Hi!

Yeah, now I know to stop posting when I'm on drugs.  Affects the memory, not to
mention the syntax... :)

Mmh, yes, the TNW cover!  The Secret History cover never did much for me- but
then again, the book didn't, either (I read that when I wasn't all that much
into Kate- one wonders if this was actually better).

That's absolutely true.  It's a neat shot, but as far as losing respiratory
function, I still vote for the two I mentioned before.

Ooo, somebody dares to say that around here!  I hope for your sake Chris isn't
looking!  :)  Seriously though, I love my box set too, simply because I only
had three of her albums on original cassette and the others as dubs
beforehand.  I got the set for Christmas, and it was neat to finally have it
all on CD- European pressings too, as they were bought in Germany.  I do,
however, understand why everybody is bitching about having to get the whole
thing just to get the extra two CDs, but for me, I have no complaints (except
for the fact that the instrumental to RUTH isn't on TWW II- grrr).
