speaking of grocery store lines. I miss the day when the only 'tabloid' that was on the rack was People. My sister doesn't believe me when I tell her that or that people smoked in grocery stores. lol
She's never known a computer without a 'mouse' :( I'm old.

Sadly the series of novels has come to a end

For those who have not heard or do not kno. Sadly Mr Jordan passed away on the 16th of September 2007 from complications of primary [a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amyloidosis" title="Amyloidosis"]amyloidosis.[/a]  he was undergoing chemo therapy and other treatments at the time. ( i have not written of this before now. i was so terribly heart broken to lose my favorite author. even now, i find myself growing sad. losing his writing is like losing a best freind.) leaving the last book in the series [a title="A Memory of Light" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Memory_of_Light"]A Memory of Light[/a]  partially written yet unfinnished.  Mr Jordan family along with the publisher have brought in Brandon Sanderson to finish the work.  so those of us who are huge fans of his collective writtings, can read the conclussion to this fantastic series of novels.

the estimated release date for A memory of light is november of 2009
   
Never give up Never surrender Fight with ur last breath Fight 2 live & Fight 2 survive. Never say never & never say die. There comes a time when all will die A time we transcend & attain our place afterlife. My Fight is not yet done, I'm tired & I'd like to go home, But I'm not ready to go just yet.

Oh my.... yes, Tila is quite the pretty thing, isn't she?

  I'm off Robert Jordon. No offense but I'm getting bored with his stuff. I'm now reading Quest for Lost Heroes by David Gemmell.

I had a long break from reading, but finally found this book to read:

Believe it or not, Purelife. I've also had a long break from reading! It's getting uncanny, isn't it? Anyway, I've just started my second reading of The Great Gatsby.
