How much did it cost you to get "published"? DUDE She's had two books published, too, and on the publisher's dime, I might add. If my maternal pride in her literary accomplishments had to depend on DUDE to hold them up, I'd be in a world of hurt. Fortunately, it doesn't. So I'm not.  tl Having read both books and proudly display them in my library, I'll say from a sisterly standpoint that Neak rocks!

That's a crappy attitude to take towards your mother!  tl Who says T&L isn't punny?

Now that the house with the bad septic is gone, she's got to look a lot harder and farther for all her "crappy" puns.  Bestrong, thanks, though I am far from the only author on here, and not even close to the most prolific. (The most that I know of is a beautiful lady that has published more than 9 books. Well, had published for her. And a couple more with publishing dates TBA. Wow!) Well, gotta go see why I hear the TV on during school time, even though it's educational. Math first, kiddoes!

How much did it cost you to get "published"? DUDE Dude, usually you are so silly and funny that it is hard to be cross with you, but that was just nasty. And if you say "whatever" instead of apologising wholeheartedly, you'll be sent to your room. I'm sorry...I couldn't resist...I won't do it again..DUDE

Sugar, I know you're already a woman of Spirit! The Holy Spirit, and just plain spirited living, both. Zelmo, I think we can safely rule out alcohol here.
