Diet books everywhere - eek! I'm not going there anymore. I'm never going to read a book like The 5 Love Languages, but if someone could tell me what the five are, it'd be much appreciated (I like to know what I'm deficient in). Some fellow called Dan Brown has a new book out apparently, I'll wait until he really takes off before I give him a try. America the Beautiful makes me happy. It's good to know the UK is still ahead of trend on some things. We went through denial about our own demise more than fifty years ago - that's fresh my friend! And don't worry, we're still open to continuing the 'special relationship', even if it is out the back of a shared trailer as we watch China whizz by in a gold-plated hummer, shooting dirt up into our envious faces.
