An amusing anecdote
* So I do not want to get into the habit of writing personal stories on here, nor do I expect to. But this was too amusing to not mention here.
Yesterday I was on the subway and I looked down to see what the woman sitting in front of me was reading. Imagine how happy I was to see a familiar hardback paper cover: A Prisoner of Birth by Jeffrey Archer! I really liked that book, so I was happy to see someone else reading it. As I tried to figure out what section she was reading (yes, I am a nosy person on the subway), I noticed some discrepancies. Primarily, her book had graphs and pictures. There are no pictures in A Prisoner of Birth. And then I looked closer at the text that she was actually reading... and saw one heading.
The benefits of Kegel's.
Needless to say, she was most definitely not reading the book that I thought she was reading. Good thing I investigated before I told her something like "That book is fantastic!" and then tried talking plot points with her...
