Loompanics closing

The great alternative bookseller/publisher of all things weird, Loompanics, is closing its doors after 28 years. I was on Loompanics mailing list for several years after a friend sent me a few books -- including "How to Disappear Completely and Never be Found" (described below) -- as a gift, and I can remember another friend skimming through the catalog and then asking, "This is legal?" after reading...

Heavy-duty disappearing techniques for those with a "need to know!" This book tells you how to pull off a disappearance, and how to stay free and never be found. It analyzes all the ways you could be found by whoever might be looking for you -- missing persons bureaus, the feds, private eyes and skip tracers, insurance companies -- and tells you how to evade their pursuit.

Everything you need to know about How to Disappear Completely and Never Be Found is in this amazing book!

... and of course, then there were the drugs, sex, and "reality creation" sections. Maybe not always legal, but certainly needful. Loompanics is having a 50% off sale of everything in the store. As the cartoon excerpt above notes, take a chance and see where reading something new could lead you.
