Thanks for reading my "stuff". You're a literary beacon and I admire your community service.<br /><br />Jessica,<br />You're welcome, and well deserving.<br /><br />Theresa,<br />Thank you so much. <br /><br />Pet,<br />I do enjoy your blog. It's different, with fresh commentary and varied experiences, from which I can learn much. You have a jewels box?? Wow. Thank you! I was proud of "Cheated". I did not see that editorial, but now I'm going to read it. Thank you again.<br /><br />Tricia,<br />Right, exactly. Atwood's writing stays with you.

I'm really glad that you like it. I remember, vividly, some of the posts in your blog, like the one called "Cheated", about simple life and art and Flaubert and so. You probably didn't notice it, but I even went to mention it in my One Year "Editorial" :-)<br />http://pencilandbox.blogspot.com/2011/09/one-year-of-pencil-and-box.html<br />And I've got some others of your Posts kept in my "jewels" box too!Pethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04051290783539970956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6858983085428585414.post-79936659089657811302011-11-21T02:35:44.958-08:002011-11-21T02:35:44.958-08:00Congratulations on the award.

Perfect description. <br /><br />Yes, I'd heard about the pepper spray and also the rubber bullets that injured an innocent bystander. I have family in Oakland with firsthand accounts.

And of course the books.. <br />But most of all the observations about patriotic marketing… I have had the same thoughts. And as for the pulling of hair, lets add the cruel act of pepper spraying defenseless protesters sitting in the street. <br />I’ll be back again.Anthony Ducehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17476865809734682418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6858983085428585414.post-75920047562663299682011-11-20T16:32:35.296-08:002011-11-20T16:32:35.296-08:00Wow, thank you! :)Wow, thank you! :)Zevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02023493184187378223noreply@blogger.com
