Are you a member of his fan page on Facebook? My husband is, but I'm not...yet.

I said I don't like scary stories, but if that one has a point, it's "try not to let the world get to this point--anywhere--and if it does, don't believe what the women in burqas say about how "happy" they are."Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01374498643286099244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6000858382516594426.post-68056346608859611062009-09-15T14:08:12.493-04:002009-09-15T14:08:12.493-04:00Your habit of making jokes when you are nervous is...Your habit of making jokes when you are nervous is endearing. But pity the poor author who chooses to play you in croquet. The term "cutthroat" leaps to mind.<br />Thanks for the interviews, which were great fun to read and have provided me with more ideas of books I need to read (as if that list needed to grow any longer).PAJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6000858382516594426.post-46087304429632891422009-09-15T12:02:58.317-04:002009-09-15T12:02:58.317-04:00Hee -- you had me with Jasper Fforde, but Margaret...Hee -- you had me with Jasper Fforde, but Margaret Atwood was just too scary for me.
