In that you only get 20 minutes a week for the steep price of $279/mo, I don't think you would be in any danger of being bored or running out of things to do!!

Perhaps you'll be able to enjoy it vicariously when I write my recap!

To Ted, perhaps you'll like the book I just submitted to my publisher. It will have illustrations!

I recently met a woman who told me she owned 3,000 cookbooks and another 2,000 books!!

Alex, you know we all take everything you write as gospel!

You just never know what will be next. In another month, I DO plan to write a piece on my publisher and my experience and list where the book can be found. I'll be shamelessly promoting my book in my columns in the Dunwoody Crier and here! I am fortunate to have seven local shops signed up to offer the book, but need to get cracking on a more comprehensive marketing plan.

I always have a book to read while in a waiting room. Heaven forbid I'd spend any time staring when I could be reading! But yes, my smartphone is my fallback these days when I end up somewhere without my book, like waiting for a friend in a restaurant.

Can you believe he provided it?

Great tribute. We moved to Atlanta in 1967, and I recall 285 being built. Too funny that folks used it to race on!

I do too when I can't find them at the library. I bet the library has most of these though.

I'm thinking if the Roto-Rooter man had taken over the procedure with his tool, you wouldn't be writing this story. Thankfully, I've only had 3 colonoscopies, and yes, that's 3 too many.

Hmmm. My trainer occasionally has us use the Bosu, similar to the balance pad, but not often to stand on. More often, we use it for pushups, or we sit balanced on it with legs in the air (for abs), or lunge on and off of it. But hey, we're all still trying...except perhaps for TMc.

Even Gwyneth Paltrow named her child Apple. Go figure. Instead of a trend that fades away, this behavior looks as though it will be with us for quite some time. May I just eloquently say, "ICK?"

As your resident grammar geek, I will continue sending "stuff" like this. See, I can be informal every once in a while.

Or perhaps this falls into the category of "boys will be boys."

As a non-Catholic, St. Christopher is one of the few I recognize. But I digress; I cannot believe the paper would not refer to this man as Archbishop. What's up with that? Is this political correctness carried yet another step too far?

Love the video clips and the memories. You may be interested in the column I wrote for the Dunwoody Crier this year (www.thecrier.net) about their August concert in Norcross and my memories of this wonderful group.
