    Hello, "Goober". Was browsing thru some of the different readers and came across you. I had to laugh at what your Husband calls you. It made me think of what I call my Wife, Eileen. At times I call her "Pollock", meaning she does dumb stuff at times. She's Polish, was born and raised in a Coal Mining Town North of here, named Minersville, PA. It's all in fun, of course.

    We enjoy going to the "Gateway of The Smokies" ourselves, when we can. The Great Smoky Mountains are always a great treat for us. Most of my Relation can be traced back to the South. Greenville, TN is a place that I remember well in my younger years.

    Stay well, Goober! I'll be watching.

    "goober"???? you look nothing at all like andy of mayberry's local auto mechanic unless that stupid lil hat he always wore makes much more of a difference than i can imagine. if you are here at this site then moe is too i'll bet and i want you both as literary (and literal) friends. i will certainly consider your book recommendations and what a selection of reads you already have here! i am waaaaaaaaaay behind on my reading but maybe with your help i can stop lollygagging and "brush up my shakespere".

    I haven't been to see Ironman much to my dismay. But I've heard from everyone that its fabulous. I want to go see Wanted. I think it will be a very fun movie.
    I can't wait to see Dark Knight. I was so sad when I heard my man, Heath Ledger, died. :(
    A new Mummy movie is coming out this summer also. The Secret Life of Bees is coming out in October. Read the book, its awesome. Harry Potter 6 is coming out in November. Yay!!!
    Watch Charlie Bartlett. It's on dvd. Not great cenima but fun to watch.

    Love

    A tree missed my car by 1 1/2 feet durring that storm. The hail had no effect on my car though. What kind of honda did you get? Is it brand-spankin?
    I'm just reading like I'm never going to see a book again.
    Web site: vladstudios.com. Great free wallpapers and e-cards.
    Don't go see The Happening unless you like senseless gore.

    Love

    This is so strange...I was just thinking about you last night. We are on high ground, about a block and a half past Blanchette Park so we are not in any danger from the flood water. Last week it was bank full, I haven't been downtown since last Thursday so I don't know where the water is now. If I get up early enough tomorrow morning I may take the camera out and see if I can get some pictures. I hope you and yours are doing well. It was great to hear from you.

    We were on the east coast, stationed in New River, which was part of Camp Lejeune, (Marine Corps) in Jacksonville. But every chance we could we would drive off to quaint places like Sneads Ferry, Emerald Isle and Wilmington which I loved. We haven't been back in years probably has changed in 20 years!~~CJ

    Hi Goober, thanks for the input on the book. I am a true crime fan, and have to admit I can get into the reality TV too. Loved JD Fortune in Rock Star --Afterglow is a great song! I lived in NC for two years when my husband was stationed there. Thats why I also love reading Nicholas Sparks so many of his stories are set in places like New Bern, Moorehead City, and Wilmington.-CJ

    Dear Goober: If you enjoy a good thrill ride when you read, please be on the lookout for my new novel, HUNTING THE KING, coming in April.

    HUNTING THE KING is a fast-paced page-turner that follows archaeologist Molly O'Dwyer into war torn Iraq in search of the remains of Jesus. ForeWord Magazine says: "Fans of intellectual thrillers and historical fiction will find a worthy new voice in Clenott. His best invention may be Molly O’Dwyer, a genuinely likeable heroine who more than holds her own in a man’s world. An ambitious scientist, she is also an observant Catholic whose heart and mind don’t always agree. Given such an auspicious start, the sequel can't come too soon."

    While the book isn't available until April, you can find it on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kunati Books and other googleable sites. You won't be disappointed.

    To get a good sense of how exciting the novel is check out the heartpounding trailer for the book at http://www.kunati.books/hunting-the-king-peter-clenott/. Or you can view it on YouTube or my web site at www.peterclenott.com. Let me know what you think. Your response will let me know if I am reaching the right readers. Thanks.

    Peter
