    And for 300 followers, I think you should throw us a big ice cream and cake party. A wine and cheese tasting would work,too. :)

    Congrats Angela!!! I know 300 means a T-shirt and book ;-D

    I finally saw, "Inception" it felt like mind matrix to me. I loved all the metaphors and the vibe. I think they will make another one...

    When you hit 300 followers you should throw out a contest to see who can turn your book into a movie script.

    Forget about the number of followers. As long as you keep posting ics of Kate Beckinsale, you'll be getting your 100 hits.

    That should be pics, not ics. Can't have the word "ick" and Kate Beckinsale in the same sentence.

    Hey, what happened to my previous post? And did you consider Bobby Orr's famous goal winning shot for this blog?

    Okay, I'll try to repost my original post that is no longer showing. Forget about the 300 followers. As long as your posting ics of Kate Beckinsale, you'll get your 100 comments. Okay, time to polish off this bottle of wine. Hic (as in hiccup). Or ic. Or ick. Or pic. Whatever.

    Ellie, wasn't Inception awesome?

    Powdered, I like that idea!

    Rogue, that would blow my mind.

    Stephen, ick cannot be in the same sentence with Kate. Remember, don't drink and blog.

    Oh well, guess I'll just have to buy the book.

    Speaking of; I was browsing through yur posts and notice a new Shannara book out. Thanks for the tip. Terry Brooks rocks, in my world. I think I have all his fantasy's - sadly, none of his sci-fi's. Hmm, says something about me as a sci-fi reader . .

    Congrats to the winner of your book. A lucky blogger indeed.
