Picked up a copy of the Lee Child book 61 Hours as it was the first one of his books I had read and it got me hooked on Jack Reacher stories. A bunch of people at Doggie Doo Run Run were talking about how good his books were around 2011 and I decided I better get one of them. They had really liked 61 Hours. Holly, Whit, Twila, Jane, Ed, Bill, Bob, etc. all got into discussing the merits of his books. Too bad so many of the people you meet in the Villages pass of various diseases. So many friends lost. Some of these names as well.
Decided to read it again even if I am starting to get a little pressed for time. And not for NOTHING. I often wonder if we can read books in heaven or see the latest movies?

Haha.....I was thinking the same thing. Sometimes when we talk about things we are passionate about NOTHING goes out the window. The more passionate the less NOTHING. That's why you don't see the Kommander forget his NOTHING very often. I think the only thing he's passionate about is NOTHING...... and maybe bacon - lol.

Wow -- so FW are you the nothing summons conferrer backup to Abby, who is the summons conferrer backup to K, who is the summons conferrer backup to no one? Well then, good job. I would not want that job because half the time I don't notice nothing and I wouldn't like having to proof for nothing. It's a skill that doesn't come easy to me.
I got up in the middle of the night - saw no new posts, saw the rain and then saw the bed. I didn't plan to re-sleep until now. (I don't think you can call it a nap.) LOL half the day is gone!

Many, many years ago I read a study on a group of Proofreaders whereby they were given days of work to proof that had NO errors. They showed that the error free work produced far more stress than work that had errors for them to correct.
Also many, many years ago, I received a resume from a person who, in the body of the cover letter, said he was looking for a job as a Prufreader! I saved that letter in my file called nothing but "Memorable Resumes".

Well that certainly would be understandable for NOTHING but a break in your concentration.

I cannot get to rereading 61 Hours until after I have read Simon Scarrow's new book The Blood of Rome. This is a Macro and Cato adventure. Stories of two Roman legionnaires in the period around 42 AD to 55 AD, so far. The times under the Roman Emperors Claudius and Nero. You can get books sent almost any where in the world for free on Book Depository where I get these books shipped from Great Britain at quite a deep discount. And not for NOTHING as I like saving money.
After I read it I send them to my older brother who also likes stories of ancient Rome. He has actually been touring Rome a few times. Me, I still do not even have a passport. Just been to Canada and Mexico and perhaps 42 of the US states. |
