Recent photos of Brian Allred's kids. Such sweethearts!I've read four books since the beginning of June. How's your reading going? Did you know that all Americans have lost some of their reading skills due to lack of use? It's true. According to a 20-year study on American reading habits, the results show that we not only read less, we read with less ability as a result. This study included all age, race, and socio-econ groups. The only age group whose reading skills improved were 9-year-olds. I guess we can thank J.K. Rowling for that significant exception. If you need a suggestion for reading, check out my Shelfari.

Hope you enjoyed the Wicked Tinkers video. What's that? You didn't WATCH it? Well, stop reading now and click on the link. If you like Craig Ferguson (or anything Scottish), you'll enjoy watching this.
Back to my original premise: I took the plunge today and deleted 600 emails (many of them unread) from my GMail Inbox. Only 300 more to go. Hence the heading about "email purgatory" -- can't move forward till I settle up. Most of these are things I needed to unsubscribe from long ago.

I do books on Tape. Does that count? I have read "The Summons" by Grisham, and I finished "Pawn of Prophecy" by David Eddings.
Absolutely! Books on tape (well, CD actually, and sometimes even on iPhone) definitely count. The SL County Library system is probably my favorite part of living in SL County -- second only to my Children & Grandchildren!
