… you are not laughing because you had “the zap� vs “the hole in the head� LOL. HUGS
I still think the post-craniotomy joke of “
I need that like I need another hole in the head� is still hilarious …no matter how many times I read/hear it.

There must be some ole “zap� jokes out there with
you radiated folks. Tease LOL In the USA, here, they don’t offer you coffee and tea with “
one or two lumps� (just a to-go cup in this “
fast food nation�) … however next time around my European friends and family and they ask me “
One lump or two?� I am going to absolutely crack up … LOL

exquisite photography book that I am optimistic might be published here in the USA "if" he gets onto it …while he is visiting the Stanford experts (here in the “

type stores.
Do you work in an independent bookstore or one of the big giant corporate franchise ones?
Did you ever see You’ve Got Mail?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You've_Got_MailI personally am a big fan of children’s books – particularly ones that are beautifully illustrated. The folks in the Barnes and Nobles (aka FOX books) children’s section need to work on reading more children’s literature – as they just are not as in-the-know as the dear lady who had to close down her small independent bookstore in the little town closest to us. (My children cried when our local book store closed)
Oh dear (sock in my mouth) you aren’t a B & N employee are you? (tease grin
