That's #48 of an ever growing list of tyops and grandma mistakes that I'm spotting. Proving once again that English is not my native tongue. (It's more grunting and whacking things with sticks, which makes ordering at McDonald's interesting)

Then it would be just one page. (Hey I'm putting that knowledge I got writing term papers to use)

So can mine, but then I usually start bitching about the paper jam and try to figure out what the heck I'm going to do with this black sheet of crumpled paper.

Actually, sadly. I've only got a few bits of it done and the next few weeks are going to be hell. I've got most of my family showing up for Christmas week (which would be nicer if I wasn't living in a bungelow), a major project I'm about a month behind on, Christmas shopping I have STILL yet to do (or find the time to do) *AND* get the normal chapters out in a semi-reasonable fashion.

I've already had to cancel the road production of TGC. (You wouldn't believe what they wanted to charge for a fifteen foot terrier). Still, it's not all for the bad, the monkeys were having a really hard time memorizing their lines.

(although the one playing JB looked pretty cute in his outfit)
