    Just wanted to tell you that if you remember the case of Casey Anthony whose 2 yr. old daughter went missing for a month before she was forced to tell her mom and dad. Nancy Grace is in Orlando, Florida in court following this case and it is the O.J. Simpson case of the 21st century. Tot-mom, Casey lived with her parents &
    got pregnant and continued to live with parents but loved to party...anyway, I won't bore you will all the details but now she is accusing her dad and brother of sexual abuse when she was young and growing up. So she threw her dad and brother under the bus to save her own sorry self...and it is on Channel 37 at 10:00pm
    if you are interested. Nancy Grace looks like she is ready to get up and go over to the defendant and strangle her...save the tax payers some $.....lol. The prosecutor has got all her boyfriends lined up to take the stand for the prosecution. Interesting....

    Hi Marilena...that is a very good book and don't forget I have alot of chill thrillers that will curl your hair....ALL true crime books. Right now Marilena, you probably don't know about it or haven't heard it lately but that tot mom Casey Anthony is on Channel 37 with the Nancy Grace show and they are covering her trial. She is up for Murder One with the death penalty. Her little 2 year old daughter, as cute as a button, was murdered. Casey is a party girl and the little tot was cramping her style...plus she lived at home with mom and dad, no problem there, but her and mother had some HUGE issues. They had a big fight and Mother actually put her hands around daughter Casey's neck at one time and then Casey stormed out grabbing grandaughter and that would be the last time grandma and grandpa would see
    that little tot again. She is the one that kept quiet for a month about her deceased daughter (she pretended she didn't know that Caylee was dead) and told the police and her parents and brother lie after lie after lie. Now what I think is truly going on here is Casey got rid of her little girl to GET BACK AT HER MOTHER! This murder happened in 08 and Casey has been sitting in prison all that time and not ONCE has she ever accused her father or brother of sexual abuse growing up. NOW
    that the trial has started, her defense attorney is telling the jury that Casey was sexually abused by her father and brother. Talk about throwing your dad under the bus....it is intriguing...you should watch it.....glad you are back to reading....the computer does really get tiring and frustrating....enjoy!

    I am so glad you are enjoying your books. I agree that GWTDT is not a book yu can read at work. Light reading is good for when you are around other people that can distract you. You are enjoying it and that is the main thing. I like reading all different kinds of books. I just think Salandar is your kind of girl. You will get such a kick out of her. There are three diffrent people reading that series at work. Marilyn Martindale is reading the third book now and she loves Salandar. It is too bad the authour died, (he had a heart attack) He was a journalist like one of the main characters in the book. I think those are the only books he wrote. Sad, he was such a good writer.
    I am doing okay. In the next couple of weeks I will be down to 2 nights a week so my life will get be a lot less hectic. I am finally feeling better about the job but it is still a crazy place. I am glad I stuck it out as I have been able to put a bit away for a rainy day and it will be nice to have extra moolah coming in for vacations and stuff. I will not have to take money from mom anymore. It is nice to pay back. Hope life is good for you. Will be nice to get together soon. Do you have any new crafts to show me for xmas? B4N :) M

    Hey there. I must warn you that it is really hard to get into TGWTDT. After you get into the first 50-100 pages you will be hooked. You have to get to know the characters and all the names are sweedish so it is a big of a drag at first. You have to read it though because I think you will really enjoy the mane character "Salandar". She is such a crazy amazing character and tough. It is so satisfying at the end. I think you will really relate to her character as she always has a way of getting even with the people who harm her and she has been treated so badly in her past. Have I got you hooked. The movie leaves so much out. There is no way they can capture all the details in a movie. The books are always way better.

    Yes I should, so far I have been exchanging notes with Greg from Kansas, interesting but haven't had time for much more yet. I love this site. I have enough reading material to keep me going for a long long time. I like reading and don't want to spend too much time monitoring to many peoples notes.

    Hey Mare, thanks for getting me started on Shelfari. What better way to keep track of all my books. I just finished the 2nd book of the Stieg Larsson series. I am going out to get the final book, "The Girl who kicked the Hornets Nest" What great reading, I highly recommend you read all 3, The Girl with the Dragoon Tatoo, The Girl that Played with Fire and The Girl that Kicked the Hornets Nest. Bye for Now, Hope all is good

    I would have loved to hear your conversation at work...it would be hilarious..it does sound like we belong in the funny farm..but Marilena, I kind of am liking Farmtown better then
    Farmville..as you pointed out..in Farmville nothing moves, the animals sit like lumps..whereas the other place everybody is moving...but still there is alot I can't get my mind around.
    So if I don't send you something or don't answer..be patient, I know you are anyway, but MORE patient...have you had time to read at all...or should I ask...:)
