I add 1/2 cup skim milk and 1/4 cup of raisins to the oatmeal. When I'm done eating the oatmeal, the coffee's ready. EVERY MORNING. Then, when I'm away, Barbara goes shopping alone and buys Raisin Bran (Kellogg's, it was on sale) freakin' Raisin Bran! Has the world gone insane! Must everything change? In a cold sweat, I go to the RJ site: it'll always be there, always be the same. I'll be OK, yes OK. AAARGGHHHHH!!! It's changed! I stuff a box of Raisin Bran into the CD-ROM. Still not what I'm used to! It's all different and scarry. I look in the mirror. I'm sure that I look a bit fuzzy around the edges.

Change is good. Yes, that's it: change good. I'll be OK. You'll see. No, really. I like it. Change good.

Slick, modern, and very stylish.

The co-Queens outdid themselves!

Pleiades Wrote:The site does look snazzy! A nice job and lots of work. Thanks for your efforts.

The description of All The Rage is the same as that for The Tomb. While many authors do publish the same stories again and again with different titles, Paul doesn't do that. You should fix that sometime, unless this is an insider's reference to the famous switched paragraph in Reprisal, in which case... COOL!

Actually, I was copying book descriptions from Barnes and Noble. Feast yer eyes on this B&N All the Rage description!

I'll change it.

Sometimes when you shrink a large graphic down, it just doesn't recreate so well. Maybe it just needs to be recreated from scratch as a smaller graphic. Or maybe it needs to be a jpeg instead of a gif.

Ken Valentine Wrote:Looks like somebody at B&N took paragraphs from the reviews of a couple of RJ novels, tossed them into the air, and wrote them up in what-ever order they happened to hit the floor.

What a mess!

There's a book coming out early next year, A FREEWHEELING TIME, by Bob Dylan's old girlfriend Suze Rotolo. She and Bob are walking together on the cover of FREEWHEELIN' BOB DYLAN. And he wrote songs about her, including IT AIN'T ME BABE, BALLAD IN PLAIN D, and the sublime TO RAMONA. Guess where the B&N Bookmaster system tells us the book should be shelved?

Opera.:eek:
