Kate says: >oh no :). another book thread. >i just finished john irving's "a prayer for owen meany" for the fifth time Irving in general bears repeat reading. I've been plowing through the compleat works of Tom Robbins; just finished Still Life With Woodpecker. I flirt with mysteries as well; Celia Dale's work is a notch above the usual calibre. Annie Proulx' "Shipping News" awaits me (I've been staring at it for upward of four years, so it's about time I cracked it open.) I've also been occupied with some nonfiction, mainly psych-related. And I've got a big list awaiting my next Borders run, including Michael Ondaatje, David Simon, and Gabriel Garcia Marques :). - -- Lori, a bookworm in spurts ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 29 May 1999 12:13:11 -0500 From: ksucy@nospam.eznet.net (Shilfiell Nels Rada) Subject: Re: Whats Everyone Reading? In article <374FF99B.30AB0FF@abs.net>, David G Garcia wrote: > It takes you a whole summer to read a book?!?!?!?!? *boggle* ;-) LOL, my thoughts exactly...I was just about to suggest David Foster Wallace's "Infinite Jest" because if there's ever been a book that would REQUIRE an entire season to read, it might be that one. Allow two weeks for the footnotes alone. Anyway, two great recommendations I've gotten from a certain band member: "Angela's Ashes" by Frank, I think, McCort, and the works of Mordechai Richler. I haven't been able to find the exact Richler book mentioned, but I've been plowing through his fiction and enjoying it immensely. The two books I've picked up on my own and would recommend to anyone are "In the Memory of the Forest" by Charles T. Powers and "The God of Small Things" by Arundhati (sp?) Roy. And when all else fails, read Terry Pratchett. - -kimberly/shilfiell ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 29 May 1999 13:27:33 -0300 From: Page1 Subject: location of fans?

See information about Free Credit Application Below! My Multi-Million Dollar Publishing Company ONLY $149 Free Pre-Approved Merchant Account Application with Order!! To Start Your Business Out Right!! If you ever wanted "the easy way out" to make a lot of money with a business of your own.... Here is the EASIEST WAY TO START! I'm writing this letter to let you in on something that'll blow you away. What I'm about to present is something I've never done before...something that I'll never do again.... So PAY ATTENTION! For the past few years...I've have been running ads in newspapers & magazines, by direct mail, and throughout the internet. These ads were always small and very cheap... On these ads, we have been selling little manuals. These manuals have sold for anywhere between $10 to $99 each. We always ran different ads for each manual we were selling. I like selling information because NOBODY can put a price on it...ESPECIALLY when it is your own...The Sky is the Limit! Plus it is very cheap to reproduce How-To manuals. It costs between 40 cents and $3 to print the entire print manuals and around 35 cents to copy the manuals on disk. AND you can sell them for up to $99 each. That is one hell of a markup! These manuals tell you how to get a car with no money down and no credit...another one tells you how to avoid taxes by depositing income offshore...now you may not be interested in saving money by going offshore...but believe me....there are MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WHO DO...and they are willing to pay me to teach them!!! Well this is where the unbelievable offer comes in...I hope you are sitting down for this one...because this is a once in a lifetime chance for you. I do not know of an easier way to become financially independent...In fact THERE IS NO EASIER WAY!!! The next few paragraphs will reveal everything to you. I am willing to sell you my entire informational product line with FULL REPRINT RIGHTS and complete step-by-step instructions on how to start your mail order information business with very little money. Remember, these are PROVEN WINNERS. If you are stumped on something to sell or if you are having trouble writing a good ad, I have also included an entire book on disk to help you produce KILLER ads! This entire package which I call a Publishing Company in a Box will come on 1 CD containing over 2000 'Hot-Selling' Books, Reports And Manuals ready to print and sell, Sell, SELL! It also will come with a signed letter giving YOU FULL REPRINT RIGHTS allowing you to sell them for as much as you want and however you want. You Can even sell the entire kit to someone else to resale on their own! You also receive copies of KILLER ads which can fill your mailbox with cash! I am not even going to ask you for any of the money either... What you make is yours to keep . In fact...you get to make a ton of money on these manuals for as long as you wish...and you will never have to pay me another red cent in royalties! I am even going to print out and prepare our #1 selling report which contains the secrets of starting and operating your own million dollar mail order business on a shoestring budget so that you will be able to take it down to your local copy shop and be ready to sell it the same day you have received it. Watch out though - one individual is making $30,000 a month on this report alone! (Why - Because you can also include a special report On How to Write Order Pulling Ads that practically force people to whip out their checkbooks and order!) Note: THIS REPORT IS INCLUDED! All I ask for is...$149 and I will include FREE Priority Mail Shipping! Yes, I said $149. There are no zeros missing. Plus if you order before June 4th, 1999 I will include 4 extra special bonuses... Bonus #1 - "Search Engine Magic" on disk. This report will shoot your web site up to the top of the search engine listings. Other web advertisers are selling this manual for $99 by itself - But I will give it to you for FREE with this package. Bonus #2 - The report "How to Make at least $1,600 a week online...Starting Now!" which is taking the internet by storm will be included absolutely FREE! Bonus #3 - I will include special details about a secret source for creating Your own direct mail leads and how you can get your own mail order business up and running for just a few bucks! Bonus #4 - I also will include a pre-approved application for a merchant account for your business benefit. Taking credit cards will increase your business up to 100%. The normal $195 application fee will be waved with this pre-approved application. But there is one drawback... I am sending this ad to 10,000 other people...and I will only allow 50 kits to be sold. It wouldn't make much sense if I sold this kit to 1,000 or 2,000 people...The market would be saturated with these same manuals... and I don't want to do that. To make sure that the people in this offer get the same results I have...ONLY 50 people can have it for $149.00! Chances are, I will get all 50 within a week's time. So if this is something you are interested in...RUSH me a check or money order for $149.00 TODAY to insure your future business. But, even if you decide to pass this up...Don't sweat it. It's not like I am going to be mad or anything like that. I know I will get my 50 order limit really fast. And anyone who gets their check into me late... I will simply send it back. For only $149.00, I am going to let you have the easiest money you will ever make. The manuals are written, the ads are presented, the advertising plan is laid out, and all you have to do is print them out for pennies and place the ads. Do it today! Rush me your payment of $149.00 right now...and get your very own MILLION DOLLAR publishing company going! You can start with one or two manuals...even the day you receive the package...and then expand to include ALL of them!
