Dear Diane, you always manage to crack me up! Just trying to sneak in some blog reading between laundry and mail sorting (2 weeks’ worth can be a LOT of mail), and I’m glad I came here. The pie charts really made me laugh. ;)

I was so sad to see Federer lose. I much prefer him over Nadal because he doesn’t do the loud grunts. I stopped watching tennis (women’s anyway) for years because I couldn’t stand Monica Seles’ screams. And also, Federer is so darned good looking *grin* and seems like such a gracious and sweet guy overall, not just in losing.

Have a great weekend :-0

Sue – I have been busy….in the nicest way!
#2 son is desperate to see Wall.e, we are going to see it on Monday when he gets back from a rugby trip. I just hope it’s as good as he is expecting it to be!

You’ve been busy, busy busy! I went through and looked at your previous posts. It sounds as though your having a great summer.

Wall-E was cute! ;-)

DP – being quoted on a prestigious blog like this? Of course it’s good :-D

Lili – well, thanks for that! I have read a couple of his books and must confess, as an avid reader with more than two neurons, I rather enjoyed them! However, I am always open to suggestions and will definitely check out your recommendations! :-)

burntmaze – it was fabulous! I wanted it to end in a draw as it didn’t seem fair that either should win, they both played so well, but on the day, I suppose Nadal just edged it. Quite stunning….

You have a Paulo Coelho’s blog link here
Did you know Paulo Coelho is probably the WORST Brazilian writer? He really sells lots of books and he is the most famous Brazilian writer around the world, but…

But all the critics HATE HIM.
And 90% of people who has more than two neurons too.

THE GREAT BRAZILIAN WRITERS:
Machado de Assis – No Brazilian writer is more fascinating than Machado de Assis (The Posthumous Memoirs of Bras Cubas, also known in English as Epitaph for a Small Winner; Quincas Borba, also known in English as Philosopher or Dog?)
Joao Guimaraes Rosa (The Devil to Pay in the Backlands)
