Sometimes it seems like fate...

Came home after a long day of Kerry, and sat down with the novel I'm reading for a few hours of escape, Any Place I Hang My Hat by Susan Isaacs, and look at the passage I came across:

After I was finished with her, I started to feel guilty about taking the afternoon off. So I drove from Miami to Miami Beach because John Kerry was in town. I watched him dump on the Bush tax cut before the Hardy-Schmidt Conduit distributors convention at the Fontainebleau Hotel. They seemed unable to comprehend supply-side economics or, indeed, Senator Kerry, though I thought he was in good form. His press person gave me fifteen minutes on the bus with him on the way to his next stop, a Guatemalan-American leadership organization, and I got enough substantive, quotable stuff on his environmental views to put a genuine smile on face.

Sometimes it doesn't pay to try to escape. It must be fate.

2. Susan Isaacs! I enjoy her books, though she doesn't write nearly

enough. I'll have to find that book. She's one of those durn liberal NYers, isn't she. :evilgrin:

5. Yeah, I think you'd

have to say she outs herself as a liberal in this one. Not that there was much doubt to begin with...;-)

3. Book

Is that a new one?

I try to read all her books. (new as in the last couple of years so I might not have read it)

I got it at our local bookstore from the remainder table! I love her books too.
