I alternate between laughing and being horrified. <BR/><BR/>bookfool - exactly, there was one with a guy standing over a shredder on a ledge, and one the one hanc, I was laughing because I knew what was going to happen, but then I think that it happened to a real person and I stop. <BR/>I didn't notice any cell phone stories.

I haven't yet picked up any of the books, but I'm sure I'd enjoy them too.Ana S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16092495983972185943noreply@blogger.com
