    I would love to know how "My Grammar and I" is after you're done reading it. I'd especially like to know if the "smart-alecky" section is entertaining. Happy new year!

    Oh dear, your review of Death Comes to Pemberly is disappointing to say the least. Another of my friends is reading it and I'll be interested to know if she agrees.

    'Tis the season to be exhausted. We have been running ourselves ragged but I think I actually have everything done...well, for this part of the world. We're leaving to visit Johnny's family on Tuesday and we have a bit more shopping to do for his Mom but other than that...done. And I'm really tired. How are you and yours this joyous season?

    I was just discussing this with a friend, whether the lack of Flash is an issue in the IPad. It isn't . Mainly adverts and a few news vids won't show, but they are few and far between. I did find a problem reading EPub format as Adobe Digital Editions uses their Flash, but ther are other readers.

    Again, only saw your note just now, a month late! Yes the bluetooth keyboard is good for longer posts, but the virtual one is good enough. One annoying fact is not being able to delete forwards though, so the btooth board is nice... i got one cheap on ebay.
    So, what is the news bout the libraies. soory if i seemed insensitive about te closures in your area!

    Hi. Sorry I only just saw your comment on the Tower of Babel icon I was using prior to my recent photo. I have just found a delicious engraving of book-burning that I might use next, but the iPad doesn' support Flash, as is well known, so I can't do it from here...

    Hello, mef! I enjoy your comments on BTS and am surprised I haven't started stalking you yet! I hope you don't mind joining the ranks of those I follow (written in a creapy tone of font...).

    Yes Mef I can certainly imagine such a scenario.There were and I am sure still exist today many intriguing exhibits of nature in Navajo land.

    Hi Mef,

    The following is a rather lengthy kitty cat story I felt compelled to write about after the discussion on BTS regarding cat/people behaviors.
    My sister had a black cat who disappeared on the Navajo rez for 3 months. Remember, there are not many trees/if any to climb on out there in the boonies. Well everyday non-fail my sister would go outside and call Saint kitty kitty until her voice was hoarse.After three months one morning we thought we saw or were imagining a minuscule black dot on the horizon. It was snowing-deep snow.The blackness of the dot was in stark contrast to the whiteness of the snow and lo and behold it was true,after 3 months our cat Saint had returned! Saint kitty kitty was none the worse for wear-excepting she was extremely thin to the point of being skeletal. So, if in fact you have a cat please remember this story-as a miraculous reunion could be on the horizon, as a little black dot moving towards home.

    Mef,
    I have never heard of Vista-something to research-thanks! We have a United Nations bldg. here in Balboa Park-San Diego, Calif. Perhaps they would have additional information on such organizations.

    Changing the subject-I really liked your quote! Believe it or not the Navajo's knickname for me was not Lionheart but Lionhead-due to my bedhead.:)
