But the rest of your comments completed it.<br /><br />I just finished a little book, a mere 100 pages, called The History of Lies. I'm doing a brief review for the Internet Review of Books. It's written by Daniel Nanavati, a Brit... and the humor is delightful. His chapter on the lies of politicians is interesting, funny, and cheered me. Misery loves company, you know.<br /><br />Anyway, I guess you can always be suspicious of telemarketers who ask for Christopher. I go by my middle name, too, an when someone asks for Lillian... I just know they aren't a friend.Ruth L.~https://www.blogger.com/profile/01008932486010118709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238084856370735932.post-21908712778731714922010-03-09T21:59:34.468+00:002010-03-09T21:59:34.468+00:00Love the Alan Bennett quote!

But, as you know, I'm a political junkie. Love the stuff.<br /><br />I imagine those poll people are having a harder time of it what with all the people who use a mobile as their primary communication device.<br /> <br />I thought Obama's 2008 presidential campaign was very smart about getting the kids to text in a reply to a question, thereby gaining their numbers.sarah corbett morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06327514344421041651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238084856370735932.post-24721965300609680252010-03-09T00:18:49.116+00:002010-03-09T00:18:49.116+00:00Don't tell indeed!

I am an utter neophyte when it comes to the vote, although I've participated much more these last dozen or so years—more so then I did in my first dozen or so years past the age of majority.timhttp://telhajj.comnoreply@blogger.com
