A few things to babble on about before getting down to business.
I bought Michael Bublé's new album last week and I keep playing it whenever possible, especially the song "Everything", a song he co-wrote.
Oh, and I finally have AC in my car after a year! A year in Florida, I'll have you know. Anyway, all his happy now and not as near as expensive as originally estimated, always a bonus. : )
OK quote time. No one got last week's quote which comes from one of my all-time favorite novels: Ivanhoe. This time I've decided to go for a short story, one that most, if not all, of us have read at one time or another.
. . . he would have passed a pleasant life of it, in despite of the Devil and all his works, if his path had not been crossed by a being that causes more perplexity to mortal man than ghosts, goblins, and the whole race of witches put together, and that was--a woman.

In case you haven't seen this version, it's worth the rental even with some great liberties taken http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Ivanhoe/60030435?trkid=189530&strkid=588849945_0_0
