You dirty old sleaze-bags are skating on incredibly thin ice. Soon there will be actual legislation in place to prevent one having any sort lurid thoughts about the opposite sex, let alone actually going so far as to offer verbal compliments or praise. It's going to be known as the Proudman Bill.

From now on, all citizens, creepy or otherwise, cannot think or say anything nice or remotely suggestive to anyone of an opposite sex without first co-signing a formalised legal document.

Yep, start looking only at your shoes, shuffle your feet when you walk and don't you dare lift your head up, because it is inappropriate. Sounds like a futuristic vision in a novel.

As I discussed this with my mother yesterday, she opined that sooner or later we will all have to walk around with sticky tape over our mouths, however that would not help when we all develop a ubiquitous capability of reading each other's minds...

As most people were likely suspecting, more has come out. Why am I not the slightest bit surprised:

I have no too many hopes of striking the great bell of fame over there, but just to be in those shells is something to be satisfied about.
The novel is called "Una novela Rosa", something like " a pink novel", in reference to the Rosie novels written by specialist about love and all that for women consumption.
We will see how it goes...

Fern,

wish you a lot of success in Espana! I have no doubt you'll succeed because the novel is about love and consumption of women, two of your distinctive traits :) Hush, hush.

Women in love regards,
