    I'm in Hawaii and that would make the discussion at 5am my time. If the next one is in the afternoon, I'll join in.

    What are you reading?  Buy books from local stores.  They need your business more than Amazon.

    Now Reading:  Little Women by Louisa May Alcott.  Just because.

    Last Movie:   Fallen Angel.  No it is not religious.  Action film of a secret service agent falsely accused of trying to assinate the president.  Very violent and predictable so it's easy to relax and just watch.

    Nan
        I understand how to get to the meeting, but not what you're reading or what the supposed discussion is about.  Is this the in only discussion or do you want new people?
