Hey... it's a close race... only a hand full more for Jeeves and it could overtake the boat. Alas... the ghosts seem to have lost momentum.

Row row row your boat gently up the stream...

Vote for the men and a doggie in a boat!

I'd go in and "fix" the vote, but BOb's a mod, too, and he knows how to change my profile and stuff.

Hrm... so what's BOb bribable with?

(Altho, as your avatar's an otter, how bad could it get? Maybe a squirrel riding an otter, as your avatar and your profile wallpaper...)

What otter?

ShortNCuddlyAm · 07-02-2009, 06:24 PM

There's what looks suspiciously like a sea otter staring at me from under your name...

Or maybe a sea pandotter...

ShortNCuddlyAm · 07-02-2009, 06:39 PM

I would have voted for the silences of colonel Bramble, but I cannot find the book in French and it seems really silly for me to read the English translation of a French book.

Well; it's funny to read it in English, but you lose part of what I liked in French, i.e. English-sounding French

Well, if I read the English translation out loud, I'd have French-sounding English, would that make up for it?

I voted for Three Men in a Boat after downloading and reading a few pages. How does the Book Club work? I didn't see anything about it on the Forums page.

CharlieBird · 07-04-2009, 03:27 PM

Forgot to mention, it was thx to Nate's front page post that I was aware of the BC.
