Here's a typical scene at Book Club! ;-0

Here's a typical scene at Book Club! ;-0



...and on a humourous note:

Here's a youtube video that seems so appropriate for a book club (thanks to Susan for sharing):   "It's a Book!" by Lane Smith.

And here's the "Medival Help Desk!" to help you when you can't read this month's book choice on your e-reader.

A Woman Who Reads

One morning a husband returns after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap. Although not familiar with the lake, his wife decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance, drops anchor and begins to read her book. The peace and solitude are magnificent. Along comes a fish&game warden in his boat. He pulls up alongside the woman and says, "Good morning, ma'am. What are you doing?"

"Reading a book," she replies (thinking, 'Isn't that obvious?').

"You're in a Restricted Fishing Area," he informs her.

"I'm sorry, Officer, but I'm not fishing, I'm reading."

"Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment. I'll have to take you in and write you up."

"If you do that, I'll have to charge you with sexual assault,"says the woman.

"But I have not even touched you," says the game warden.

"That's true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment."

"Have a nice day, ma'am," he said, and left.

Moral of this story: Never argue with a woman who reads. It is likely she can also think.
