Nice reviews of the new book. Jrand, you said your review was up, "for what it's worth." Good grief, I thought I was reading the New Yorker.

How can people read a book that quickly. I am still enjoying the signature on the title page.

LOL......once the local public library allowed you to take out 8 books at a time, I learned to read VERY quickly....and have done so since age 10!

Very nice review, Jrand. I will only say about the danger aspect that it's almost the same as the first book, although in this one she does have one incident in the park that's a little scary - at least it was to me when I was writing it.

You didn't put a SPOILER before saying Colonel Mustard didn't do it

Jrand74 · « **Reply #125 on:** August 17, 2008, 12:29:29 PM »

LOL.....

Yes the park incident is tingling.

Most of Adriana's exploits in the new book took place in daylight.....I like her out exploring at NIGHT....LOL

Hard to say why you want a character you like to be in peril....but it makes you wonder how she will get out of the situation.

Hope you sell LOTS of books! Will there be a reading for this one?

Yes, will be doing the signing reading in late September or early October. She's fifteen - can't have her out too late at night

- although I did have fun writing the sequence at the club on Las Palmas.

Good Afternoon!

I'm back from wandering around Richmond's historic Church Hill District. And while I was wandering around, I managed to pay a visit to my friend, Mike, whom I haven't seen in about a year. It was good to catch up with him, although, a little said to find out that he had to put down his cat - who he had for 15 years! - a few months ago. It was a bit strange sitting on his back porch without Pussy - yes, that's what he named her - rubbing up against my leg and gently asking for attention every few minutes.

Well, it's a beautiful day in the neighborhood and I've been out taking advantage of it. The weather has been gorgeous. It may change tomorrow and later in the week with rain but it's too nice to stay indoors today.

bk · « **Reply #131 on:** August 17, 2008, 12:57:58 PM »

It's actually quite a nice day here, too.

And I did indeed attend the re-enactment of the Second Virginia Convention of March 1775 at Historic St. John's Church.

What could have easily come off as something hokey and overtly dramatic, turned out to be quite passionate, and at times very moving. "We" sat in the pew of the church as Members of the Convention, and some of the actors were also seated in the pews. The Convention was called to order, voices were raised, delegates were recognized, and we were all encouraged to respond "Aye!" or "Nay!" to the resolutions put forth.

They start the program off with an organ recital, which includes a sing-along of the various Armed Forces Hymns in honor of veterans past and present. As each theme was played, members - active duty and retired - of the Coast Guard, Army, Marine Corps, Air Force and Navy were asked to stand up to be recognized and honored.

And right before we all started to sing "God Bless America", there was a moment of silence in honor of the most recent members of the US Armed Forces who had given their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan. They were both 22. Needless to say, there were more than a few people trying to sing through the ensuing tears, myself included.

DR elmore - I highly suggest putting some sort of "ADULT MATERIAL WARNING" on the link. Yes, I could have guessed it was an Adult site by the title of the site, but I didn't realize it was that adult.

*Or I guess that this post could be the warning if you haven't clicked on the link yet.

It has stayed mostly overcast today, so even though I closed up the house at noon and cut the A/C back on to automatic, it hasn't clicked on yet. I don't think we'll get to the 86 they said we'd get to today.

Ouch is right! I've only been biten by a bee once and hope to keep it that way. As for the skeeters, I don't recall seeing this many before.

Anti-sting vibes to Amy.

When I was eight or nine, my family live in Gales Ferry, Connecticut. I still remember how one of the boy's down the street - I think his name was Andy - and I would sometimes catch bees - usually with the aid of an un-rinsed tuna fish can - and then proceed to pull out their stingers with our fingers. Yes, we did get stung a few times, but, now that I think back on that.... WOW! What the frell were we thinking?!?!?!?

While I cooked and ate lunch, I put in the Blu-ray of A FEW GOOD MEN. I hadn't watched it in awhile, and it's so nice to see it looking so beautifully sharp and with uncompressed 5.1 sound (not that A FEW GOOD MEN has much going on in the surrounds).

I got through the first hour before I switched it off.

Thanks, DR Jose! I just did that. I looked at his site because he so proudly posts it under his castrecl signature, but I did not delve into the site, because, frankly, after his email, I have no wish to know more.

Landon and I have conflicting notions on the meaning of "adult." I'd say he isn't one.

Then it was back to the last two parts of FDR (about 2 hours and 15 minutes' worth).These pretty much dealt with the last two terms. Inevitably moving to see him going downhill but pushing himself to make it to the end of the war.

Matt H. · « **Reply #145 on:** August 17, 2008, 01:18:25 PM »

There were no special features on the FDR discs, so I plunged right into to TRUMAN, and I got about 25 minutes watched of the first disc. The first part of this TRUMAN documentary looks to be two hours or a bit more, so I'll likely finish disc 1 tonight, and if disc 2 isn't too long, I'll go on to it. I'll stop around 10 or thereabouts and watch LAW & ORDER:CI after it is broadcast so I can zip through commercials.

Other movies I'm waiting for on DVD (I of course forget to check on them) are "Lili" and "Travels With My Aunt".
