosophy. Believe what you like, but don't discount these 2 books. Understand them and your on solid ground with your marriage. Check the website and take the quiz to determine which is your language at http://www.fivelovelanguages.com/

...and here is the story. Take what you will from it. At the time MMORPGs were called MUSHs and MOOs. A friend in college started logging into one and we all joined in the fun. That's what it was, a bit of fun. Unfortunately, while we did it with some pizza for an hour or two every few nights, he started playing more and more. Eventually, he never left the computer lab. He wouldn't go to the cafeteria for meals, instead eating only junk out of the vending machine just outside the lab. His roommate would go days without seeing him as he would simply snooze for an hour or so in the corner of the lab. He would even avoid showers until he stunk so bad he was dragged from the computer lab. We tried everything. We tried to get him to go to class; he wouldn't. We tried to get him to get out and see a movie; he wouldn't. We even tried to get him to come to dinner with his girlfriend who he didn't even talk to anymore; he wouldn't. After about 4 weeks of this, we finally went to the dean of students and explained the situation. His network access was disconnected and the student psychologist and the dean paid him a visit. They gracefully removed him from his currently enrolled classes so his GPA wouldn't take a nose dive should he pull himself back together again, contacted his family, located a local therapist for him, and sent him home. We all basically lost contact with him until he wrote his former girlfriend a year later and thanked us for doing what we did. He did eventually pull himself together and returned to school at another university. I don't know what ever happened to him after that. Anyway, that's my story.

Talk to your sales or marketing department and let them know what your doing. They may be able to give you some talking points; but, what you really want out of them is goodies. Squishi balls, pencils, toy planes (since you work for an aerospace company), etc with the company logo that you can give to the kids. They'll love you no matter what your speech is about and you're kid will be the hero of the day.
