Im new to the forum and just wanted to introduce myself, i’m Sanjay . I’ve been lurking around the forum for quite some time looking up info but finally decided to make an account.

Thank you No Quarter for giving the gift of truth and sanity, 24/7, 365 days a year.

That’s an item I’d love to have for writing stories — the ability to grab a quote from a book, as text (I hope), and insert it into a story would be marvelous.

I.e., I’m assuming that if one can connect the Kindle to one’s computer, then one can transfer a few paragraphs from the book. As things are now, I can go into a book at Amazon’s site, and take screenshots — but it would be best to be able to add the section as pure text.

I bought some boots from Amazon (through the NQ link) — they arrived just in time for this huge snow storm.

People in this area do not do snow well. I had two years of snow combat training (grin) in Mass. — where ice storms hit first and then the snow. NASTY. Some people here drive with their right wheels on the shoulder — believing that they have better traction.

Let’s hope next year is a better one. But with bobo at the helm, it’s most likely to be more of the same.

Thank you, Noquarter, for providing this forum.

Have a wonderful holiday everybody and may your turkey be overflowing with stuffing and your cat/dog be stuffed to the gills with turkey.
