Sounds like maybe the proofers should take another look. And have a couple more people read it, too. The more proofers the better.
After reading today's notes I would agree with DR Laura. Read it out loud. Get a few more people to proof it. As someone who reads a lot I think it is important to try to get rid of as many mistakes/typos/errors as you can Good luck.

I am always amazed how many books (ebooks and hardbound) have problems keeping the names of the characters correct. I saw one character who changed names three times in one paragraph.

Sounds like a fun visit DR GINNY!!

It has been, DR JRand. Despite the almost 10-year difference in our ages, we get along quite well.

If she is ten years younger than you; why isn't she in school?

They just reported 135,000 out of power already. Wonder if Vixmom still has power.. Hope so

Great avatar, George.

Congrats on selling out of Laura, BK.

Stay warm and inside and safe, all you nor'easter folks.

Still feeling not so hot. Maybe I'm just tired - I couldn't get to sleep last night. I ordered a pizza and some chicken wings. That will give me left overs for tomorrow. Yeah, I know not that health, but whatever

whata cowinkydink

WE had pizza and wings for dinner

no leftovers but then there were three of us eating

I gave the man who braved the blizzard a $5 tip

I think I'm finally catching the cold that EVERYONE around me seems to have. Hopefully it's just a cold and not the flu and hopefully I'll still feel well enough to play the concert on Sunday. I've been working so hard on it

Oh dear - NO FLU VIBES NO COLD VIBES for Cilla

Vixdad received The Prisoner on DVD as a Christmas gift - we showed the first episode to the Vixter this evening - she was underwhelmed

vixmom · « **Reply #228 on:** February 08, 2013, 07:15:30 PM »

Nonetheless we have decreed it as required viewing over the next several week as apart of her cultural education

After the Prisoner episode we turned on PBS - they are showing Shakespeare Uncovered- the first episode was David Tennant exploring Hamlet and now it is Trevor Nunn exploring The Tempest

The show parts of various performances in these shows by various actors.

I never realized that Helen Mirren had played Prospero. It looks an interesting version - I must seek it out

Thanks! After it took me 90 minutes to travel the 7 miles home and I was unable to reach Vixdad by phone I was so concerned that he would be stranded on a train somewhere. In 2009 the train was stranded between stations right here in town for about 8 hours with no electricity, heat or toilet facilities --- I was so relieved when he walked in the door

After 3 busy days, I'm ready for a "down" day tomorrow. But, it looks like I'm finally recovering! It's been a long 4 weeks since I woke up with a sore throat in Norwich.

'Night!
