RE: Are Valentine's Day books lining Cheryl's she-shed?
Oh no, I wasn't suggesting I was going to write it this year--I'm way too busy for that to be finished in time. And I absolutely only write what interests me--I wouldn't write a Christmas story or any

Not everybody is a book person??? Why, we'll just have to make them so! :-) No, you're absolutely right, although it would be nice if more people at least appreciated books. Both books and video have their

RE: Happy birthday to Wizard of Oz -- the movie
Once Upon a Time offered alternative story arcs to just about every story ever told! I enjoyed their version of the story very much. They did something similar on the TV show Supernatural, with the addition

RE: Creating Hopewell, and the Storm Chaser universe, or not
That's a great story! And it just goes to show how these little things can get blown up, and believed by the gullible. Or the people who don't take the time to do their research ... although I have to

RE: Animal stories
Animals at our state parks tend to be, shall we say, more generous in proportions compared to in other areas. Humans keep getting told not to feed them ... but they do anyway. I actually had to fight a

My wife actually owns a snake, which is instantly fascinating to my grandkids. All we can do is keep exposing young people to things outside the internet, and hope they pick up an appreciation for both!
