Obviously, that ain't about to happen.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, the back cover of <I>Ghostly Gallery</I> so reminds me of the upstairs room I used to stay in when I went to visit my grandparents (old--as in 1828 or earlier--farmhouse). Had there been a swamp adjacent instead of a bunch of hokie family ghost stories* I might <I>never</I> have slept!<BR/><BR/>*Mysterious opening doors, glowing figures in the three-acre yard...G. W.

I was seriously considering an addition to the archives (after all, they don't know what they got and, after all, nobody ever checks it out), but the puritan ethic got the best of me. Sigh. I remember the WPL had a copy of Bradbury's "The Black Ferris" in hardback at one time, but that seems to have gone missing some time ago. AAAAARRRGGGG!JSaMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08362142680439802535noreply@blogger.com
