[lace-chat] Secret pal thanks2
I'm sending this again through another e-mailer in case the first message went astray, if not, please bear with: This is a bit late, but on Friday I received a very nice package from my Secret Pal. There was a beautiful bobbin with a matching turned wooden "bead" for the spangle, a Monet note pad and some very pretty note cards, a misty green cover cloth and a nice purple and white spiral soap. With much appreciation, I had just been sent home from work because our podiatrist operated on my toe, so was feeling poorly and you brightened my day (and weekend) considerably!!!

[lace-chat] Rednex Redux
I sent the redneck story (FBI chops redneck's wood to find marijuana stash) to my girlfriend and here's the way she heard it: Subject: THE GOOD SON An old man lived alone in Idaho. He wanted to spade his potato garden, but it was very hard work. His only son, Bubba, who had always helped him, was in prison for armed robbery. The old man wrote a letter to his son and mentioned his predicament "Dear Bubba, I'm feeling pretty low because it looks like I won't be able to plant my potato garden this year. I've gotten too old to be digging up a garden plot. If you were here, my troubles would be over. I know you would dig the plot for me. Love, Dad" A few days later the old man received a letter from his son: "Dear Dad, For HEAVEN'S SAKE DAD, don't dig up the GARDEN! That's where I buried the GUNS and the MONEY! Love, Bubba." At 4:00 a.m. the next morning, a dozen FBI agents and local police officers showed up and dug up the entire area. After finding nothing, they apologized to the old man and left. That same afternoon the old man received another letter from his son: "Dear Dad, Go ahead and plant the potatoes now. It's the best I could do under the circumstances. Love, Bubba."

[lace-chat] Re:the Big Read - Top 21
Thanks for the info on the Big Read vote. I logged on and cast my vote for Jane Eyre. It was interesting that two of the Bronte sisters had books in the top 21. Even though critics acclaim Wuthering Heights as the better book, my money and heart has always been with "plain Jane Eyre." I even have my favorite film version of it: the one from 1983 with Timothy Dalton as Mr. Rochester and Zelah Clarke as Jane. For my money, Timothy was my second favorite all-time Bond (no one can top Connery). He brought a passion and more important DANGER to the role that I just don't see in Pierce Brosnan (though he is better than Roger Moore). I think that Dalton, like Connery, did not suffer from television type-casting the way Moore and Brosnan have. I also find it interesting some of the "American" novels that have made the top list, such as "Catch 22", "Catcher in the Rye", "To Kill a Mockingbird", "Little Women" and "Gone With the Wind."
