| Selling 3,000 to 5,000 books on your own really makes the big publishers stand up and take notice. A lot of small self-publishers get picked up that way. |
| We haven't run out of ambition or growth. There will be opportunities going forward, and some may involve acquisitions, but as we sit here today there are no plans for acquisitions and certainly no large acquisitions. |
| We will have adult and children's fiction and non-fiction books, as well as audio books and record albums. Most items will be priced at $1 or less. Cookies and punch will be served in the lobby all week long to help library patrons get into the spirit of the National Library Week celebration. |
| Exactly why the assailants resorted to deadly force is not clear, nor why a drastic shift in 2005 versus 2004. Although one can presume, from past history and experience, that many of these victims and perpetrators were engaged in illegal activity at the time of the event, both in 2004 and 2005. |
| [Has it been a success though, I ask.] I don't know, ... I don't have another first novel that wasn't pushed electronically to compare it to. But the book itself is doing very well. Looking at other publishers, a good example is Baen Books , who do a lot of multi volume series of books. From experience, they know how much volume 13 should sell based on the sales of boook 12. So when volume 13 comes out, they bundled a CD-Rom with eBook versions of the first 12 books. They also hosted these eBooks online for free. When this happens, the sales of volume 13 were beyond expectation, and volumes 1 through 12 see a bump in sales as well. |
| Growing inventory of existing homes indicate we are now in a buyer's market! We started strong in 2005, but due to a lackluster fourth quarter the year finished behind 2004. Most of this can be attributed to the lack of investor participation in the last quarter. Sales for 2005 were about 5 percent below that of 2004. |

| [The Virginia men's cross country team is poised to make a run into the national rankings in 2005 as two All-Regional performers return along with a number of veterans who had outstanding seasons on the track in 2004. Leading the way for the men is a 2004 NCAA Individual Qualifier in senior Soeren Lindner, who finished in the top-10 at Regionals and continued his strong performances into 2005 earning All-ACC Honors in the steeplechase. Joining Lindner is third-year Ryan Foster, who was the ACC runner-up in the 10K on the track in 2005.] I expect Soeren and Ryan to be front-runners for us in 2005, ... Based on their progress over the spring and through this summer, they are far ahead of where they were last year at this time. |
| Pex Tufvesson is called Mahoney in the demo world. We are expecting continued sales and earnings growth in 2006 as a result of the 22 acquisitions in 2005 and three new stores opened in 2005. |
