@gdon39 I've always loved that book.

@PhoenixPhail I am just starting it again for the 10th time maybe. I’m waiting on a rainy Sunday morning.

@gdon39 Yeah, it's a great rainy-day book.

@Gusman I salute you! My mom tried to hit me with a big hair brush & when she swung at me I caught her throwing arm with my left hand & took the hair brush out of her hand & threw it out a kitchen window (it was closed so I broke it) & told her that if she ever raised a hand against me she'd go out the window instead of a hair brush. Never happened again. Btw I didn't pay for the window.

@DropTopDig Some people should never be parents. Sadism has no place in the raising of children.

@Gusman She wasn't a bad mother, but she had a temper. So did my dad. I inherited both of their tempers. To give you an example, a DH in high school picked a fight with me. He was 2x my size, but its not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog, he broke my nose and I broke 6 of his ribs. Ended his basketball career in high school.
