“...It also taught me that while cruelty can be fun for a few moments, compassion has a much longer shelf life.”
― Queen of the Road: The True Tale of 47 States, 22,000 Miles, 200 Shoes, 2 Cats, 1 Poodle, a Husband, and a Bus with a Will of Its Own

“In WASP families, if you don't get along with someone, you have as little to do with them as possible. In Jewish families, you move next door, to make them as miserable as possible.”

“As Tim followed me up the narrow stairwell, he playfully pinched my butt with every step, a pleasant (and painful--in a black-and-blue sort of way) reminder that all I had yearned for as a student twenty-five years before had come true, even if I hadn't taken the time to notice it until now: I was happy. At twenty years old, had I articulated what I thought I needed in life, I would have probably said a big house, a successful husband, and a great career. Yet all I really needed for true happiness was the homeless, unemployed bus driver right behind me, pinching my butt every step of the way.”

thanks for the ad Doreen. Michele Marchettihttp://www.discoverytoyslink.com/mich...
Looking for pt/ft help nationwide Do you know anyone who would like to make money for the holidays!
I grew up on Upland Rd., just a few houses down from the border with Queens. We left over 30 years ago, so I'm sure a lot has changed.
Doreen, where in Great Neck did you grow up? My novel, Miriam the Medium is set in Great Neck with a pivotal scene at Bruce's Bakery. Best, Rochelle Shapiro
