I had already read Moby Dick three times (once in a 25-hour reading marathon at the New Bedford Whaling Museum with a multitude of celebrity readers, including Teller, and ship's biscuit with grog), but William Hootkins's was the best! I never fully appreciated Melville's humor until listening to Hootkins! Now on to Harry Potter. I have read them all to my children, at varying speeds and states of wakefulness, but it's time to listen!

My daughter gets the glow-in-the-dark petunia--or at least a note that one will be on the way in the spring.

Firefly petunias! I want some, too, but even ordinary petunias don't seem to grow in my location. I hope that they can make a glowing poinsettia. Thanks for the link.
