Judy,

I know exactly what you mean about Dorsey in comparison to Hiaasen. I was reading one of the later ones and ended up leaving it at Boomette's house and my son-in-law carried it off somewhere and I never did finish it. But I got far enough to know that his humor sure is darker. Hiaasen is probably more my type. But I wish he would get busy and write us a new one.

Right now I am reading "The Help" by Kathryn Stockett, a first novel. The stories of women's lives in 1962 Mississippi intertwine. Lives on both sides of those lines that were not to be crossed. I heard about it from someone in my water aerobics class. Her book club was using it. It is hard to put down.

PS: I did not know about that rock group you told us about.
