Chug, chug, chug.
That's the sound of my revision going...umm...chugging speed. I wish it was full speed, but you take what you're given when it comes to creative automation.
But barring another big printer blow-up, I'll be printing this weekend. And then Virtually His, the new and improved version, will be chugging its way to NYC. YAY. Then I can break open that bottle of wine in my fridge....
Meanwhile, I get news updates like this from my bookstuff subscription to torture myself:
"The mass-market edition of Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code surpassed one million units in sales, making it the first book in 2006 to reach that milestone. DVC sold 63,000 units last week and remains at No. 1 for the fourth consecutive week (with nine weeks spent at the top total)."
63000 units in a week.
Bah.
Okay, new mantra. Gennita Low sells 63000 units a week. Sounds so much better than Dan Brown. Just sayin'.
NEWS TO KEEP AN EYE ON:

Remember, I'm uber-spy. I'm cynical. Nothing stays free forever. There are powers who always, ALWAYS want to control the masses. And make money while doing it.
Congress has been on-and-off kicking the legislate-the-internet ball back and forth the past decade. Remember that there are powerful lobbyists paid by Communication Companies who want to limit "free" internet. Do you remember the fracas about charging for email, like the post office? It's baaaaack. With more hidden agenda than you can say COvert Subversive Command Center.
Keep an eye on it, dear spylets. We need to always keep each other abreast about this Intel.
Boy, I sure sound ominous this morning. How about a funny pic to lighten things up? 
Okay, that's no laughing matter either. Did you know shingle prices have tripled since a year ago? No?
Bear with me while I learn. The first button likes the POST. The second button likes the BLOG site. Please help me by "liking" me. Thanks!

Hi Uber-spy,
I wanted to send along my deepest apologies for getting the name of one of your books wrong. Mea culpa. I have no excuse, except to say I have ocular prebyteria.(my eyesight is shot)I am also too vain to wear my specs when I need to. I realize my error was akin to referring to someone elses children by the wrong names.I meant to say SLEEPING WITH THE AGENT.Please forgive me:)
I am pleased to report I have started on THE HUNTER.So far so interesting.
Do not get down about Dan Brown and his supposed windfall.It is an embarrassment of riches. He is all about digging through other author's work.
you are the genuine article!
Being an original is always better than being
an asshat!

' I accept myself just the way I am'(smiling).
Hi Shan,
Not a problem with the title confuzzlement ;-). I call that title Sleeping Dot, Dot, Dot, myself.
As for your wise mantra, I wish I have your personal serenity ;-). I'm always trying to come up with stuff like: "I will be better and wiser!" or "I will have no pimples!" or "I will only be allowed to eat icecream if I complete ten pages!" Shallow, I know.... ;-P
