Good. Kelvin's not lost it, then - quirky but enjoyable. As ever. :-)

Totally off topic- I am looking for a copy of "Benjamin's Book" for the teacher that I work with. She said it is one of her favorites; it helped her get through a devastating divorce. It would be the perfect teacher appreciation gift. If you have any information as to where I could find a copy, please drop me a line. Thank you very much.

Sorry, you've got the wrong Alan Baker...

here and for US 3... the postage will be 6ix times cost of the book!

http://www.amazon.com/Benjamin-Bounces-Back-Alan-Baker/dp/039731809X

but, I suspect you can "google" from there

or

visit a used book store?

anyway

what's the "skinny" on what is now going on at Oxford?

I hope the other two "contestants" drop out in protest over the DW "stuff"...

well in 4 years American Social Security AND Medicare will dry-up...

it s all about feeding our fears
etc

It seems Derek Walcott isn't a flawless individual, and that bars him from being Professor of Poetry at Oxford.

that's funny "the wrong Alan Baker"

well I also got a children's book author
over here

calls herself ED Baker or, sometimes, E.D. Baker AND

I have gotten emails from kids in elementary school asking about "my"

The Frog Princess book..

and from where did I get my ideas... I told one little darling that

"after I fry up a mess of Bull Frog's legs and down 9 cold beers THEN I write my stories..

this E.D. Baker also lives not too far from me...

have never seen one of her books... don't care to.. however, timidly,

I emailed her via her publisher and asked her to use her real name instead of "ED"

as her kiddie books were interfering with me getting famous in my own poetic/art right!

she replied... I forget what she said

sooo all of these Baker's
geeze.

maybe she will do a children's story about children in bombed out Iraq? or children all over the world being sold into sex-slavery-business?

and don't get me started about...OUR BEAUTIFUL LEADERS

I guess you've got to be a bottom feeder to become a politician, eh..

they ALL lie-like-sacks
