Very funny post earlier, JC. And thanks for writing to Bill. He doesn't post often, but always has something interesting to say when he does. I grew up with Ann Marie, BTW. The Capuano-Fahey case was the first thing that came to mind when I read about Chandra Levy and Gary Condit, and is why I've been so quiet on the topic. My gut says Levy was pregnant and he murdered her in a rage. I hope I'm wrong.

I've finished chapter 3 of The Stranger. I actually like the book. I don't normally read anything that fits under the general umbrella of "literature." Perhaps it's time, in my dotage, that I revisite that distaste, which was formed many, many years ago. The thing I liked best about it is how much it gets you cheering for law enforcement to bring down an arrogant, self-absorbed, clever, powerful individual. I remember Anne Marie Fahey, now that you mention her. I'll put that book on my list. Mystery stories are more my style than Camus. And I share your special feelings about arrogant, etc. individuals. I just got back from a lovely Ethiopian lunch to turn on CNBC and hear Joshua Bell playing West Side Story on the violin. (Life is sweet.) I had never heard of him. The arrangement and performance were wonderful. So I'll be shopping for music as well as books. Have you compared the Edward Hamilton catalog with the web site? I don't want a catalog that leaves ink on my fingers. The absolutely best thing about the web is that I don't have to deal with newsprint and ink anymore. Karen

You are obviously enjoying being a Very Bad Boy and I don't want to discourage you, because I am loving your posts. This morning's dialogue between you and yourself was delightful. We should all be such excellent company for us. You ARE keeping Karen from her homework, but she is the rebellious sort anyway. And probably the kind who partied all night and still got her assignment in on time. Are these prices for REAL???? 3.95? I have GOT to look at this site more closely. Also, Ann Rule's name is very familiar-- must go see....
