Well if you're in the giving mood, I'd love a new black video ipod to replace the broken one that apple has yet to fix (though it's covered in the class action suit against them). *edit* I'd have commented on your post, though couldn't understand anything I read from that link. |

Congratulations, IT! You're clearly smarter than I look. Seriously, I'm well impressed, as they say across the pond.A hint for the rest of us - if you take the last two vowels off all the words, it's just about in English. |

Whoa! A real live author - with published works! (in the background, the sound of untold thousands of minions ... "we're not worthy.... we're not worthy.... we're not worthy.... ") Megacongratulations. I remember seeing something that I had written in print (no, not THAT), and the warm feeling it gave me. :clap::clap::clap: Now, I assume that you're going to mail everybody here a copy, right? ![]() Just click here, and I'll fill in the addresses for all of us! http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/089870631...=books&v=glance |

ZOOOOOM!

Oh, you've got to be KIDDING me! That's truly wonderful! (I myself have been trying to be a published author for about 9 months now. I only do short stories, but I have some concept of publishing and know that getting your book picked up is a real milestone, regardless of how amazing your book can be.) That is NO easy task, my friend. Congrats are in order! |

Thanks, Deb, it wasn't written as libretto, but I am sure you would bring out its best qualities.

Tell you what, I'll send you a check; send me a copy (in inglese, per favore) with a wonderful, personalized inscription on the inside cover, and that will be my Christmas present to me. Actually, I'm serious; it looks like a great book. |

I love the title of the Italian translation -- The Architecture of the Mystical Body -- it sounds way cooler in Italian, of course. IT's Italian is pretty good, by the way. He got us through Italy very well this summer on his Italian . . . I loved just listening to him order food. He also sweet talked his way in Italian into some closed buildings in Rome, etc. . . . he's such a charmer, they always gave in to his requests. Did you all know that I had read IT's book several months before I met him? I loved it so much I bought six copies and gave them to friends. When I met IT, I didn't catch on to who he was because the way his last name is pronounced is different than how it's spelled. I was actually telling him that if he wanted to discuss church architecture with me, he first needed to read Architecture in Communion because it's essential to understanding the subject. I felt like such a goof when I realized he wrote it! IT was flattered.
