Last Thursday was "Bring Your Brat to Work" day and I brought my 11 year old neice to my government job. All the time thinking, WWJD? I know I am a bureaucrat (like my father before me){love saying that, people always look at me weird cause it is kind of familiar......} and that is as far from Jack's line as one can get, but it still reminded me of when I started this thread and what would Jack say if and when Vicky asks him? She's gotta ask what he does for a living at somepoint. She's eight and very very curious. Still reading the series again, now am at Harbingers and still loving it. Many authors I like, I find it hard to reread so soon because the writing is not visual. I guess "Paul" is perfect for me because when I read his stories, I can actually picture every detail. Some other others (Turtledove) I find hard to read again because he tends to repeat himself alot, chapter after chapter. Love his stories, but please...... Anyway love your work, "Paul". Keep it up. Hope to meet you again, when you come back to sunny Florida.
