Okay, when your sister sends you a note saying your blog is dated, it's time to blog. Of course, when your sister sends you a note TWO WEEKS ago saying your blog is dated, it's WAAAAAAAAAAAAY past time to blog.
I don't mind responding to other blogs, which is why I've been semi-active over at Seekerville (http://seekerville.blogspot.com/). In fact, I actually won a prize this week because I responded enough to win the runner-up prize: an autographed copy of Julie Lessman's A PASSION MOST PURE.
A few days after Julie's book came out, I bought it. My enthusiasm dampened a tad when I saw the setting date: 1913 Boston and Ireland. I'm not really a turn-of-the-century reader, but I'm sooooo glad I gave the story a chance. This book is the first inspirational I've read where the physical attraction is realistically portrayed.
Anyhoo, Julie's book is great. She takes the concept of multiple POVs and uses it to tell a unique story. In fact, no other book with so man POVs used well comes to mind.
I pray that this book will tear up the best-seller lists so publishers will see that inspirational readers can handle realistic sexual tension in their romances as well as imperfect characters.

George Carlin's Solution to Save Gasoline
Bush wants us to cut the amount of gas we use..... The best way to stop using so much gas is to deport 11 million illegal immigrants!
That would be 11 million less people using our gas, and the price of gas would come down.
Bring our troops home from Iraq to guard the Border. When they catch an illegal immigrant crossing the border, hand him a canteen, rifle and some ammo and ship him to Iraq. Tell him if he wants to come to America then he must serve a tour in the military, and give him a soldier's pay while he's there and tax him on it. After his tour, he will be allowed to become a citizen since he defended this country. He will also be registered to be taxed and be a legal patriot.
This option will probably deter illegal immigration and provide a solution for the troops in Iraq and the aliens trying to make a better life for themselves.
If they refuse to serve, ship them to Iraq anyway, without the canteen, rifle or ammo.
Problem solved.
