Huh

Well. I checked my little poll.

And you people really like Alan Rickman, don't you?

I am so very, very surprised. Oh, yes. I am shocked. Shocked, I tell you.

(And honestly, I love Colonel Brandon, too.)

And to the three who said they didn't know who these people are, especially the one young woman I know just started college - Jane Austen. Wonderful writer. Or Ang Lee. Wonderful director.

The books are free on The Gutenberg Project.

Just saying.

Okay, if I write the story, it'll be an AU where Elinor marries the dear Colonel. Will that satisfy you? :)

I suspected as much from you, actually.

I'm not so sure about the others. I know some perfectly well educated people (*glares at husband*) who haven't.

Is it because I have a wicked sense of humor? *g*

Seriously--here? No. Last school year, my two oldest were both the top readers in their schools, both reading at least a hundred books above the next student behind them. The people were appalled that they read that much. *headdesk*

(I'm talking my darlings read nearly 200 books each throughout the school year--Harry Potter length at the minimum. The students behind them? None read above 64 books at either school.)

And my children actually do other things than read.
