We're recording WHAT??

Everything except LibriVox (yes, this is where knitting gets discussed. Now includes non-LV Volunteers Wanted projects)

Had to laugh when i thought 'Demi wore a nosegay of dandelions in his buttonhole' said 'Demi wore a nosegay of dandelions in his butthole' :lol:

I found this funny:

~[2 Sections Left] Out of the Closet: A Collection of Early LGBTQ+ Fiction-ans

2 sections left out of the closet? Ignoring the rest of the title, I guess they should be returned to the closet! :lol:
Serial novel: The Wandering Jew
Medieval England meets Civil War Americans: Centuries Apart
Humor: My Lady Nicotine

Not exactly a book, but I was briefly startled to see a thread title at the head of the Off-Topic Forum announcing Scheduled Librivox Outrage. (I'm pretty new to LV but have kept being pleasantly surprised by the degree to which the tone in here is amiable rather than composed of the dueling outrages that seem to fill a lot of Internet forums. Of course, there are still plenty of outraged books getting read in, including the Tolstoy I'm working on, but...)
Then I saw that it was merely an outage.
Back from a low-internet no-Librivox year in Georgia. Glad to be with you again.

Ha ha! Yes, periodically we have a real knock-down, drag-out mudslinging outrage event, so that we're nice and pleasant the rest of the time. :lol:

Honest, for over a month I wondered why someone would have EVER written a book called "The Valley of Squinting Widows"... :hmm: :oops:

It’s graduation time on planet Earth right now, and there are a lot of graduation signs up. I recently saw one that said CONGA RATS! but upon further investigation, turned out to read CONGRATS! :lol:

I was just looking through classified listings and thought I read "Turkey Massage Business" and was trying to imagine who would massage turkeys and why when I realized it actually said Turnkey Massage Business.
