haha! Angie, I had to laugh at how often we agreed on these works! So funny! Your reviews are great.
I'm so glad that you and I can disagree on so many things (like Dr. Strangelove which you, Dan and Kris love and made me watch!) and yet still be the best of friends. I love that about us!
One of these days I'll actually get around to reading the copy of One Hundred Years of Solitude you gave me. I do dearly love The Pop-up Book of Nightmares you gave me (you give the best gifts, you know).
"The Original Large Painting of a Rainy City I got at the D.I. -Excellent" I agree 100%!!! It ROCKS! Remember when you and Jennie got all mad at me when I said it was creepy?! I said it was creepy in a GOOD WAY! I love that painting! lol
