Book cover via Amazon FYI, for those interested in these sorts of things: Women on the Web, an online women’s magazine, is giving away a beach bag containing an autographed copy of Jane Green’s The Beach House, Lancaster sunscreen products and a custom beach towel to five lucky readers. addthis_url = ‘http%3A%2F%2Fcollectedmiscellany.com%2F2008%2F09%2Ffree-stuff%2F’; addthis_title = [...]

I hope this means more books available for Kindle and available on the publication date. I seem to have looked at a few books who were not available on the Kindle until after the hardback had been released. Might have something to do with the publisher’s profit on each item. I would love to see digital [...]
Lamplighter (Monster Blood Tattoo, Book 2) by D.M. Cornish Thu, 04 Sep 2008 16:00:32
Book cover via Amazon Way back in May when I saw that the second book in the Monster Blood Tattoo series by D.M. Cornish, the sequel to Foundling, was being released I was excited. But I will admit that I was a little nervous when I saw that Lamplighter was such a large tome (over 700 [...]

Obama's con

Great Blogger Headlines Sun, 07 Sep 2008 01:30:17
Fisking Obama on his ridiculous attacks on Sarah Palin is like shooting fish in a barrel, but I wanted to draw your attention to two of my favorite responses. Ace has a long but effective title to his post: Extremely Confused Would-Be Commander-in-Chief Launches “Harshest Attack Yet” on Woman Who’s Not Technically Even His Opponent Ace links to [...]
Obama’s false bravado on change Sun, 07 Sep 2008 00:54:00
Obama has clearly decided to run a campaign against President Bush. And he has also lost any sense of shame. He is constantly accusing his opponents of things that apply equally, or even more so, to himself. Take today: “Don’t be fooled,” a particularly punchy Obama told a crowd this morning at a town hall meeting [...]
Obama continues to smear opponents Sat, 06 Sep 2008 19:02:40
Obama goes back to the “they will try to scare you” complaint: “I know that I’m not your typical presidential candidate,” Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., told executives and employees of the Schott glass company Friday afternoon, “and I just want to be honest with you. I know that.” “And I know that the temptation is to say, [...]

Lakers Get Lucky

Filed Under Sports: NBA

I don’t care what Tony Pierce or Ken Layne or anyone else says - the Lakers got lucky. Shaq was hot (he was even making his free throws!) and Kobe was healthy and they barely won in LA. The refs continued to call an almost mind boggling game. It was nearly impossible to tell what was a foul and what wasn’t. Kobe ran over Mike Biby and gave him a bloody nose and the ref just stands there. There were any number of ghost fouls at crucial points. I think Sacremento knows they can beat LA. They will have the Lakers at Arco and I predict here and now that the Lakers lose.

Waddaya mean, the ref stood there when Kobe um, mugged Bibby and did nothing. He did something very important! You can see him clearly snap his forearm from the elbow down in a 1-2-3 sort of gesture.

Clearly, he was counting Bibby out…

Anyway, what the host said about the refs. They make it impossible to take the NBA seriously. It could be such a great sport if there were any logic to their conduct.

Hey now! Go easy on the Lakers!

I am preparing a database of Laker’s stats for the end of the season. They are as fasinating as they are informative. Are you listening David? You should be nervious when this hits the airwaves.
