Either way, I never read it.<br /><br />Andrew:<br /><br />I finally got one you liked!<br /><br />Michael:<br /><br />They say his real name is "Justin Randall Timberlake." In his latest commercial, they say at one point "Are you ready, JT?" and that got Sweetie calling him JT, and apparently has convinced her now that his name is "JT Timberlake." I never miss an opportunity to show her that I, too, know about show biz, albeit nowhere near her level of smarts. When you are constantly on the losing argument of every debate (i.e., "marriage"), you have to take your victories where you can.

"Invisible Man" was one of those books where we read an excerpt in high school and I went to the library and checked the book out to read the whole thing. I was a little disappointed he wasn't literally an invisible man, but it was a good allegory about race even if I went to a high school that was 99.9% white.PT Dillowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09394481476862013009noreply@blogger.com
