LOL yeah, I think you just might be the last person in the universe to read Mrs. Pollifax. Isn't she an absolute delight? Love, love love anything Dorothy Gilman wrote - her stand alones are just as good if not even better than the Mrs. Pollifax novels. You do have to suspend disbelief a bit with Mrs. Pollifax - in this age of post 9/11 security, the whole premise would never have happened - but they are just delightful books.
