Works for ListenerLighters, too. I'm one, and just tried the link. Gave me the sale information. Audiobooks are marked down for me. Could have placed orders.

Since they aren't discounted very heavily, especially, if there is one that you'd like to purchase, I encourage you to check the price on the ebook, see if there is an Audible narration (so as to create a Whispersync deal), and see how much the Whispersync deal is. It may be cheaper.

I did that for all audiobooks in one sale a couple of years ago, and there were several whose Whispersync deals were cheaper. Even though the discount on the sale books was higher. I don't have the time to do that for all of the audiobooks in this sale, sorry.

Dear Tube Guy:

There is no "sort of illegal." There is only legal or illegal.

I'm sure that there is some rule in the MobileRead rulebook against advocating something illegal.

You are a moderator of some kind. You are setting a terrible example to us peons by posting an audiobook advocating something illegal.

Still Your Friend,

Who is advocating that people do something illegal? I haven't read the book, but from the description, I don't see anything that is encouraging people to break the law themselves.

Or are you saying that we should not be allowed to read autobiographies by, say, Harriet Tubman, Rosa Parks or or Martin Luther King (assuming such books exist), because they talk about things they did that were against the law?

It was tongue-in-cheek.

I like to annoy tubemonkey--just a little bit--sometimes. And I think that he likes to do the same to me occasionally.

I put the hoping that people would realize that I was being facetious.

For your eyes only:

Spoiler:

I'm sorta illegal too, so I guess it doesn't matter much to me. As a teen in the early 60s, I kinda snuck into this country on a banana shipment to San Diego. To escape immigration, I spent a couple of years at the San Diego Zoo in the monkey exhibit before slowly working my way up the coast to Seattle. On the way, I did a TV show in Hollywood for a couple of years with three other guys. We even recorded some records. They named the show and band after me. Then I headed to San Francisco for the Summer of Love. It was easy for me to blend in with the hippies, 'cause I really let my fur grow. I even wore some flowers.

Anyway, that's enough for now. Kinda keep this info hush hush. I'd hate to get deported to back to Costa Rica after all these years.
