Allow me to introduce myself...

Hi, my name is Sige. Since I'm the older sib and a CAT, I get to post first. Zoe is an okay dog as long as she doesn't crowd me. My folks say I present a striking image with my one blue eye and my one green eye.

Here's Zoe!

Hi, I'm Zoe. My brother Sige says dogs always come after cats so I have to post after him. He used to punch me a lot when I was a little pup, but he's okay with me now. My folks give me great treats.

Isabella? No, It's Bella

So Dad couldn't find Casino Royale last week. He decided to read Twilight (The Twilight Saga) instead. Despite Mom's teasing that "It's a teenage girl's book!" Dad believes that one is never too old for a good book. A person can be too young for a good book--for example, when Dad was 13 years old, he couldn't get past the first sentence of To Kill a Mockingbird. A year later, however, he couldn't put it down and has reread that book at least once since then.

So far, though, he's finding it hard slogging. He really doesn't like Bella that much. Dad's wondering if it's going to be like The Catcher in the Rye where lots of teenage boys related to the book, but teenage girls didn't get it. Only in reverse: teenage girls absolutely love Edward and Bella's adventures, and boys scratch their heads thinking, "What's the big deal?"
