    First of all, that's a great review, and I thank you for sending it over to me for some reading. I'm still highly curious to read the book, but might not be in as much of a hurry just now. Perhaps at some later time during the next year.

    Thank you again :)

    I received Anita's note. Thanks for adding me to your friends list! I've had a pretty lousy July and want to do something fun and boost my energy. Somehow, reading always does it to me! Good luck with the challenge!!

    I am soooo sorry. My internet has been down for the past 2 weeks. I still want to be on your team. Is it too late?

    Whenever the topic of Scotsmen comes up, my friend always declares that Scottish pipers make the best lovers because they can finger, squeeze, and blow all at the same time.

    And howdy, new pardner! I suppose we should execute some nefarious scheming...

    That is a really good idea, actually. Thanks for letting me know. I'd have to figure out who to leave the info with, first... But I'll definitely think about it. My brother might be the best option...

    Hi! I hope your partner (who is no longer your partner) is o.k. I have had some of the same concerns as you - what if something happens to our online friends and no one knows... Wouldn't that be awful? It has crossed my mind about me, too... if something happened to me. The best I can hope is that my real-life friends would write something on facebook, and since I have a few shelfari friends there, they could pass it on.
