Long ago yes i did have many book ends and at one time they were horse headed types. It seems today things are a little different and to be honest i do not see these book ends as much as in the old days Thanks for sharing Good Luck

Do you know what happened to your horse headed bookends, vmks31? They don't seem to be as popular these days.

No horse headed book ends, but I do have one dragon headed! My book ends doesn't hold much significance to me at all, I don't need them all that much to be honest.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14932)   ranked 1 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

Dragon headed bookends are neat, Sushicook. Do you use them for books or something else? Perhaps a door stop?


myLot reputation of 94/100. Sushicook (653)   ranked 144 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

I use them for books, mainly, but I'm thinking of using them to make my videogames not fall over instead.

I used to have some Harry Potter ones for my son's room but I don't know what happened to them lol.Since I divorced with my Hubby lots of his old things went..But I do love book ends and I would love to get some new ones with a meaning, especially an Historic meaning of some kind. I think bookends look really attractive on a book case don't you?


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14932)   ranked 1 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

Yes, yanjiaren, actually I do like bookends. I don't know why, but I do.

No I dont have any at all...I have been head butted by a horse though...That was quite exciting and is something that I will always remember.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14932)   ranked 1 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

Was this at a different time from when you busted your nose on a horses head, Calais?

Beware the head and the butt together.

I have some wooden bookends that look looke half a horse apple, does that count?


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14932)   ranked 1 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

Of course it counts, herrbaggs.

Surely you know that I wait with great expectations for all of your answers!!


myLot reputation of 44/100. WhatsHerName (1740)   ranked 6,090 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

What the heck is a half horse apple?


myLot reputation of 76/100. herrbaggs (732)   ranked 868 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

A half a horse apple is just the opposit of a whole horse apple. A horse apple in some cultures is reffered to as meadow muffin. In polite society it is a description of a one side conversation with a native new yorker at a finger pulling event. A lot of horse crapp.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14932)   ranked 1 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

That was one of my two guesses, but I still played it safe, WhatsHerName.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14932)   ranked 1 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

How do I stay sane? Who says I am sane?

Plus, you forget that I had years of practice with my former profession, herrbaggs.


myLot reputation of 44/100. WhatsHerName (1740)   ranked 6,090 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

Thanks for half clearing that up.

Oddly enough I don't have any bookends. I don't know why, considering the amount of books I have. I may have to get some pretty soon, because my book shelf is rather full and I may need to put some books on the top of it.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14932)   ranked 1 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

Book ends are very useful for placing books on the top shelf, dfn12968.


myLot reputation of 76/100. herrbaggs (732)   ranked 868 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

Transdisc, how do you answer alot of these comments and remain sane? Your medicine cabinet must be loaded with good presciptions.


myLot reputation of 95/100. dfn12968 (5580)   ranked 50 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

hey now, is that a cut on my comment?? i've seen worse...lol.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14932)   ranked 1 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

Don't mind herrbaggs. He's always this way. I would consider it an honor.


myLot reputation of 76/100. herrbaggs (732)   ranked 868 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

My creed is, I will not speak unless I have something really stupid to say.


myLot reputation of 95/100. dfn12968 (5580)   ranked 50 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

I will consider myself in good company then.

My grandfather had a pair of really beautiful brass horse head bookends, but alas, they went to my Aunt instead of my dad after my grandmother passed, thus one of my cousins now have them.

Bookend envy is a terrible thing.

However, I ended up with the Buffalo Bill bronze.

Note: The above is, I realize, an example of crass materialism. Sorry.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14932)   ranked 1 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

Crass materialism is what makes the USA so great, diecaster.

The Buffalo Bill bronze bookends sound great!

Do you remember a silly movie from the early 1980's, called, Student Bodies? The shop teacher loved teaching students how to make horse headed bookends, and then he ended up being the serial killer killing all the students. He used horse headed bookends to kill them, and he left a horse headed bookend at every murder site.

Just so you know, that's my inspiration for this Discussion.:)

You have no idea how much you have impressed me that you remember this movie, diecaster. Your esteem has risen much in my mind this day.

The other thing I remember about the movie is that the blind guy's guide dog once drove the guy's car to school. It was a small part of the movie, but I've never forgotten it.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14932)   ranked 1 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

I just remembered another line from the movie. It's crass in itself, and I don't know why it just popped in my mind, but it did. The guy who speaks these words is talking about the shop instructor, "He probably sleeps with his nuts between some horse headed book ends."

Honestly hun I don't use book ends because I'm not a big reader and therefore don't own a whole lot of books. I did see a pair that I wanted though, but I bought them for a dear friend of mine as they were on sale, and believe me she likes to reaad lol. They were a pair of matching gargoyles, I almost wanted to start a book collection just so I could use them LoL, but in the end realized they were a better gift for her.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14932)   ranked 1 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

AHHHH! You have matchiing gargoyle bookends, PurpleTeddyBear!! I have to get some. My driveway markers are Gargoyles.


myLot reputation of 99/100. PurpleTeddyBear (3204)   ranked 955 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

Actually Transdisc I ended up giving the gargoyle bookends to my friend as she has a book collection and I don't! That would be great to have gargoyles at the end of your driveway! Lucky $h!t LoL.

 
9. myLot reputation of 85/100. dopey22girl (3169)   ranked 98 out of 7,668 in reading   1 year ago

No...I don't even have any bookends. Lol I have a bookshelf and each of the shelves is completely stocked from front to finish, so the book ends I guess are the sides of the bookshelves. I saw some really cute A and Z ones today. I thought those were cool but they were very expensive.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14932)   ranked 1 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

A to Z bookends sound cool, dopey22girl. I like your bookshelf bookends.;)

I don't have any horse headed bookends, but I have the bookends from the special gift edition of the extended version of Lord of the Rings DVD---So that means I have the miniature Argonath statues from Fellowship of the Ring, and I have the special bookends from the special gift set of Chronicles of Narnia...that of the wardrobe and the lamp--as for significance....well--I loved the movies!!


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14932)   ranked 1 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

I bet the wardrobe and the lamp bookends are cute, pyewacket. I'm not as familiar with the LOR symbols, but I imagine that cute wouldn't adequately describe them, unless it is Gimley (is that you it's spelled?)


myLot reputation of 98/100. pyewacket (8553)   ranked 816 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

Are you thinking of Gimli the dwarf or Gollum the one who walked around saying he wanted his precious? meaning the ring of course


myLot reputation of 96/100. Transdisc (14932)   ranked 1 out of 7,668 in reading  1 year ago

Not Gollum. Gimli, the good guy.
