Sorry, Michael, Kindle won’t replace wowOwow. Enhance, yes, but not replace. Wednesday afternoon I stopped by the Kindle kiosk at my local Borders. The book I sought, EPIPHANIES by Ann Jauregui, was out of stock. It’ll arrive Monday from Amazon. The wait totally frustrates me, hence, Kindle is on my Mother’s Day wish list.

Thrilled to be reading PRIDE AND PREJUDICE by Jane Austin. I spend so much time reading online I’d put books on the night stand where they’d collect dust. After reading A NEW EARTH by Eckhart Tolle, I brushed off PAP and started enjoying Elizabeth Bennett’s timeless romance with Mr. Darcy.

Sure, but I ignored it and either I or it walked away.

Right on, Tinka. A lot can happen in the next 6 months … Obama and Clinton might come to the conclusion they can only win on a joint ticket … lay down their arms and embrace one another. Come on, politics makes strange, and seemingly unimaginable, bedfellows. I don’t see why Hilary Clinton should bow out just because she’s a few votes behind. If she was Bill would be expect him to pick up his toys and go home. Never!! As long as she has a fighting chance she should hang in there and fight. Are Democrats so shallow that they wouldn’t support whomever the party is promoting? They’d rather vote Republican or not vote at all? If that’s the case it’s not the candidates who are in trouble, it’s the voter. Democrats better wake up and smell the coffee, or crude oil. We cannot afford 4 more years of a Republican presidency.

I was too young and naive to understand our participation in the Vietnam War until it was over. However I did participate in the Million Woman March in Philadelphia (1997), which was awe inspiring. So many woman supporting a common goal - strengthening the family. Now the only marching I do is yearly participation in the 5K Susan Komen Race for the Cure. http://cms.komen.org/komen/index.htm

Democracy at work. I LOVE it!

Fantastic information, Lesley. Gastric bypass cures high blood pressure, diabetes and some forms of cancer. Phenomenal. I’ve a cousin who considered this surgery 15 years ago. Today he’s got hi-blood pressure, diabetes, gout and failed kidneys. He might have had a fighting chance if he’d pursued the surgery. Who knew … THANK YOU for the help you’ve provided to future generations.

True, Mugsy. Thanks for the tip.

Yummers. What time will lunch be served?

Wish I was a better steward of time management.

KB - Good to know there’s light at the end of the tunnel. I was beginning to think he’d never get it.

Men don’t understand that we talk amongst ourselves to be social, to express ourselves, to share our own opinion, not because we want a man to solve a problem for us. I’m often bewildered when my husband will launch into analysis and solution when I tell him about an interesting tidbit of my day. Relax already.

That’s a very cynical view of women, Mark. When a marriage is in trouble it’s not just the woman’s problem/fault. It takes two to make a marriage or a divorce.

Live each day to its fullest. Trust your intuition.

Amen, Suzanne!
