"Oh, Mr. Bingley wouldn't dare turn zombie. He's just too nice a young man."

Ah but Caroline, his sister wants only one thing in life: BRAAAIIINNNS!

[I apologize for knowing who Mr. Bingley is. Mrs. Director is an unofficial Austen expert, page and screen. That's my excuse and I'm sticking with it. One of our early 'deals' was trading favorite novels. She was convinced I would get hooked after reading P&P. Wrong.]

Then I see a Valentine's Day gift here. . .too bad it's not released yet, or does not appear to be.

What is there to apologize for? Should I apologize because I know who Jack Bauer is?

I hope this book isn't a joke. I'd read it (from the library - not buying any new books this year).

I have no idea what you are talking about, so, probably, no.

I meant this.

Oh. . .Nope. . .wasn't this Dan.

Me neither.

Muddgirl, it was meant as a tongue-in-cheek defense of my masculinity.

What, we're going to start slighting great works of art for being like too feminine now? You should feel edgy; novels were like PORN for puritans you know.

Oh, I keep forgetting that guys don't read.

For the record, I did not post this in order for this thread to become a pissing contest.

It just seems like silly fun (the book).

No one's pissing. I think the book is silly fun. I got confused earlier because I can't keep up with all the Man Rules. Sorry to ruin people's fun. Smiley Face :)

Quoth Mrs. Director, "That's just not right." But then, as I said, she's a bit of an Austen fanatic, especially wrt P&P.
