That's why I had to stop. I also had to put away jigsaw puzzles and take all
games off my computer. I never did give up Prodigy, which is what I had at the
time. I rationalized it because I mostly posted on a site for lawyers. I later
found out one of the ladies I o[osted the most with was right there in Texas
School of Law with me! We became great friends. In fact I called her a couple
weeks ago when they said they were hiring a new lawyer and she was going to
apply but had to go in the hospital and missed the deadline. Can you believe,
out of 17 that applied, there were only three they considered qualified? It
will be interesting to see who they choose; they were all three very different.
I wish I had gotten to sit in on the interviews.

*********************
I have so many "favorite" books......The book that I think I enjoyed reading
the most was a little known book by Thomas (Tom)
Tryon...........Lady.............It kept my interest and had an ending that was
so unexpected.............At the end of the book I realized everything was
there for me to see the ending, but, it was so woven into the story that I
missed it...........as has everyone else that I have talked to.............It
is not great literature like Lonesome Dove.........And I can't explain why I
liked it so much.............Writing this makes me want to read it
again..............It has a lot in common with "To Kill A Mocking Bird" which
is one of my favorites...........

I read "Lady" many years ago.....can't remember the details of it now, tho. I
don't know that anyone considers Lonesome Dove great literature. I just love
McMurtry's writing and he made the characters in Lonesome Dove very real to me.
I love The World According to Garp by John Irving, too.
