[Penguins-care] Man seeks used laptops to refurbish, give to students

[JUDI GALARDI]

what is Chadron and don't tell me to look it up.

 Here it is!  The moment you have been waiting for.  My latest book :Judi 
Galardi's  THRAE BACK ATCHA!  Edited By:Judith A. Galardi, M.A., M.Ed., 
MLIS, should be finished soon.  No, I don't know when.  It is for "tweens" and 
up.  Keep an eye on my website at: www.authorhouse.com, enter my name or book 
title for further information. AuthorHouse will be the first one to have copies 
so just hang in there.  It'll be finished before you know it.   (At least I hope 
so.)
