Yup. Tatnuck's in Westboro now. Funny thing is that I had never been to the one in Worcester. The weird thing about the release of the last book. Me and my son were at the mall in Millbury that morning and people were already lined up at Barnes & Noble. Seeing that we had to wait for my wife to come home from work, I figured we would be the LAST ones arriving at Tatnuck. We didn't get there until about 6 pm. We were the first ones there. Noone else showed up until about 7. By midnight it was wall to wall people. If we could've afforded it, we would've done the release party at Higgins Armory. Supposedly they had decorated it ala Hogwarts and it was a 'sleepover' release party. It sounded awesome but they wanted $140 per parent with one child and then it was another $20 for each copy of the book. It would've ended up costing us $360. I won' t make any comments about Deathly Hallows until you are through with it. Don't want to spoil it for you. The one in Worcester was great, I use to go there a lot while I was going to Worcester State. But since it's the same owners I bet the one in Westboro is just as good. I bet the Higgins Armory party must have been really cool. But that price tag,,,OUCH! Sad to say but I don't think I have ever been there. Growing up in the area you would think school would have taken us there on a field trip or something, but I can't remember ever going there. Anyway...as soon as I am done reading The Deathly Hallows I will let you know & we can dish about it. Sound good?

Speaking of children's books, have you ever read 'Walter the farting dog'? Fricking hilarious! ;D

That is one of the books in the series. The one I just recently read was 'Trouble at the Yard Sale'. In this one Walter foils a bank robber with his stanky gas.

I'll have to look out for those ones. I thought it was only the one. My other half hates books like that, he doesn't even like it when Em says fart. He likes her to say toot. Oh man, how we ever get along, I'll never know. ;D

Two of my boys here WON'T say toot or fart. They say "crap" no matter what I say or do. Luckily the other kids don't repeat it.

I'm only about 75 pages into it so far but am really interested in it. I saw Slash's book the other day at the store. I'm not a fan, so probably won't read it. Sounds like you're having a hard time getting through it.

It's a great book actually. I love to hear about the celebrity lifestyle and what bands were really like back then but I just don't have the time to read. Any spare second I have is taken up by that damn Wii. I'm thinking of unhooking it and getting a life.
