Well, at least the white stuff is fog, and not snow. You don't have to shovel fog!!!!

Check it out on amazon.com

And then buy it from your local independent bookseller.

wearing a little more than
our Norm's stubbies and a singlet though


Yes, I am indeed, and thank you for the warm welcome. I've got to read the FAQ to get these little emoticons going better. I'm sure that my editor in chief (guess who Bean ) will help me get along here.

I'm curious though. I think I understand the stubbies part (being beer bottles...I hope) but who is Norm?

Thanks! But, I am a little worried though that you Aussies and New Zealanders might get the wrong impression about my parents, so I'll just say now, I was named after Dag Hammerskjold, the Swedish diplomat and SG of the UN...not the...ummm...other...little...things.

Or Norm, the heavy-set heaving-drinking regular on the American television sit-com CHEERS. Tell me NN, how do you feel about beer?
