| Good idea, Joe. So here goes:
I am happy today. My 90 year old mother- in- law is dong well recovering from her second broken hip in 4 monthes.
She worked as a nurse until she broke the first hip at 89. She is very remarkable and I am so glad to be related to her.
Are you happy about anything? |

She worked as a nurse at age 89? Full time? Part time? What kind of nurse?

| Shotcopy.com: At sixty bucks I think you'd be disappointed. A Camcorder does not make a high-resolution still image. I think you'd be happier with a slide scanner. And for not much more $. http://www.bizrate.com/scanners/35-millimeters-slide-scanners/ |

| I am happy today.
- My novel has completed the final edit, and I am shopping now for a publisher.
- I finished converting another of my computer programming books to kindle and ipad format and got a reversion of rights so I can publish it.
- A luminary in the world of ventriloquists has agreed to write a foreword on my new book on ventriloquism.
All's right with the world. |

| I watched the UTube with Whoppie Goldberg's rendition (Sister Act 2) of "Oh Happy Day." The music and rendition are great. You may want to watch it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLY7yI1xV-M
It is uplifting. |
