1. Why do you think of the first line of the novel, "It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife" such a well known line? How do you interpret this?
2. What makes Mr. Darcy such a charismatic and charming character that leaves practically every woman drooling after finishing the book?
3. Elizabeth makes the following observation to Jane: "You never see fault in anybody. All the world are good and agreeable in your eyes. I never heard you speak ill of a human being in my life." What is dangerous about never seeing fault in anyone?

Pride and Prejudice... the beginning
The beginning of a discussion about Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice...
This is open to anyone who wants to read and discuss. Also feel free to add any questions or comments that may arise. Answer at your own pace and happy reading!
Pride and Prejudice was originally entitled First Impressions. It was written between 1796 and 1797, and heavily revised before its publication in 1813. It is a rich social commentary in which Austen sets her entertaining study of manners and misconceptions against the backdrop of a class-contentious society in 18th century England - Norton Critical Editions

Dancing...
While in Richmond, VA for Music Therapy Conference, Cheila, Danielle and I were watching the news as we were getting ready to start our day. We heard this unbelievable news story which recounted the plight of a several bars in Chesterfield County that are prohibiting dancing! In fact there is a $2500 fine if anyone is observed to be dancing! Sounded like a modern day "Footloose" to me, but Bob had this to say...
"Do you like to dance?
Are you not able to dance at your local bar?
Are the authorities threatening to fine you $2500?
If so contact me, Bob Heminhaw at:
www.youcandanceifyouwantto.com
That's Bob, H-E-M-I-N-haw at youcandanceifyouwantto.com
Operators are standing by!"
PS. Bob speaks with a thick New England accent.

That's right! I am changing, revamping and even rediscovering my blog. (Thank you Lady Redundant Woman). Chris and I have created a character named Bob Heminhaw. He is based on the man who does the commercials for Oxy-Clean, but he tries to sell or come up with a solution for EVERYTHING.
I have decided to place a few of Bob's commercials on here. Let me know what you think...
