Have any DR"S read or viewed any of these?

If so, I would like to hear your reviews and opinions!!!

[Kate]

I recently read Night.

What a sad and thought provoking book.

Any opinions on this DR"S?

[Kate]

I am almost done with THOSE WHO SAVE US, by Jenna Blum.

It is one of the best books I have ever read.

I think she is a very gifted writer.

I will read more of her books!!!

An HHW Millstone!!!

I'm up, I'm up - maybe four hours of sleep, but I may go back to bed in a bit.

[bk]

My greatest passion in life at this point is probably writing or just plain old creating something.  It's really always been that way.

[bk]

And the publisher already called and said they're working on the interior to make it right, but as I said, what we sent them WAS right unless something weird happened with the PDF but I cannot imagine that because I printed the book from he PDF and the blacks were BLACK, so I'm pretty sure whatever happened happened on THEIR end.

[bk]

I should see something today or tomorrow, then they have to print that and send it to me and it's all so irritating.  But I'm nor ordering until I know it's up to our standards.

[Ginny]

Wednesday afternoon greetings!  It's another spring-like day here in SW Ohio and Richard and Rob have already been out for walks.  Just taking a shower and getting dressed exhausts me...

[Ginny]

...but I am feeling like getting some things done that I let slide during February, so that's encouraging.

[Jane]

Last night, I was ready for bed at 9 p.m.

And thus, I went to bed.

And it was all I could do to drag myself out of bed at 5:40 a.m.

I'm usually up anywhere between 4:45 a.m. and 5 a.m.

I blame the C-PAP.  I'm sleeping SO WELL!

Great news. When the power when out last night, so did my machine. I did not sleep well as a result. I really need that machine.

You need a manual version...and a gerbil on a wheel to keep it going when the power goes out!

[Jane]

DR Ron I know people who have posted something on FB and then stated they were not looking for particular responses and why they shared whatever.  You could have used a heads up from the person you just unfriended. 

[Jrand73]

Facebook is the Vast Wasteland that television used to be.  It's also a bit like the Wild Wild West.

I have probably only "unfriended" two or three people in all these many years....there are a few more that I could for this reason or that....

I comment a bit less on some things - it's NOT that important to me to express my opinion on what other people say.  What I think about something is usually not changed by a Facebook post, and I sincerely doubt that anything I may write on Facebook would change someone else's mind about anything.

[Jane]

I recently read Night.

What a sad and thought provoking book.

Who is the author?  Is this book 1 in a trilogy?

CAKE
MY LEFT FOOT

Nice gift DR Kevin.

I don't know about CAKE or that I would watch it.  I would need to know more.

I have not seen THE BOY IN THE....... It looks very interesting.

I recall thinking MY LEFT FOOT was terrific.
I thought SNIPER & JUDGE were good.

[elmore3003]

My favorite review of Seth Ridetsky's new musical DISASTER: It's possible to imagine a mood that may only be satisfied by a couple of hours of watching really good performers having a lark with really bad material

Haven't seen them yet. Thumbs up or down?

They're mixed.

I suspect, like XANADU, the camp element will keep it running for a bit.  I'd see it for Kerry Butler and Adam Pascal. Personally, I am not fond of Seth Rudetsky, but I loved his book BROADWAY NIGHTS.

[elmore3003]

I need to walk to Staples and see if they have a desk lamp in stock. I just destroyed mine while look for something on my crowded work table.

[Jane]

I am almost done with THOSE WHO SAVE US, by Jenna Blum.

It is one of the best books I have ever read.

I think she is a very gifted writer.

I will read more of her books!!!

I thought it was very good.  I gave it a solid 4 out of 5 stars.

[Jane]

An HHW Millstone!!!

It was a good post too.

[Jane]

DR elmore did you find a lamp you like?

[elmore3003]

I am back from Staples, and the lamp is not in stock.  It would take 7-10 days for delivery.  So, once i got home, I thought i'd check Amazon.  They had it, but they also had a great photo of the lamp base. Once I realized that I had lost a part of the base when the lamp collapsed, I went back tyo my work area. found the missing piece, repaired it and I'm back in business.

[elmore3003]

I've also packed two cartons for the library, and after I left Staples, I realized I should have purchased wrapping tape. There's always tomorrow.

I'd like to ship everything out next week.

[ChasSmith]

DR Elmore's work area has remarkable resilience.

[bk]

The book stuff is driving me crazy - they supposedly fixed the black to 100% (neither Grant nor I believe them about the text itself being 82% black as he did nothing different on this book from any other and the text has always been 100% black.  But in fixing that all the chapter headings, the chapter titles, and the headers all turned 100% black and that's not the book design - those things are all in two different shades of gray - one dark gray and the other light gray.  So now they have to put that stuff back the way it was.

[ChasSmith]

This is insane.  What is so difficult about following the parameters you've established for the last umpteen books?

[bk]

Exactly.  I've never had this problem.  But they looked at Red Gold, for example, and the type there is 100% black and they're saying this isn't and we just don't get it.

[bk]

Speaking of % - we've made a huge jump today on the Indiegogo campaign and are 99% to our goal with less that $200 to go and that's with two full days left - so once we hit the goal, which I know we will, the new goal will be to get a bit more and cover the Indiegogo/Paypal fees.  But hitting the goal means the Indiegogo fees are MUCH less.

[elmore3003]

This is insane.  What is so difficult about following the parameters you've established for the last umpteen books?

So many like to re-invent the wheel since they know they can do it better than it already is.

[bk]

And we have not only reached our goal, we just went over it - we are now 107% funded thanks to a $1,000 producer perk being taken.  So, now we just need to keep going a little further and we'll have covered the Indiegogo fees and then if we go beyond that we can add a second keyboard player to the band and that would be incredible.
