REMINDERS FOR OUR READERS

We get a fair number of e-mails from folks who have been assigned utterly nonintuitive names by their free e-mail programs--Bob54763452@aol.com. But we have a free brothersjudd.com e-mail domain that you're welcome to partake of. It's totally private--we have no access to your account--and we have few enough users that you're not unlikely to be able to just use your own first name or name and last initial. I just use that account and access it via POP in gmail, so nearly all junk mail is filtered out and the email address is simplicity itself: orrin@brothersjudd.com Write us if you'd like the Other Brother to set up an account for you.

If you like British Television and use bit torrents, we still have a couple invites to The Box to give away.

It's a good way to get rid of stuff you're never going to read, listen to or watch again. Or, you can do what I do: buy stuff you find at book sales and thrift stores and trade it for the stuff you really want but are too cheap to pay full price fo, I just got a harcover copy of The Looming Tower at PaperbackSwap and a full season Xena Warrior Princess at DVD Swap:
