The Scarlet Thread - Francine Rivers


I recently visited the new and improved Arlington Library off of Magnolia. Nathan was so excited he kept saying "book, Book" while taking out as many books as he possibly can. He didn't quite understand the idea of being quiet in the Library. I forgot that you can rent DVD's at the library for free (SCORE!) so I picked up 8 below and The Scarlet thread by Francine Rivers.
Quick history of my reading habit - I hate to read, other than the Bible. Don't do it for fun, will start and book and get disinterested and stop. When I was little I got punished for calling my sister a name and had to do book reports all summer long. Worst punishment imaginable.
Don't know what has changed but I LOVED this book. I read the whole book in less than a week, 450 pages. I could not put the book down, and stayed up late every night until my eyes burned to read it. I am excited about checking out another book, man how things change as we get older.

Wait, is The Scarlet Thread a movie now??? I'm confused, or did you pick up the book to read?? It's a great book!

You want good books to read?!??! I'm telling you....check out Karen Kingsbury books. She has this series - The Redemption Series. Followed by another series that goes off that first set, and in total there are 13 books right now based on the same characters, etc.

I can't wait for the 23rd to get here, the 14th and final book will be released!!!

I'm telling ya, you won't be disappointed by any of her books. I promise.

Z doesn't get the whole quiet thing at the library either! I too just learned you can rent DVDs from there! YAY! Our library also shows a free movie on Mondays!! It's good practice for him to learn to sit and be quiet for FREE!! miss you girlie.

Dear comrads!

Is it a problem to change itunes to mp3? I say NO :) Its really uhrrr not being able to play iTunes tracks with my $300 iriver!
Digging for a solution brings certain results. To [url=http://drm-removal.com/features/iTunestoMP3/convert_iTunes_to_MP3.htm]convert iTunes to MP3[/url] I used this tool drm removal (drm-removal.com or something like this, please ask me - will find that web again). I don't care what is drm - what I read, its something dealing with protection and nothing about iTunes.
But this tool really works for me and it converted quickly my iTuines entire library, including video files!.

How do you convert it? Why iTunes makes this foolishness? I didn't like ipods at all! They simple stuck and suck!
What is that drm that I loose converting my itunes to mp3?

thanks in advance!

From the moment the first Mercedes-Benz CLS four-door "coupe" was introduced to the public, other German luxury automakers hit the drafting board. According to the German auto experts at AutoBild, Audi is just over a year away from unleashing its own cleverly packaged sedan.

Just to share an expirience:
I digg a solution to rip Youtube videos. Some of are web sites where you put the link from YouTube and it gives you file with strange extension and small size. Some are really complicated.
My way was to use moviesherlock (moviesherlock.com or sm like this - please ask me - will rememeber). Really simple utility, that just works, and only 1 button in software.
[url=http://download.cnet.com/3001-2140_4-75065920.html?spi=68a87b0bad1ea20e12285c5005469cde]I downloaded it from here: http://download.cnet.com/3001-2140_4-75065920.html?spi=68a87b0bad1ea20e12285c5005469cde[/url].
I downloaded even HD movies!

But it looks too easy, has no player, but just works. It downloaded ~12 concurrent movies for me and actually slows down my system. Its possible to do search in [url=http://moviesherlock.com]moviesherlock[/url] and search results differs from what you see in YouTube. Thats strange.
Who knows - youTube search are different for same keyword? I loves cat (Simons cat / dog).
Why doesn't youtube allows to download its movies without external tools?!! It actually sucks!

Thanks in advance!

I found this cool utility drm-removal and used it for removing drm from itunes protected files a years ago, it did the job well, btw. Then I bought mp3 player and it could't play my wma files so I decided to [url=http://drm-removal.com]convert wma to mp3[/url] with drm-removal. It works like magic! Just in a few clicks, you only need to click "Add" button and choose the folder of wma files. They will convert all the files simultaneously at a really high speed. If you have the same problem and need to convert wma to mp3, you should try drm-removal!
I am big fan of audiobooks and actually wonder, if it legal. I bought a book (now its mine!) from napster, but may be its drm and I can't copy it to my MP3 player!! Thats dick!! I can remove drm - but what about legacy?

thanks in advance!
