Post Thank you Jeremy!
Jeremy mailed me his audio tapes of Lies and I've been listening to them in my car the past few days. Usually I take notes while reading so I can refer back to sections on which I'd like to comment...but I don't want to try and write while driving and wreck into another pole. Last month I took out a pole at 50mph. :\

Thanks Jeremy!

No, the Lexus is what I bought after I totalled my car. So far I have avoided most poles in this car. :smokin
