The Town of Odyssey

I keep buying boxes of naval oranges advertising the year of the dragon (not sure what the connection is there) so I did know that little factoid. That's a beautiful image, bookworm!

Wow, thanks for sharing so many of your favourites, Bananareader! Isaiah 40:31 that you quote first is one of my favourites as well.

I kind of forgot about this movie, but your post does not inspire me to go find it! Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Kaida. This sounds like a miss.

Awesome, happy to hear it.

We have had a couple of first posts with atypical elements recently. Not quite sure what to chalk that up to! Either you mean something different than what I'm thinking regarding the preview button, or it's you, or it's fixed. Try again - it just worked for me! If it still doesn't work, Petrichor po...

hi marvin, i do remember this. i remember doing it one time when i was a mere child and receiving a kind, but stern private message from a moderator who explained that this was behavior that we do not do here. that's why i triple posted instead of double posting here. also, do we even have mods any...

Hey Joshua, welcome to the ToO! I don't know if these things are theoretically possible, as that isn't my area of expertise, but I suspect that they won't happen at least in the immediate future. What menu do you want always at the top of the page? I'm used to the way things currently are, but if I'...

We've actually made it to 18 years or so - even more amazing! It's always nice to have ToOers stop by. Good to hear that you're doing well.

I'm trying to avoid adding new authors to me reading list, since I have so many books already waiting for me, My 'to read list' numbers about 2000, so I hear ya. Oh good, glad it's not just me. ;) Laurie, that title sounded interesting so I looked it up and a story about Martha sounds intriguing! S...

It's been advertised a bit by AIO and FOTF so she easily could have seen it online somewhere. If you go, share some memories! I hope if any ToOers go, they share a few stories. If they have one tenth of the fun we had last time (what, maybe fourteen years ago?!) then they will have an awesome time.

Wow, I didn't realize KC was so dominant...mostly based on my total lack of interest in the NFL. I usually do watch some of the Super Bowl for my one NFL games a year.

Yes, looks like fun! :D Are you planning to go, Jonathan? I don't plan to attend - it's a bit of a trek from way up here in Canada and I wasn't quite interested enough to make all the details work out. I had such a wonderful time at the two other live shows I've been lucky enough to attend over the ...

I'm trying to avoid adding new authors to me reading list, since I have so many books already waiting for me, but your big recommendation makes me tempted to add to my list Laurie. :D I'm about to start "Engaging Deception" by Regina Jennings. I really loved the second book in the Joplin C...

I love Fred Holstein, and actually used a variation of one of his lines on an unsuspecting person just today! I can't remember it exactly, so I picked a different one I could find to share, but the one I used was something about bringing a tear to his cheek. Fred Holstein: I can only suspect that th...

I've never been a big Amish fiction fan, but it does seem very popular!

I'm moving on to "Letter Perfect" by Cathy Marie Hake - another one of her good books that I haven't read for years and wanted to enjoy again.

I recently read "Forevermore" by Cathy Marie Hake. I was fondly recalling how much I like some of her books and decided to re-read some of her books.

I'm reading "Proposing Mischief" by Regina Jennings. It's good so far. A bit of a unique main character, which I'm liking so far.

Aww, that sounds like a tough situation. I'm praying, Ingress.

If nobody else wants to post about your greatness, do it yourself! Congrats, AE!

Wow, and a big enough event to bring David O back to you! Talk about monumental.
