ODDS AND ENDS

Word of the day:
Ovoviviparous-adj. producing eggs that develop within the maternal body and hatch within or immediately after leaving the parent.

Why do I like this word? Because if you read Jaid Black's Trek Mi Q'an series. It's the PERFECT word.




Just finished a great read. It's posted on the OOTB so this isn't a surprise. I really did like it. I enjoyed the growth journey of their relationship. A good plot never hurts either.
It has a hint of similarity with Christine Feehan's Shadow Game and Mind Game books....but only a hint.

Have you read these and can you figure out what I'm talking about????






For those of you with Blogger accounts, have you noticed a disturbing trend called Comment Spam?
I was visiting an OOTB author as well as a new blogger who visited me. Both comment sections were hit with Spam. This disturbs me. So much that, thanks to Dee at the site for Shesawriter, I was able to employ a deterrant offered by Blogger.
FYI: Under Settings and Comments, you can choose YES for " Show word verification for comments". Since I HATE SPAM, I thought spreading the word about this tool would be a good thing. Yes , it means a little more work on the person who places a comment but I prefer to hear from people, from YOU , not an advertiser using a computer program.

ON A LIGHTER NOTE:


NO MAN OF MINE WILL EVER GETS HIS
HANDS ON THIS BABY!!

THIS IS ONE REMOTE THAT WOULD APPEAR
ON ANY MAN'S CHRISTMAS WISH LIST.
(I can see this featured on Redneck TV,
can you?)

PERSONALLY, I'D FLUSH IT DOWN THE TOILET!!


WHAT WOULD YOU DO????

TOO BAD THERE ISN'T ONE TO GET RID OF SPAMMERS!
Heh! *delete* with a smile.........


AngieW has a great idea about finding out the Top 100 songs of the year you were born. It's the second post down labelled:
Music of My Year. Check out her site!!! I had bunches of good stuff. Maybe I'll share my list tomorrow. Today's is getting just a tad longer than I want.
Thanks for stopping by!!!!

I Tried a Book Out of My Comfort Zone

Sometimes, reading out of my comfort zone is ... well, uncomfortable. The blurb of the book sounded rather interesting. The Fate of Mercy ...
