  2. Super! I've only read two of those, but I think the one I chose won't get many votes. We'll see.

  8. I'm still thinking about the wolves from last week... (& thinking about Jon who asked what was scary about wolves). A few years ago I was hiking outside Jackson Hole & you should have seen the size of the wolf footprints. But they sounded cool. But they were close... One summer vacation as a kid I had a recurring nightmare about wolves and then someone showed up and kicked my family out b/c my father's check had bounced. Not so scary, but a bummer. My dad's bad mood before the eviction - was that the wolf? Tina, major apologies that I'm soooooo off topic.

  9. Tina lives for off topic and I suppose wolves are scarier when you live where they live, but no wolves here not for hundreds of miles, like say Minnesota.

  10. Okay, can I just say, I love it that we are back on wolves. Cannot get enough of the wolves! Even here in Minnesota where they all live.

  11. There's a small wolf refuge in MA that my nieces were disappointed I didn't want to visit. And a friend told me a non-happily-ever-after story about his husky that was 1/2 wolf. BUT... the movie Hoodwinked helped has descarify the wolf... And the howling outside Jackson Hole was stunning, but I was sleeping in tent.

  12. Robert- I think the tent + howling thing would scare me too. And a 1/2 wolf story might scare me too if I knew it. Not sure I want to. Ahhh, solace in Hoodwinked. And perhaps in Shiver as well. There is some scariness I guess. It starts that way but that is not what is lingering.
