Thanks, bfisher, for your posts. Your posting of these gave me the opportunity to let your neighbors to the south know about them.

Moved to the "Christian Interest" thread.

[GtrsRGr8]

This book belongs on this thread.(ha) The book is published by Westminster John Knox Press, which publishes books for Christians. However, one of the authors is Jewish. There appears to be only historical references to Christianity in the book.

Although the publisher seems to make a big deal about this book being a "revised edition," it has been around a while (since 2003).

Approaches to Auschwitz, Revised Edition: The Holocaust and Its Legacy. By Richard L. Rubenstein. Rated 4.2 stars, but from only 4 reviews, at Amazon at the present moment; rated 4.05, from 42 ratings at GoodReads. Print list price $35.00; digital list price $28.00; Kindle price $2.99. Westminster John Knox Press, publisher. 512 pages. http://www.amazon.com/Approaches-Aus...and+Its+Legacy.

I happen to know that this book is available at Christianbook (ePub, DRM Protected), also, and for 70 cents less ($2.39) than at Amazon.

Book Description
Distinctively coauthored by a Christian scholar and a Jewish scholar, this monumental, interdisciplinary study explores the various ways in which the Holocaust has been studied and assesses its continuing significance. The authors develop an analysis of the Holocaust's historical roots, its shattering impact on human civilization, and its decisive importance in determining the fate of the world. This revised edition takes into account developments in Holocaust studies since the first edition was published.

Toaster toast, skillet toast, griddle toast or campfire toast?

I prefer French toast, myself.

Thinking about that's made me hungry. Arrgghh!

[Froide]

I prefer French toast, too. Of course, there's also Kaya toast, Melba toast, milk toast, and Texas toast, not to mention:

Bruschetta
Crostini
Croutons
Cuban, Mariana Island, and Puerto Rican tostadas
Fried bread
Panino
Toast points
Toast sandwichs
Toasted bread crumbs

Apparently yes. The salad place I got lunch at today hasn't learned that you're supposed to toast croutons.

Maybe you should send them some hard copies of the book about making toast. ha

If I was a drinker, I'm sure that I would want to propose a toast to you for such wonderful knowledge of toasts. ha

Thanks. And if you did so with a stiff enough drink, you'd get"toasted"!

I'll make this my last comment on the subject, before the moderator makes me toast. (ha)

Who knew that so much conversation could come from toast? Proves that some of us have no lives. ha

I like the way that this author thinks. ha

Unleash The Sloth! 75 Ways to Reach Your Maximum Potential By Doing Less. By Rob Dircks. Rated 4.7 stars, but from only 12 reviews at Amazon, at the present moment; rated 3.77, from 22 reviews, at GoodReads. Print list price $10.95; digital list price $0.99; Kindle price now $0.00. Goldfinch Publishing, publisher. 152 pages. http://www.amazon.com/Unleash-Sloth-...+By+Doing+Less.

Book Description
It’s the self-help book you’ve always wanted. The one that tells you’re fine just the way you are – and that you can probably get away with doing even less.

It sounds like a paradox, I know. But just look at the mighty sloth, who makes no excuses for who he is – and becomes everything he needs to be.

And now it’s your turn. Take a nap instead of mowing the lawn. Save yourself a few steps and jaywalk. Save yourself a few pen strokes and replace your signature with an X. Make life easier, and you’ll find that you’ll be just as lovable, productive or unproductive as you would’ve been anyway – but without all the unecessary stress and guilt. Now THAT’S what I call reaching your potential!
