There are far more people who feel they excel at kissing than really do.Now we have a test to know whether you are a good kisser? <a href="http://www.ebayoyo.com/message_632.html">Start the test.</a> </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22728#post-470805 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 07:29:03 +0000 JoanfromNewJersey 470805@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I do think it's possible for this position to exist (I found myself wanting this job!), especially in a small town. However, in the age of tech, laws, and fed micro-managing, it's probably been phased out and most of it is automated. Someone still has to put the mail into residents' boxes, though, and surely people still read postcards! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22643#post-470800 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 07:23:48 +0000 JoanfromNewJersey 470800@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I thought Mim's character was a riot! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22642#post-470797 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 07:22:03 +0000 JoanfromNewJersey 470797@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Leela doesn't have a sib to talk to, but she talks to herself when she goes into a room where she's alone.<br /> Shaddo and Jiggs loved me, but I wondered if they spent their lives plotting my demise! They communicated with each other often, as CTR mentioned, mostly in body language. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22728#post-467508 Sat, 07 Nov 2009 15:54:40 +0000 Cat talk rules 467508@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I had to think about this one for a while. It is possible for someone like her to exist and there are people who do--some older people for instance. I would buy my aunt an answering machine if I thought she'd use it. People have a hard time reaching her and I hear about it. LOL I try to have a simple life but I love my computer and microwave and camera. I don't have a lot of high tech stuff but I like them so I think a young person would have to be totally anti tech in today's world to live like that. Technology makes life easier in a lot of ways. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/14506/page/2#post-467506 Sat, 07 Nov 2009 15:48:32 +0000 Cat talk rules 467506@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I think I've read the Christmas Thief but not Santa Cruise. I will have to check--if I like a book I never mind rereading either. I'll be looking forward to Dashing through the Snow. :D </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/14506/page/2#post-467498 Sat, 07 Nov 2009 13:21:56 +0000 SoxsMom 467498@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>There is a new one from them due out this month. Dashing Through the Snow, I am looking forward to that! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/14506/page/2#post-467496 Sat, 07 Nov 2009 13:11:28 +0000 Cat talk rules 467496@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>That sounds like a good idea to me, SM. They are good writers and they are usually quick reads (maybe because I can't put them down LOL) </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/14506/page/2#post-467465 Sat, 07 Nov 2009 09:45:59 +0000 SoxsMom 467465@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>What about Santa Cruise or The Christmas Thief by Mary Higgins Clark and Carol Higgins Clark. They are mysteries with a holiday theme. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/14506/page/2#post-467460 Sat, 07 Nov 2009 09:35:12 +0000 Cat talk rules 467460@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Do we have a book for December? I have totally enjoyed expanding my reading tastes. I usually settle in with a mystery or stick with writers I know I like. Even if we don't do a book for December lets keep this up next year. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22642#post-467399 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 18:40:52 +0000 SoxsMom 467399@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Well Deuter and Teaser have the nicknames of Pinky and The Brain--we know that Teaser is plotting to take over the world! Deuter is all too happy to help! Especially if it involves the downfall of Sherlock! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22728#post-467396 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 18:34:34 +0000 JoanfromNewJersey 467396@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Alicia, can I re-open this discussion when I read the book? This one got by me, but I ordered it and it looks like a good read. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22643#post-467389 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 18:11:39 +0000 Alicia 467389@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Not to spoil anything but I personally like the development of Boom Boom's character over the series. I truly think she could be a great person if it wasn't for stereo-typing. I would like to make sure I have a Cynthia Cooper type on my side when ever trouble hits. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22644#post-467388 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 18:08:33 +0000 Alicia 467388@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>If this town exists I would love to live there. I hope someday to live where neighbors actually care about each other and look out for trouble. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22642#post-467387 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 18:07:24 +0000 Alicia 467387@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I think my babies are always trying to get me to check something out but there are times I think all they are trying to get is an "I made you look" credit...lol</p> <p>I know my 6 talk to each other all the time it just isn't out load...none of the five kittens meow anymore... </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22728#post-467386 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 18:05:30 +0000 Alicia 467386@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Well, at least it will be the last I come up with but would love to hear what you might think...can you see yourself at Harry? In this time of computers and high-tech gadgets, she hand sort the mail and does things the old fashion way...is it even possible for someone like her exist? </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/14506/page/2#post-467327 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 12:33:53 +0000 Karenopa 467327@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Thanks Linda..my library does order books from the other local libraries however the last time I attempted to get one..they didn't tell me it was also on hold for someone else and I had to return it before I was finished with it. I promise I won't give up though. =( </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/14506/page/2#post-467318 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 12:24:48 +0000 linda 467318@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Karenopa, my parents have a small library, but my Dad has discovered that you can order books from other libraries in the state and have them sent to your local library. He does it thru the library website now. You might check to see it Oregon has the same thing :) </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/14506/page/2#post-467315 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 12:07:47 +0000 JoanfromNewJersey 467315@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I just ordered the last 2 books - I'm running late. I've decided to read the Harry Potter series; my Mom has them. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/14506/page/2#post-467311 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 12:00:21 +0000 Karenopa 467311@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I've not yet gotten my hands on a book chosen for TDK Book Club because of my very small library in a very small town but remain hopeful. Has a book been chosen for Nov. &amp;/or Dec.? It's that time of year for snuggling in a blanket with hot cocoa and a good book! =D </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22642#post-467173 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 23:48:53 +0000 rainingwolf 6/15 467173@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I am not really in the Book Club, but I have read all of Rita Mae Brown's Mrs. Murphy books. I love them! And yes, I definitely can imagine the cats having conversations. I think they do it all the time! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22642#post-467095 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 19:01:27 +0000 SoxsMom 467095@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I thought I was losing my mind--I AM!! I read the wrong book! I read Stewart O'Nan's. I am such an idiot I would have liked Rita Mae Brown better. I read 2 of them in the past year and love the cat! I am truly an idiot! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22644#post-467093 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 18:53:03 +0000 Cat talk rules 467093@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I don't know about southern but I did think if captured the flavor of small towns. I grew up in a western small town and I could see a resemblance. I think some characters were probably stereotyped but it doesn't matter in this genre. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22643#post-467092 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 18:50:14 +0000 Cat talk rules 467092@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Pewter, I think because she made me think of my Tessie who was also a big gray cat who liked to be in the middle of everything </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22642#post-467091 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 18:48:49 +0000 Cat talk rules 467091@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Yes I can picture all of them doing so. I know that mine converse with each other--more so in body language than in meows when the cats talk to each other. I know when they are talking about me from the way they look at me. LOL </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22615#post-467085 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 18:42:25 +0000 SoxsMom 467085@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I don't think that Alicia post the questions yet. She will! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22615#post-467083 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 18:39:08 +0000 Cat talk rules 467083@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I read it but didn't catch any of the threads. Good book--a fun read </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22644#post-466435 Tue, 03 Nov 2009 19:21:47 +0000 Alicia 466435@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>With all the back ground put in place for this book does it sound like a typical southern small town (obviously without the murders) or do you think it is all just a little "too simple"? </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22643#post-466431 Tue, 03 Nov 2009 19:15:56 +0000 Alicia 466431@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>With such a colorful cast of characters who do you find the most intriguing? </p>
