#263 You aren't missing anything, you know, haha. Sorry. Your post was not there when I started mine. Obviously, I played on the previous post. This sometimes happens because my server is incredibly slow. That's one reason I look back at my post and sometimes delete it. Then I stop trying, because it's too slow and too frustrating. I don't know why I did not see this, maybe I was in a hurry, since my allotted time for the month might cut me off line at any time now. I'll try to think of another book, unless someone else already has posted one.
