You have a great attitude and it is really smart of you to take special care not to avoid bad habits that could lead to having those serious diseases. Keep up the good work, Dixie Girl.

I read Rhett Butlers people.....I thought it was awful, I actually cringed while reading a lot of it....it had potential, the idea was a good one, the result....ugh.....I'm glad I only checked it out the library and didnt actually buy it

Ed that is sooo funny. Better the ten cent fine than having paid full price for the book. Susan

Anybody know how many copies that book has actually sold? Evidently not many based on what I am reading here at CWi.

No doubt a followup of GWTW would have some public interest. (Does anyone know if book clubs picked it up?) In our community, you gotta know that we're going to walk around it and sniff it thoroughly before taking a bite. I still haven't read GWTW, although I think it is around here somewhere. Shucks, I don't think I've read any of Shaara's works, and I know where they are. Too many books; too little time. ole
