      No offense.
      That is the best literary critique you can offer? Maybe you should read the likes of Green Eggs and Ham.
      I'll bet McMurtry never wrote anythink this inspired:

      I am Sam


      I am Sam

      Sam I am


      That Sam-I-am

      That Sam-I-am!

      I do not like

      that Sam-I-am


      Do you like

      green eggs and ham


      I do not like them,

      Sam-I-am.

      I do not like

      green eggs and ham.


      Would you like them

      Here or there?


      I would not like them

      here or there.

      I would not like them

      anywhere.

      I do not like

      green eggs and ham.

      I do not like them,

      Sam-I-am


      Would you like them

      in a house?

      I can't run no more
      With that lawless crowd
      While the killers in high places
      Say their prayers out loud
      But they've summoned, they've summoned up
      A thundercloud
      They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

        It's funny, what really got her interested was the situation with Peru vs Yale

        The Incas built this mysterious city here, it is told, to be closer to the gods. It was placed so high in the clouds, at 7,700feet, that the empire

        It took completing a masters to figure this out!! This must be your side of the family.

              Apparently, we were both freaks of nature.


              Getting back to Mr. McMurtry......
              Has anyone read Rhino Ranch? Guess he finally does in old Duane.
