Although I am not the best reader on the planet, I do love to read.
It was all that got me through college!
That and a memory with perfect recall ...
Of course that also means I have to go about ten years before rereading something!
I got into reading in 7th grade.
We had no TV in Germany.
In fact, I only know of one (1) in my entire town!
If I was well behaved, I could watch the latest episode of, Get Smart!
Yeah, warped even back then!
But I made weekly pilgrimages to the local NATO libraries.
Zane Grey, Alfred Hitchcock and Leonard Wibberly were amongst my favorite authors.
But anything having to do with history or the para-normal viable was well.
Today, I still love Wibberly, but Agatha Christie and Tony Hillerman are now favorites.
Since my brain damage, I have been reading my Bible in short stints.
I even tried going back to my German Bible but it is even slower for me than in English!
And French?
Oh forget that one!
And it used to be my strongest language to read in!
So, just finished some old books by Barbara Johnson.
A Christian author and humorist, she wrote some very thoughtful stuff.
I wish I could write like that!
So much more to say, but alas, I am out of time and in too much pain!
