i'm so glad you liked it Faithless is not a bundle of laughs. It's quite serious, but very well acted. I didn't really connect with it, but I thought it was very well done.

Hope you are feeling better, Myron- if you have what's going around here, it is a nasty virus. I was down for a week, but I have chronic bronchial complications that always make things worse. No movies, but did read four books. Time Enough for Love- Heinlein- which I have to read for a book club. The print is too small, and he is very verbose. I am fighting my way through it. Slow Man- Coetzee- I hadn't read anything of his since Waiting For The Barbarians which depressed me totally. This isn't depressing- but it also isn't nearly as good. In fact, I am not sure it's good at all. But then I am grouchy. Shopaholic Takes Manhattan- thank you Iktomi! Now THIS is a book for a sick person. Requires nothing. Just fun. How to be Good- NIck Hornby- which I already mentioned and I think was the most enjoyable one of the group Oh- and a Tami Hoag and a Joan Hess- I forgot those- kinda whipped through them.
