We'll have to wait until April and see. I remember when the BBC were doing The Big Read, they had mass amounts of people reading the same book. Penguin also did something similar with the <a href="http://www.thewordproject.info/bigread/penguin.asp" rel="nofollow">7 Books 7 Cities</a> project. I heard a lot about them at the time, but I don't know if they were successful. What book(s) have you read in St. Paul? How are they picked? Would love to hear about it.

Would love to hear about it.

So phoney, so crappy, so full of the most unconvincing 'paranormal investigations' ever. Now, what I want to know is why you're watching ANTM? Skinny women in underwear or Tyra Banks raging insanity? I watched the last series and it was great, but I keep missing this one. As a ANTM fan, let me know what nights it's on and I'll try and go cold turkey on Most Haunted instead. Simon, I love it!
