OMG... BT!!!! I've missed ya, girl! *Hugs*

Yeah, reading for pleasure would seem to be the exception rather than the rule these days. =/ Thankfully, I still know of quite a number of these "deviants and freaks." ;D

I hope you're reporting them; I mean, next thing, they will start thinking on their own. Books are a gateway dryg.

While I know this is parody, it sadly reminds me of someone on an online forum who was complaining that one of her co-workers couldn't participate in discussions of TV shows because "she prefers to READ BOOKS! What kind of person is she, anyway? There must be something wrong with her!"
