True... if I were the only one that would affect... My kids might be a little put out the next time they came to visit daddy and had to share a cardboard box though... and I know the ex-wife would be a sore-head bout the whole thing  |

I've just signed back on after a long absence, but spend every night listening to Jim's audio books, and just finished Turn Coat. Was very disappointed to see I missed a signing in Chicago, since I live right in Downers Grove -but WOW! Naperville!! Twenty minutes away - I'm so glad I will get a chance to see Jim in person - love his writing. I'm still smiling at Harry riding down Michigan Avenue aboard Sue!
Welcome to the Chicago Burbs, Jim. Hope to see you,
TonieH.
