So, you have been to college and spell 'heard' (heared) very interesting. You didn't major in English I take it.

A pretty GGAY username, though.
When you spell gay in caps and put an extra g on it, does that mean you are spelling gay a new way? Don't know how to spell it? Or you think the username is a really Happy Name?

Or none of the above...Please explain!

Fascinating synopsis in wiki! Seems interesting, and I was a serious doubter when I headed over to check it out. Thanks for the tip!!

English is not his native language. I think he does pretty well.

Thank you I didn't know, would certainly explain how he can get something said, so mixed up.

If I were you, I wouldn't be highlighting the spelling and/or grammar mistakes of fellow posters...

Wow, I am so happy that a simple post from me has helped other readers to get interested in Cortázar.

Please PM me all of you who will read it, after you've done so, so we can exchange comments, ok?

You are lucky that the mod removed what you said about me in a certain thread, because I would have sent Feedback, and you would have been looking at a forum ban I am betting, LOSER!

There were others who saw it, and let me know about it, to bad the Mod was so quick in removing it, but was done to protect you, unless of course you got a warning for it, which would be something.

You obviously didn't get a forum ban for it, unfortunately.

If I were you, I would take some of your own advice that you like giving out. At least I didn't call him a moron or an idiot, like some people do to others, you know who I am talking about?

You still didn't answer my question on your GGAY spelling?

It was written by the Argentinian (IMO) literary genius José Cortázar (1914-1984), and I call it one of my favorites.

I could have posted this in culture forum, but I really want to encourage everybody to search the translation into your language and read it. You won't be disappointed.

Enjoy!
I have an English copy of this book if anyone wants to pay for the shipping. I am unloading a lot of my books and CDs and would be happy to donate it to someone who wants it.

I got about 40 pages into this book. It was promising but i just didn't have the time or motivation to finish it. It is quite epic.

EDIT - Or we can talk trade if you got something good!

My Favourite book is Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and my mommy reads three pages to me every night before beddy boos. Sometimes she reads four pages!
