“Today we fight. Tomorrow we fight. The day after, we fight. And if this disease plans on whipping us, it better bring a lunch, 'cause it's gonna have a long day doing it.”
Jim Beaver, Life's That Way

“While I was drying off Maddie after her bath tonight, she said, 'I love you' to me for the first time. It sounded like 'All lub boo,' but I didn't care. To reciprocate, I showed her what an ex-Marine looks like when he cries.”
Jim Beaver, Life's That Way

“Forgiveness is not something you do for someone else; it's something you do for yourself. To forgive is not to condone, it is to refuse to continue feeling bad about an injury.”
Jim Beaver, Life's That Way

Guy Thank you for accepting my add. The diversity of your library is fascinating. I believe I will find many books to read that I might not have ever seen before. That's the point of reading, right? To take the mind to continents unexplored.

Jemiah Jefferson Any man with your levels of nuance and thoughfulness, combined with a lack of pretense and nonsense, is a person whose book recommendations I can take seriously. Can't wait to read that Lee Marvin book!

Camile Souza (This Chamber of Books) Hey, thank you the add Jim :D
I know lots of people have already said that, but I guess it's never too much telling you did a great job on SPN and that we really miss you :P And I was excited to find out you're also a writter (and a enthusiastic reader). Looking foward to reading your book and seeing you in Brazil this year :)

Rowan Thanks very much for accepting me as one of your friends. :) I'm a big Supernatural fan and really like your character on the show. Who doesn't like Bobby!? lol. It was sad to see him go.But its Supernatural so who knows,maybe Bobby will come back in some shape or form, at least for a little while. hehe. Anyway, it's interesting to see the books you have in your collection. I've actually read some of them. Looking forward to reading your book as well, it seems very intriguing. :)

Cheers
Marie :)
