M: i didnt realize it, i stumbled into it while i was a computer geek that likd to read a lot, and it turns out that computer geeks that like to read a lot are good at organizing and mantaining a library. so um..i read everything under the sun...anything...any kind of book, fiction, non fiction, all genres...
Z; what has been your favorite book of all time that you have read from htis library?

M: well, one book that i devoured...um..i dunno...i really like "So B it", i liked "Foundation", thats like my big sci fi, i really liked the Singer of all Songs, Ursula LeGuin..um..so most of my favorites are fantasy or sci fi
Z: whats your fav non fiction?

Z: ive got a q...i once read a book on the Loch Ness monster..
I: oh yah!
Z: it had a bunch of facts and stuff..does that count as nonfiction?
M: yah

Z: do you have any dogs of your own?
M: the aging Zoey, a mutt, looks like shes part german shephard but ive been told shes an american eskimo..
M: and Zoey is the sweetest dog but a total wimp...so she barks a lot because shes so scared of everyone, but please dont let a man come to our door with a hat on, she will think hes a terrorist.
Z: have you had any cats?
M: well this year we had a terrible tragedy...we had 2 cats, but maggie, was very old, just went under the chair and died. then our other cat, talon the crazy cat, was kidnapped apparently, he jus disappeared, and apparently there was 3 other cats that disappeared in the same time frame. and we had another cat a few years back who had a tumor and his name was Perrier, and his name was perrier because he swam across a creek to get to us. i have a philosiphy: cat names must be long.
M; so our wimp dog is afraid of thunderstorms so one night she crawled in bed with me...you havent lived till youve had a 65 lbs dog crawl into your bed.
