Johnny Smith is an ordinary young man with a talent for teaching and a new girl. As he takes Sarah to a carnival, life looks good. But a few hours later an accident slams Johnny Smith into a coma that will last four and half years, and a lot can change in four and a half years.
When Johnny wakes up, his girl, his career, and his youth are gone. But the tragedy of his loss is nothing compared to the horror of his gain. For Johnny Smith can now scan the minds, the pasts, and the futures of certain others through a single touch. It is a gift he does not want and a fate he cannot escape.
King's creepy story was the basis of a 1983 movie starring the equally creepy Christopher Walken.

Alan Shepard, Jr. (1923 – 1998) was an American naval officer and aviator, test pilot, flag officer, one of the original NASA Mercury Seven astronauts, and businessman, who in 1961 became the second person and the first American to travel into space. This Mercury flight was designed to enter space, but not to achieve orbit. Ten years later, at age 47 and the oldest astronaut in the program, Shepard commanded the Apollo 14 mission, piloting the lander to the most accurate landing of the Apollo missions. He became the fifth and oldest person to walk on the Moon, and the only astronaut of the Mercury Seven to walk on the Moon. During the mission, he hit two golf balls on the lunar surface.

Showing a photograph of a "Vancott", a moveable cottage, proposed as a solution for countryside labourers. This didn't catch on.

Caravanning & Camping Out by J. Harris Stone
The author was the founder of The Caravan Club, in 1907. It's a very readable book, and depicts the very earliest days of caravanning when they were towed by horses and only a few hundred people (if that) had one. These early caravans bore most resemblance to the romanticised images of gypsy caravans of the past, although some looked like cottages on wheels! It's a fascinating read, and there are plenty of pictures. It evokes a lot of nostalgia for a time when there were almost no cars on the road and caravans like this could meander about the countryside and stop anywhere.
The book is old enough that there is no date in anywhere, so I searched about the net to find out about it. Google was in fact unsuccessful - it came up with a few reference to the revised 1931 edition, and an American 1914 edition, but not the one I have. To the British Library! After a few searches there, I pinned it down. It's a first edition, 1913, published by Herbert Jenkins, London (the publisher I knew, but not the date). This is the only reference I've been able to find to this edition on the net. Given that the few references to the 1931 edition I've seen are quoting $70-90 and the 1914 American editions are quoting $100 - $250, I would imagine this one is significantly more valuable... It's in pretty good condition too (although, having said that, one edge of the spine cloth has split from opening it to take the pictures :( oops! It was pretty fragile). Also, it looks more green than blue to me, but it's hard to tell - it's faded a lot.
The text itself is out of copyright, and can be read in full here.

First thing that I noticed when I opened this (rather nice) window box is that both the Sword of Judgement and Sentinel Shield are missing the silver paint applications they are sporting on the back of the box. Not a good way to make a first impression, toy.
So Ruby's my favourite Rainbow High doll from Series 1. I wish I'd ordered more from Amazon on initial release, because the first few sent were all first edition Rubys. These had much prettier face-ups with less defects and thicker hair. I ended up keeping and deboxing two, and was later dismayed to find the ones sent to New Zealand stores were all re-release Rubys.
I really wanted to display at least one "perfect" first edition Ruby still new in her box, so I resorted to Ebay. Price was 3x more than what I'd pay locally, but it's so worth it because she's absolutely gorgeous! I feel all excited and jittery every time I see her on my shelf x').

Why, yes, this 279-page book is indeed a signed, first edition copy of Monica's Story. And, yes, it is signed by Monica Lewinsky.
We keep it on a shelf in our library right between our copies of My Life by Bill Clinton and Living History by Hillary Clinton. Heh.

Day three of my first December Diary...
Today is my sister Lita's birthday!
She LOVES old American cars...
While I was living in London she bought a 1970 Chrysler Newport.. which she still owns.
I had spotted this Plymouth Fury on the Kings Road in Chelsea where I used to work...
so went back to take this shot for her!
The other shot on the left is Sloane Square! %-)
Better viewed large Although the old 'neg film' prints are a little fuzzy %-)
