Stuff I Remember

Post by lorin »

My father drew a book. He sketches and writes about his life growing up in the Bronx. My brother got it published as a gift for his 80th birthday. The entire book can be previewed if you can enlarge your screen, so no need to buy it, but if you can leave a comment on the book site for him to read that would be cool.

Looks great, is there a way to zoom in? Can't read the writing...

I enlarged the screen. You can do that on Macs by dragging two fingers on the pad but not sure about those nasty PCs.

I figured it out. Look on the right hand side at the icon with the four arrows pointing in different directions. It will make it full screen.

I had done that, and it was still too small, but your post made me remember that I, too, can emlarge my screen up to 400%. It's late... :biggrin:

So cool.
"People without hope not only don't write novels, but what is more to the point, they don't read them.
They don't take long looks at anything, because they lack the courage.
The way to despair is to refuse to have any kind of experience, and the novel, of course, is a way to have experience."
-Flannery O'Connor

"In spite of much that militates against quietness there are people who still read books. They are the people who keep me going."
-Elisabeth Elliot, Preface, "A Chance to Die: The Life and Legacy of Amy Carmichael"

I remember the Alamo.
Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion


I'm afraid there's no denying
I'm just a dandelion
a fate I don't deserve.

I barely remember what I.....oh wait I forgot.

long winters longer
than time can remember"

the proud sons and daughters
that knew the knowledge of the land
spoke to me in sweet accustomed ways"
