[papayahed]

awwwww, are these my only choices? Can I start a write in campaign?

[Scheherazade]

I am afraid those were the only books nominated last month.

[papayahed]

I couldn't think of anything to write in anyways....

[Scheherazade]

Hey, keep going! :D
We will read it as soon as you finish it!

[papayahed]

Hey, keep going! :D
We will read it as soon as you finish it!


:lol: What I meant to say was that I couldn't think of anything to nominate :lol:

[Miranda]

What about The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold. This is cheat for me cos I am reading this right now and can't put it down...well not once I pick it up anyway.

Miranda

[Scheherazade]

Miranda for February we can only vote for the books stated in the poll. You can nominate that book for March reading if you like. There is a separate thread for that.

[Jay]

uhm... when is this poll going to be closed? ie, when do we know what book to read?

[Scheherazade]

It will be closed on 01-31-2005 at 02:53 PM. It is stated on top of the Poll ;)

[Jay]

Well, I remember I saw it somewhere BEFORE I voted, also could see who voted for what books, can't see that now though, and I know it was there before I voted.
:blush: ok, found the date, lol, ahem, still don't know why I can't see who voted for what book

[Scheherazade]

You can't see the results of the voting so far?

[Jay]

I can see the results...

[odin2]

I guess I will be joing the book club this month...
Voted for 'Lord of the Flies' by the way.

[Jay]

It will be closed on 01-31-2005 at 02:53 PM. It is stated on top of the Poll ;)

just an afterthought... for me it says: "This poll will close on 01-31-2005 at 03:53 PM" so you're going to close the poll sooner? :p lol, just kidding :D

[moriyah]

i voted... I hope Lord of the Flies wins! :D

[Scheherazade]

Going once...

[subterranean]

[Scheherazade]

Going twice is tomorrow! (counting down the last 3 days of voting :D)

[subterranean]

Can I do the counting for tomorrow please???

O please please please....

[Scheherazade]

Hey, you haven't even voted! ;)

[subterranean]

Cause I wont be able to participate, so I dont vote. Plus, I'm still mad at you for taking away my dream to be a Mod, so I WILL NOT VOTE
....................

[Scheherazade]

You are mad at me but you expect to do the counting??? :eek2:

[subterranean]

[Scheherazade]

Oh please... :bawling: won't do the trick! You remember I am a teacher, right?

[subterranean]

But it's not just please...look at me...i sheding tears..

[Taliesin]

Oh, sub. *sigh* You never learn, do you?
Don't you know that you have to attack people from their weak places to gain something?

*coughkitkatcough*
Sorry. It must be that cold again.

[Bongitybongbong]

Boy did I vote wrong.Who cares? :cool:

[Scheherazade]

Going twice...

[subterranean]

poll closed!!!!

[Jay]

rotflmao!!!!!!!!! :D:D:D:D:D
That's the advantage of time zones :p

[subterranean]

Indeed Jay...Indeed..I beat you Mrs. Schery..I defeated a teacher ..hah :nod:

[Jay]

Uhm... I beg to differ :p, it's not 03:53PM yet... not even for you :p
:angel:

[subterranean]

WHAT DO U MEAN?
tis 31-jan..well in the morning of course

[Jay]

This I mean ;): This poll will close on 01-31-2005 at 03:53 PM

[subterranean]

why 03:53 PM?

[Jay]

I have no idea whatsoever :D

[Scheherazade]

For me it says, 'This poll will close on 01-31-2005 at 02:53 PM' because that was the time I had set the poll up. So it counts exactly 30-31 days from the beginning of the poll. Since it will close automatically, we don't need to say it is closed either.

The poll is still open... for another 6 hours or so for those who would like to vote.

[subterranean]

going twice again??

[Jay]

Yup, for one more hour and a few minutes :p

[Scheherazade]

Gone!

"Lord of the Flies" by William Golding is our February book.

[Bongitybongbong]

Hooray!...

[Jester]

oh boy another book to read, lets see if the library has that one, but im still on portrait!!!! hmm, maybe ill have to skip this month! hope not ;)

[mono]

I have already read Golding's Lord of the Flies once, but it seems worth reading again for discussion (also considering that I voted for it).
Happy reading, everyone!

[Jester]

well portrait is like one fifty, yet i can seem to get passed fifty, too many other things to read, I'll get to flies but I may not be around to provide any insightful information when i get to it...
