Let's Talk About Anything!!!

Hi,

 Shirley here.  Just popping in to see what's going on.  The new format threw me for a moment, but I got it.  I like that I can add this to my favourites (English Spelling) and not have a difficult time finding it as I did with the other format.

Wayne,

 I didn't see whether you'd gotten an answer about New Spirit not accepting submissions on the old board before it was shut down.  I'm putting this here because we apparently can't start new discussions in the New Spirit folder.

Hi,

 Arabesque does reissue some of the books.  However, one way to let the publishers know you want the books is to write to them.  You'll have to snail mail a letter to the editors at Kimani Arabesque and ask them about reissues.  Tell them your love of the books.  A letter goes a long way.

I finished On My Terms and really enjoyed it. You mean I have missed something.

I just went to look over your newsletter and realized I have The Secret. I bought it when it was released and I ashamed to say I haven't read it. I didn't realize it was Clayton story and it was related to A Father’s Fortune  and Love on Call. I think it was the switch of publishers that confused me. Now that know it is definitely moving out of the box and to the top of the list. I just wrote a comment that I have been hoarding great gems in my TBR boxes.

Well Rosa's book is going on my 2008 must read list as well as Right Guy, Wrong Gown. I'm glad you put out that newsletter.

Not a winter-cold person, but I'm disappointed that we didn't get a nice snow storm to make things official in Maryland.  So now I want Spring to enter the picture. LOL

My list is short this summer. Maybe there are others that will catch my eye.

• The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
• Hancock
• The Incredible Hulk

We just saw MADE  OF HONOR and IRON MAN. We enjoyed both of them. We'll be seeing HANCOCK and THE HULK this summer for sure. I'm also waiting to see what cool romantic comedies will be released. Gotta have my chick flicks.

Michelle - How was Indiana Jones?

Right now I am finding it difficult to find movies to watch and with my favorite TV going into off season I am going crazy. Oh, well more time to read.  

If you were a fan of Indiana Jones, then it's right up your alley.  Nothing spectacularly different.  But I enjoyed it.  I liked all the movies with all its over-the-top story lines and extreme characters.

 I did hold out for a cameo of Sean Connery, just because...

 But I have to say that Harrison Ford sported his 65 year old physique very well.  Face was always weathered, but his body was in shape.  And even though I know they used stunt men, he still had to be pretty agile to do what he did.

It gets my vote.

Friday morning on the 'Today' show,Rhianna

will be singing starting at 8:30am. I guess

she'll be bringing her "Umbrella". Wayne,

I want to see the "Hulk" movie. I stopped at

BurgerKing and bought a toy Hulk. I enjoy

playing like a kid again. LOL!

That's what I'm interested in seeing. I have heard the things they are saying about Heath Ledger, but I am a Jack fan and I loved his Joker.
