Little Giant of Aberdeen County


My wife who blogs regularly on redhoteyebrows.blogspot.com is always coming up with great reviews of books that I have never heard of, or if I saw it on the shelf on the library I would continue my b-line to the fiction sci-fi/fantasy section. One of these books I would have passed by is called, "The Little Giant of Aberdeen County." Luckily I have someone who finds these amazing books, and since I have a lot of time on my hands, I thought I would give it a glance. After 10 pages, I was hooked. This book reminds me of "A Girl Named Zippy" except with a little more magic wrapped in. Truly is a girl who grows up in a small town and although having pretty much everything go wrong in her life, she perseveres and triumphs in her own small way.

Check out redhoteyebrows for a more insightful review, or check it out from your local library and give it a go. Good book!

The hazards of getting dressed in the dark.

I caved this weekend. And left the world of prepaid cell phones. One of the biggest reasons was to be able to talk to family without having everyone in the land of cubicles listen into my calls.

I also wanted to be able to Blog a little more, so here goes.

Today I noticed that I smelled extra nice as I ate my muffin at work my yes tree soap given me by my sister seemed extra strong. I didn't think much more of it until I scratched my chin and found a large glob of soap on my chin. Luckily I didn't have any interaction before discovering my Social faux pas. And that little incident reminded me ofone of my other social blunders. There is not any fun story to go along with this one. It is a little ironic that I was told about my shirt being inside out by a guy with little social skills.

Savants

I remember when I was a kid I used to watch 60 minutes at my Grandma's house every Sunday. I ran across this link, and enjoyed a few video clips on some savants and the amazing gifts they have. Probably my favorite clip was about Derek, who played a song called San Jose as if Mozart wrote it.
