I use Shelfari mainly to keep track of favorite books I might want to read again, or recommend to friends... I also use the "plan to read" shelf as a wish list, so that I don't forget which books I want next (hint, hint, shoppers!). I can't possibly take the time to enter all books I've read, or am reading, or own; I'd have no time left for... more »

    Hi Tanya,
    Can you re-invite me to the vegetarian group? I unjoined all my groups temporarily. Am presently reading CANCER WARD by the Russian writer Alexander Sol--------I'm drawing a blank-geez if only I could spell or remember in Russian!I wrote about the book CANCER WARD on the Better Than Starbucks (BTS) group site for Oct. reads -posted a fabulous quote from the book regarding the purposes of reading/writing literature. Will check out the author Hiassen. BTW-Have you heard of this movement?

    “Brought to you by the people who occupy wall street.

    “We are the 99 percent. We are getting kicked out of our homes. We are forced to choose between groceries and rent. We are denied quality medical care. We are suffering from environmental pollution. We are working long hours for little pay and no rights, if we're working at all. We are getting nothing while the other 1 percent is getting everything. We are the 99 percent.”

    Just thought I'd pass it on-just in case you know people who are part of the 99%- :)

    It's so good to know of someone who has read Salter. I didn't care for the last book she wrote. I'm improving! Nikki and Kevin told me to tell you hello. I think you will like that Dave Barry book.

    Hi Tanya,
    I am happy to be your Shelfari friend. I read She's message below. "The Last Look Detailers" you gotta love them! My whole family is sensitive to medications-my brother went without any painkillers after a life threatening back operation. The doc thought he was crazy but my brother said "At least if I feel pain I know I am alive." Shockingly my brother did indeed survive the op., however his surgeon dropped dead 3 days later. I always want to do a background check on my docs to see if they are keeping up good health care practices for themselves..regular physicals and such. It would be easy to forget taking care of yourself when your job is taking care of others. I like a lot of books you are reading-esp. The Winter Of Our Disconnect. I'll be reading your review if you choose to write one. Hope you & your family are doing A.O.K.

    Thanks for your witchy thoughts and everyone's good intentions and prayers, surgery was iminently(sp?) postponed (while on the table) - apparently some last look detailers found my liver enzymes and coags off to the degree that I may not have made it through....or actually made it to stay on this side as opposed to the other side....It seems the Rx given to me to control tumor growth has a nasty but rare side effect of creating gallstones. Lucky me, I often am the rare side-effect gal and I've been throwing stones for several days and one got stuck.

    Hi Tanya!
    Nice to hear from you. Thank you for helping me out with my veggie site compulsion..it was a tad embarassing. About using Shelfari in schools ..I've noticed quite a few libraries signed up. Do you have a Facebook?

    Hello Tanya,
    I deleted the majority of my comments in the Thought YOU Might Like discussion..wondering if you might be able as an administrator to delete the whole discussion, as it has been up quite awhile with no comments. I hope you can help me out, as I tend to veg out with obsessive compulsive writing. I hope I didn't mess up the site..Thanks.

    Hello Again Tanya,
    Since I am unable(as far as I know) to edit my post below I will instead apologize for: Lack of paragraphing and esp. the way I wrote about the Socratic Questoning method for people with "Beautiful Minds". The blurb I mention below was read by me on the web weeks before I was even aware of the Alexandria info. I hope this pre-view will help you in understanding my mumbo-jumbo!

    Hi Tanya!
    Is that your pup in your new picture? Very cute! I have been reading the recent discussion on Alexandria Forum ..interesting! I saw a blurb about Socratic Questioning being used as a type of cognitive guidance for psychotic people. I myself do not have the type of personality that is needed to debate, as I tend to prefer poetry readings. However, right before I read the Alexandria Forum I posted on the NNBR group about discussing/debating ethics and such. Presently I am a little worn out with debating as someone close to me has been diagnosed as psychotic and delusional and this is why I was reading the blurb about Socratic Questioning in the 1st place. On the bright side I have also seen it mentioned on the web that last yr. people were prescribed double..possibly triple the amount of anti-psychotic medicines as last yr. Possibly/ probably the drug companies could once again be up to no good. Like we have discussed and agreed upon in the past it is difficult to know where to turn when the issue of trust is a concern. Happy to have you as a cyber friend..keep up the good works!
