Sorry to hear about your mom, xfox - my condolences. That's good advice from her, too.
I guess I read fiction because I can be completely alone in silence, except for the voice of the author and the voices of the characters inside my brain. It's probably the most intimate intellectual experience, anyway, that I can have as a human being.

Because the human experience is infinitely variable, and I can always learn about another.
xfox: It is nice that your mother left you the gift that you can go to the library, and it's like looking at the same moon from the same location as hers. Yours is an enviable heritage all around.

Trisherina and Brynn Thank you for your condolences. You're both so dear. The SEA-TAC airport has a free book corner & I so regret I didn't have time to go there today. I sobbed at this display because Mom would have enjoyed it, alas. But while we are here we can fin d the best things. Even thought I'm traveling for work and dread leaving home when I do home is way far away. With any luck it will be there upon my return. In the meantime I heart you two. And a few other old timers, an, of course, Mo. |

You did not mess up the thread. You showed us some of the light inside you.
Today I would like to have been born in 1989, the same age as the waitress hitting on my husband right now. I'd give her a run for her money.

^ Thread-killer.
BOOYAH! Actually, living during the Stone Ages might not have been real fun, but it certainly would have been quite the experience around the campfire. I wonder how much b.s. they had to deal with from each other. "Gun-gun, you forgot to collect water two sunrises in a row." "I no like. You go." "Baby sick now. No meat for you." "I want meat! Shut up!" (runs off)

New QOD:
What are all the motivations a person could have for posting long passages from books in the image association thread so people can't connect the images together?
