I picked up a 1934 copy of Remembrance of Things Past this past weekend at a used book sale. I just finished Swann's Way and enjoyed it immensely. I tried a few Proust readings in college and just didn't have the patience for it. Perhaps it is maturity or having more time on my hands that...

Ah, just put the kindle above the steering wheel as you drive, easy solution. Just kidding!-I don't get sick at all as a passenger-reader. :D

Will have to watch to see if this comes around my neck of the woods-good post!

Dear over the pond friends, Never, never, ever...click on a news story with the title of "Anthony Weiner." Your friend, SFG

I utilize OS X v. 10.6.8 I have no idea what that means, other than that I'm an Apple user.o_O

Any "stay-cation" Ditto........
