When ever I think of the term ‘book club’ it conjures up images of blue hairs drinking tea and discussing the latest harlequin romance novel they've devoured (not that there’s anything wrong with that)! And while I’m sure we’ll get there, six years into the evolution of our book club we’re dressing up like our heroines and discussing if we lost our virginity the ‘good’ or ‘bad’ way, all (of course) in the context of the book! How freakin’ cool & intellectual is that?!
I'm now just getting into our next book which is about the cultural, medical & spiritual clashes between Hmong & American cultures in 'The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down' by Anne Fadiman.
What are you reading?

If you read Metamorphosis by Kafka, I'm gettin' in a plane and flying over there for that one because I have to see you in a big-ass cockroach outfit.
Sharon, you make me laugh! You look like one of the extras at the local Fairy party place I took my daughter to last month!
Lano,
PS, love the socks :)
CI: You might be on to something here and at only 80 pages I'd have lots of time to work on my costume! Jesus-I’m about to order it on Amazon, Wait! someone give me another recommendation that costs at least $17.00 & my order will qualify for FREE Super Saver Shipping!
Lano: Jeepers a makeshift fairy costume and frekles-they’ll think I’m a native!
PS: When can we expect the release of lano.blogspot.com?
Is that really your old wedding dress? You looked so beautiful on The Day all those aeons ago. I have to confess the socks do it for me, together with the tiara such refinement for a Yorkshire lass:-)
Mater

Something on the internet while the Zen guide to the motorocycle maintenance stays untouched in the backpack...
I need a internet addicts support group...
Hey mater that's not my old wedding dress and while I might have looked great on The Day-I looked better at The End!
Meesh: Don't fool us I've seen you with your head stuck in "weather systems for dummies"!
Ely: A star is born!
Lano: Bloody fantastic, now I get to check your blog at work, how extremely cool is that?! Good job.
Cammar: If you’re looking at the pictures on La Republica that doesn’t count as reading!
