I have been on the other end of Susan’s book slump lately. I recently finished reading “To Hate Like This Is to Be Happy Forever: A Thoroughly Obsessive, Intermittently Uplifting, and Occasionally Unbiased Account of the Duke-North Carolina Basketball Rivalry”. It was a really good book. If any of you that don’t live in North Carolina want to know how we think about the rivalry this is the book. The author was funny and very accurate about how Carolina fans fell about Duke.
I am also almost finished reading Eric Clapton’s autobiography. This is also a really good book if you are a music fan. It is amazing that he is still alive with all the drugs and drinking he did. Once he got clean he opened a rehab center and in a effort to raise money for it he auctioned off a lot of his guitars. He got $959,500 for his famous “blackie” guitar and after hearing that Susan says that we are going to auction my guitars. I keep telling her that I am not famous and we will never get that much for them (not to mention I’m not getting rid of them) but she remains optimistic.

I’m still stuck on the fact that Paul has read a book…much less 2!!
Are you still playing your guitars? You used to be pretty good! Haven’t heard you play in a long time!
Off topic, we’re getting excited about the beach/marathon! Hope ya’ll are feeling better.
I am full of surprises.
I didn’t play my guitars for several years but I recently started playing again.
We are excited about the marathon also…once it is over we can stop running so much!!!
