Amazon Kindle

Hi!
My Amazon shorts still haven't appeared. Soon, maybe.

I'm sure the folks at Amazon are much too busy with the Christmas rush of people who are excited about their new electronic paper reader, the Kindle.

Well, I succumbed, too. I ordered one. It says it won't arrive until after Crhistmas, but that's okay.

Yes, I know. I'm an electronics nut. I love the stuff. We'll see if this one lives up to all the hype.

I can't believe the people who are giving it a "review" when they haven't even seen or used it yet.

Hey, a "review" is supposed to be given AFTER you use the thing!!! Maybe they can't afford one and are jealous of the people who can? Sigh.

Those reviews bug me, just like some book reviewers bug me when they skim through and don't really read a book. I mean, how stupid is that? If you don't want to try something, then don't. But don't knock it unless you've tried it anyway. Or pan a book you haven't read.

Sorry. We got a big snowstorm in MN yesterday, so I'm not in the best of moods. I really hate driving in the stuff and I have to get out in the morning.

Today I have the fireplace going and DH and I have played a bunch of dominos.
