Congratulations! Indeed it is Undaunted Courage.

How many does that make now, Frybabe?

Frybabe · « **Reply #283 on:** July 07, 2010, 07:32:24 PM »

This famous author's career spanned over thirty years. This one happens to be my favorite of his writings (so far):

Mippy, once you picked your letter, no one wanted to upstage you. I'll pick one later if no one else does.

Mippy · « **Reply #288 on:** July 09, 2010, 11:18:17 AM »

Right, Pat! I knew that!

Frybabe · « **Reply #291 on:** July 09, 2010, 04:39:31 PM »

Sure, so easy that when I went to my desktop to retrieve it (after setting it up last night), I couldn't remember what it was. I guess things are working slowing today.

Frybabe · « **Reply #297 on:** July 10, 2010, 06:44:18 PM »

Must be the heat, Pedln. I was glad I gave a clue on mine. I almost forgot what I had put up and I didn't have it written down.

Oops! Didn't I say? It's a title.
