i heard a radio interview with laura bush recently, and the interviewer asked her what the president has been reading lately. she said that he just finished reading The Emperor of Ocean Park (by Stephen Carter)....but so have i! i don't know what to think now...i mean, i feel like now we share some kind of literary comraderie, and i can no longer hate him as much because he, too, enjoyed the book.

some time in the past few weeks, geroge w. bush and i were reading the same book at the exact same time. *shudder*
