    The Wolf

    Stewart is very good at finding flaws; many times he points out things that I overlooked. If I ever finish a book I'm going to let him read it first-I figure that criticism from him would be more praise than from someone not as nitpicky who would tell me "it's terrific" when it really needs...

    The Wolf

    I don't understand this at all. Written this way, you're saying that the scent of blood has less chance of getting lost. I agree with CDA-learn the difference between "it's" and "its". As to manatherindrell's remarks, I don't see why those words need to be changed.

    Making characters three-dimensional

    Yes, I got that much. Do you see this as a wake-up call for writers, editors, and such? Or is it simply someone's opinion that makes Pixar look good?

    1919-2000's A Look Back???

    Is this the series? http://www.biblio.com/books/58087981.html

    1919-2000's A Look Back???

    If you went to B&N and they knew what they were but didn't carry them, why don't you know the name of the series?

    I got a sword.

    Nothing is overkill against the creepy crawlies of the world! :D

    Making characters three-dimensional

    That was difficult to read as the actual slide-show essay wouldn't fit in the window, so I couldn't read the bottom sentences, and not seeing any buttons I started clicking on the pictures, then realized the article continued with each picture, and I didn't see a back button so I read what I...

    Interesting way to revitalize your writing career.

    Maybe sirkmyk can do something newsworthy to boost publicity for his book? What should he do? Not anything too naughty. ;)

    Just When I Think I've Heard It All

    I've heard of M. Scott Peck, but never read anything by him. This sounds disturbing though-a counselor who "sees evil"?? A psychologist or psychiatrist wouldn't think in terms of "evil". This makes me think it would make a good mystery story-a counselor who kills people he thinks have "evil" in...

    Book or e-book?

    Yes, it's important to be able to underline, or use Post-It notes on pages of importance! Where's the fun of hunting for a bookmark, when reading an e-book? Is slopping pizza sauce on a PDA quite the same as slopping pizza sauce on the pages of a book? Can an e-book be thrown across the room...

    You know you're addicted to reading when...

    I do this, and I feel dirty. :o I buy purses based on whether they will accomodate at least a paperback book.

    I got a sword.

    That is one of the grossest-looking bugs I've ever seen. I'm going to go somewhere else and try to erase this image from my mind so I don't have nightmares tonight. manatherindrell, you are evil for posting that picture! :eek:

    Westerns

    Gary Cooper? Be still, my throbbing heart! He is #2 behind John Wayne. I know Little House on the Prairie and Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman can't really be called Western shows, but I liked them because they showed how people lived on the frontier, unlike the movies where the female stars were...

    Westerns

    Well, there was always Bewitched!

    Book or e-book?

    e-books just seem unnatural and an affront to mankind, somehow! :cool:

    Westerns

    I think there was nothing else on to watch! :D

    I got a sword.

    I call anybug in the house "a bug with a death wish"-especially the ones who taunt me while I'm at the computer. Seriously, I think flies follow me from room to room and when I settle down, they proceed to annoy me like they want me to kill them. :D

    Westerns

    It looks like we'll never agree on this, so let's drop it.

    Westerns

    ooh, brings back memories: Alias Smith and Jones; Wild, Wild West (I never missed it if I could help it), and Bonanza, of course! :)

    I got a sword.

    do you think we're born with an apprehension of creepy crawly things or is it learned-i.e. by Mom or a sibling shrieking and carrying on, or yelling "don't touch that thing!"?
