Hah!!!!

Johnna, not only are you an enabler, you're a pusher,
worse than Timothy Leary and that crew. Not only do we
suffer the addiction, but you're going out of your way
to help us find the dr... er, I mean, "book" of our
choice! And you can't be satisfied just encouraging
one fix, or two, no, not you!!!!

You go out of your way to encourage us to devastate
whole forests, of both pulp for books, and boards for
bookshelves! Think of the ecological devastation!

And our families. Look at what all these books are
doing to our families! Instead of having a convenient
little box in the living room, where family members
can interact among themselves, fighting over the
channels, no, you want us to quietly sit in corners
and read, and worse, discuss what we read!!!!!

Have you ever tried to have a disacussion with a 10
year old? Let them discuss things with other 10 year
olds, and leave the house and raise hell someplace
else. Teaching them logical thought might actually
make them competent to do something besides watch
MTV!!! Oh, the horror! Oh, the expense!!!

Anyone wanna join the Reading Anonymouse 12 step
program?

Phlip, deep under the Rock, with a good book, and a
new batch of chocolatl chip cookies.....

And never a rider who cain't be throwed....
