Trying to make it through the list! Have learned to empty the litter box instead of writing sex scenes while I have the flu. Not bad.
John Philipp Feb 25, 2008, 6:27pm EST
Synergistic learning is the best kind, Pat.
June B. Feb 25, 2008, 7:18pm EST

Hi, Luna. Good to see you.
John Philipp Feb 27, 2008, 8:31am EST
After a while, Christi, what to do with all the books is a problem. When I move I give most of my books to Goodwill or the library and start over again.

Unfortunately, I don't move often enough.

Enjoying the articles, specially Bob.
