It's been quite a few years since I've read Bradbury, but Fahrenheit 451 was always one of my favorites (the book as well as the movie). I have recently introduced my oldest grandson to Bradbury, and he also liked Fahrenheit 451. Actually he and I have similar tastes in books and TV. We both love Harry Potter, Star Trek, Doctor Who, Torchwood, and a few others...it's nice because we are able to talk about them together.

And even though we live in the US, we both prefer the UK editions of Harry Potter. 

I love to read and have quite a personal library of books that I've collected over the years. I love science fiction/fantasy, romance, suspense/mystery. I'll read anything from any genre that sounds like it might be interesting, and some of those have become my favorites over the years.

Just to name a few in my collection...

I'll read anything by Marion Zimmer Bradley and Ann McCaffrey (unfortunately both authors have passed away, Bradley in 1999 and McCaffrey in 2011, so no new books forthcoming anymore)
Bernard Cornwell's "Sharpe" series about the Napoleonic Wars
Kate Atkinson's "Case Histories"
All of the Harry Potter books (UK editions)
Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" series (have added "The Hobbit" to my stack of books to read)
Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451 and The Martian Chronicles
Frank Herbert's "Dune" Series

And lots more too numerous to name.

Ahh! You are teasing me! You have to put it like a hangman thing first. You know like the one you solved so people ask if a letter is in it. You can use the quote you have chosen but I think you had better choose another one. Lol.

Well, this is a nice game! Wait Ima, I think I know! The solution for your riddle is:

Am I right? Am I right?   

LOL...Well Davina, now I am really embarrassed...I got so flustered I forgot which game I was in!   

And yes, Mattlocked, you are absolutely correct! 


Let me see if I can come up with another one...I might just get it right this time! 

Okay, here we go...

Yes.  There are 2 ways you can do this,  depending upon the browser you are using.   If  it's internet explorer,  just highlight what you want to print,  and right click your mouse and hit print.   Make sure the SELECTION circle is checked.  then  print in the normal manner. 

Other browswers  such as chrome  don't have this.   What you do then,  is  highlite what yu wanna print,  open  a word doc folder,  and copy  and paste  it there.  THEN  print it  in the normal  way.   Hope this helps you.

Thanks, sherlockskitty...worked perfectly!

It means it won't let you embedden it. I never really understand why.

I thought that might be it...oh well, now I know how to do it for next time though! Thanks again... 

Okay, I'm going to try this again. These are the links to the videos I mentioned in a previous post about songs that reminded me of the relationship between Sherlock and John...hope you enjoy them.

Yay, it worked! Thanks, Davina, for telling me how to do this... 

For some reason I can only post the links for the first 2 videos, it won't let me post the actual videos, but I was able to get the actual video to post for the last one.

I would love to have a hard copy of this list. Is there a way to print this one, or does anyone know of a link I could go to to get a print copy?
