Find out the New York Times best sellers for the week of your birth. I’ve read none of the books on my list, but I’ve heard of a couple of the non-fiction ones:

• The Power of Positive Thinking by Norman Vincent Peale
• Abraham Lincoln by Carl Sandburg

Have you heard of any of the books on you list? Read any of them?

The only one I heard of was Armageddon by Leon Uris, and I'm pretty sure my parents had the book, but I never read it.

I subscribe to Letters of Note, so I know the answer to that one. I loved that post.

Hey, Becky, is that captcha spammy thing on your posts part of squarespace?

Yes. It just showed up one day. I'm not sure whether it's always there or not because when I comment on my own blog, I'm usually signed in and don't get it.
