Hi Toby - you said just how I feel about all the people who post at ATRW. I too have pictures in my mind of what they look like, how they live, etc. I'm even able to know who has posted something before I get to the bottom where there name is just by their style of "speaking". It would really be wonderful to meet them all some day but in the meantime, this thread is the next best thing. It reminds me of reading books versus watching TV. You get to use your imagination.
Take care, Toby - I love your posts and have a visual of you in my mind.
If I see the movie before I've read the book, I like the book better because I get to cast the characters "better". Exception: Gone With the Wind.....perfect casting and some, but not tooooooooo much left out.
