OT Free download audio books
Hello, all-
Just a brief interruption to your various phobias and perversions to point out a few freebies. Naxos has a new audiobook download service. They've got some free excerpts available. In particular, I'd suggest the one from the Canterbury Tales- the Miller's Tale is particularly well done in modern English. It is one of Chaucer's bawdy ones, so I think you'd all enjoy it. http://www.naxosaudiobooks.com/ Crack open a bottle of cheap west Texas wine and enjoy! Bill (Dickens' Hard Times is available as well (abridged) but I hesitate to offend anyone's taste by suggesting it as well... :-) |

Bill (Dickens' Hard Times is available as well (abridged) but I hesitate to offend anyone's taste by suggesting it as well... :-) Pretty good, but I still prefer reading the books myself. Indeed, I still prefer reading paper books than reading them on the net. Odd, but sometimes the voices in these audio books just don´t gell with one´s own impressions of how they should be. For anybody who is even remotely interested in fishing, this might prove of some interest; http://dspace.library.cornell.edu/handle/1813/2707 TL MC |

Also if anybody is interested, I have an e-book version of the book by William F. Blades on fly tying. Unfortunately I have lost the link where I originally found this. If anybody wants a copy, just drop me a mail. TL MC |

Thanks, Bill. -- TL, Tim --------------------------- http://css.sbcma.com/timj/ |
