It was pretty dead in there. Too bad for all of us. Thanks, Tony I had a successful signing at a mall in Newport News, VA tonight (12 books), but I’ll tell you

Cicero was where Al Capone lived. In fact, I'm a mutt -- one-fourth Irish, one-fourth English, one-fourth German, and one-fourth Czech. When I see men behaving badly toward women, I become very angry very quickly. Today, I was standing on the bus when a pregnant woman boarded. I thought of you, Janice. The students from Venice High were too rude (as they always are) to offer her a seat. I politely asked a Mexican-American teenager sitting by me to give his seat to the pregnant woman. He ignored me. I asked him again. He still ignored me. My Irish kicked in. I had him standing so fast that neither he nor his buddies couldn't believe it! I then motioned to the pregnant woman to take the seat. She smiled, said "Thank You," and sat down. The rude teenager and his buddies looked away from me until they got off the bus about a mile later. Punks!

It called for 3-5 inches of snow. Most locales around here got about an inch, and the advisory was cancelled around 6 a.m. We get a lot of these false alarms in the winter months. A lot of people don't take them seriously because they miss so badly and so often. I'm no meteorologist. I'm sure it's tough to make these forecasts, but I wish their record was a little better.

I have another Christmas shopping story to share. I decided to order my niece something from discoverthis.com. It's too bad I didn't think of it yesterday when I ordered the other stuff so I could have saved on shipping--oh well. Anyway, I found a Young Scientists set with 3 kits in it: Weather; Solids, Liquids, Gases; and Volcanoes. She'll get to make a volcano, which should be rather interesting! The set has won all kinds of awards so it sounds like a good one. What I really want to share is one of the categories of kits that they have. I didn't see this yesterday. I bet everyone knows someone who would love this: Gross, Yucky and Disgusting Science Kits. Somehow I don't think my niece would like a kit called "Blood, Bones and Body Bits"! Hopefully she's too delicate for that! Well, since I'm hungry I better get my mind off of body bits and get something to eat! Have a great evening everyone. Margie Hey Gang,

I could see them establishing limits if it's just a cosmetic thing, but if your doctor felt it was necessary to remove them, then only God knows why they limit it to two at a time! It seems like the crazier the idea, the more likely insurance companies are to come up with them! Your dinner sounds good! I went out shopping after work and just brought a frozen dinner home with me and that doesn't sound nearly as good as Chili's! We need to get one of those around here. Well, now I'm hungry so I better go eat! Have a great evening. Margie Hey Gina,
