Another NYT top Ten Best Seller? What about the Movie rights, have they been optioned yet? AND WHO is this guy Lubemaster? I seemed to recall that there was a guy who USED to hang around here by that name? Hmmmm..Is it the same guy or someone else using his ID...better get the ID sheriff on this one, to check it out thoroughly.

TWICE AS MORE Is that Chinese for "Twice as many." Seems like you also leaarned a second language in your time away from the Pelican...OR is it the state of American education that has caused the Fauxpaws..

But for those who are having problems making ends meet due to a Porsche diet and a Ford income, they can always buy the app...provided they own technology to use it.
