    So there are some MST3K fans still out there! The glory days of Comedy Central right there (or I guess it was just The Comedy Channel back then) Too bad they have such a hard time finding funny stuff anymore.

    Well, I'm not sure there's an official way to report this, but I did comment in the Shelfari Insiders group about it, so hopefully they'll look into it.

    That's great, by the way, that Jamie wasn't upset with you. Or at least that he chose not to show it when you got home!

    I'm not a massive crime/thriller fan either but I read Carlton Mellick's Menstruating Mall and he says it was as near his interpretation of the genre he would do and gave this And then there were none as his reference point.

    Lenore is hit and miss, the collections are worth buying though as there are little moments of greatness. Some of Roman Dirge's other comics are better Cat With the really big head is hilarious.

    I've no read Squee or I feel Sick yet but JTHM is cool have you ever seen the mini comic Jhonen Vasquez (under the name Mr Scolex) did with Crab Scrambly its called Everything can Be Beaten, its a tiny piece of awesome about smooshing kittens... it works in its own dark little way and I can't recommend it enough if you like Jhonen's other stuff.

    Thought so! I just saw 1001 Nights in the bookstore yesterday. I am about to leave for bellydancing, so I'll see if I can contact the developers or at least figure out how to go about reporting editions that were "wrongly" combined later tonight or tomorrow. Thanks! (And good to know I can just pick it up and read it anytime...)

    I just wanted to check with you (since I haven't read these ones yet). Volume 6 of Fables (Homelands) is not the same as 1001 Nights of Snowfall, is it? Where exactly does 1001 Nights fall?

    I'm looking at this here on shelfari, and these have been combined into one edition. I suspect it's not right, and I'd like to contact the developers to let them know if it should be separated. But, since I haven't actually read them myself yet, I thought I'd confirm with someone who I know has read them! :-) Thanks!

    i'll be interested to hear how you find AND THEN THERE WERE NONE. I just read a story with points and homages to it and haven't yet read it.

    I also noticed you changed your picture back to Jamie. How was he when you got home? Was he mad at you?

    I figured that was why there wasn't one big book of all the Fables stories. Maybe when they finish it? It's one I keep recommending to people, so if I had it, I could lend it out. And I'm thinking, since it's a graphic novel and it's so fast to read, it might be one I'd consider rereading.

    The shopping, I was surprised it was kind of fun. But then, usually I'm shopping alone and that's never as much fun. I was with my friend Nancy, so that helped, I think. I just wish I had more places to wear the dress, though! Or even a place! ;-)

    I took at look at some of the graphic novels in a bookstore today while I was out shopping (take a look at the link I posted on facebook - I bought a new dress and I posted a link to a picture of it). I kind of wish Fables was out as one volume. I might actually buy it if it was. As it is, though, I don't want to buy each individual volume, though. :-(

    Hi! I just wanted to let you know I've mailed you an early Christmas gift. :-) I saw it and thought you'd like it (I hope so, anyway). It's just coming regular mail, but I think she said it should be there within a week or so.

    Thanks! Shelfari has some wonderful groups. Hope I can find time to participate in yours, it looks good, with people making interesting comments. And yes, Terry Pratchett is great, actually astounding at times!

    Zanzibar's simply beautiful! The traffic jams in Dar were a real torture, though.
    I'm dying to see the Victoria Falls. It sounds like you had a ball over there.
    Can't wait for the November discussions to start!

    Thanks for the friend request!

    I moved to Houston about 6 months ago. Before that I was living in Southeast Texas in a town call Silsbee. It was about 1 hour from Lake Charles. As you know lots of cruises in Galveston, New Orleans, Albama, and FL

    All of my mom's family is in a small town in East Texas, 10 miles from Fort Polk. Growing up we went to Natchitoches a couple of times during the Holidays. My husband and I took our kids one summer and we went for anniversary one year. I really enjoy the town. Sounds like I need to come see the new way of celebrating!

    I look forward to getting to know you better. Sounds like we will have a lot to discuss!
