Also, if you want to read about what it's like to live in other countries, talesmag.com has a place where people (mostly embassy workers) fill in answers about the country they're in. It's interesting if you have nothing to do (ha ha) on a rainy day and you're curious about a country!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36746999.post-4807585892831197002009-02-13T20:40:00.000-02:002009-02-13T20:40:00.000-02:00Thanks for the links!

Though I have to limit my reading on the internet, due to the lighting that is bothering my eyes since I suffer from scotopic sensitivity.I could never own a blog, but I visit because I have learned to type and read quickly, logging on for just minutes at a time.<BR/><BR/>I also think that many tendon, nerve,and muscle disorders are worsened by sitting at a computer.<BR/><BR/>Hope you are over your rash.<BR/>Cheers dear<BR/>your blog is great, reallyfirepighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158275219887987252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36746999.post-65672780659992385692009-02-13T19:15:00.000-02:002009-02-13T19:15:00.000-02:00Brenda dear,For sure, I like better to have a book...Brenda dear,<BR/>For sure, I like better to have a book in my hands. But lately they are too expensive here (especially in english!). So, this works for me.<BR/><BR/>Usually I save them in Word format and use the 'reading layout', which seems like an open book on the screen. In this way you don't have to move up and down to read. Just flip the pages as you progress.<BR/><BR/>I have another link:<BR/>http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page<BR/>(Gutenberg project)<BR/>Haven't downloaded anything yet from this site, but it has many titles!Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13409833836497330449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36746999.post-48786093698020978902009-02-13T18:31:00.000-02:002009-02-13T18:31:00.000-02:00Brenda, I have not used it yet but my friend, Liz,...Brenda, I have not used it yet but my friend, Liz, has.Rita Locahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09961929692808138092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36746999.post-78654527412044060192009-02-13T18:17:00.000-02:002009-02-13T18:17:00.000-02:00Yes I believe I will have games you can come and w...Yes I believe I will have games you can come and watch! :DRinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06911079294332229103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36746999.post-16274403463939538392009-02-13T16:47:00.000-02:002009-02-13T16:47:00.000-02:00I've been downloading books from a few sites, some...I've been downloading books from a few sites, some to listen to on my MP3 player, others to read either on the MP3 or on my phone. It's fairly convenient considering how much time I have to kill standing in lines, at times! I also use http://www.txt2day.com/ a lot, to send free text messages to the cell phones of my people back home.Christiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16007668779683965884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36746999.post-80900870026905417592009-02-13T16:45:00.000-02:002009-02-13T16:45:00.000-02:00Your blog looks great!
