READY FOR THE TEEN ROMANCE OF THE CENTURY? SINK YOUR TEETH INTO THIS ...
NEW OFFICIAL TRAILER:
NOTE: New fan-made one further down plus wallpapers if you'd like a Twilight background
Twilight ... 
In the small town of Forks, Washington, a young girl is about to endure the hardship of what is our modern Romeo and Juliet. Bella Swan is about to start her new life as a junior ... in a new school and in a new town. When she moves to be with her father, she expects days of rain, school and the reality that she is going to be alone ... until she sees him ... the boy with the auburn hair and the most beautiful attributes anyone could have, possibly too much for a human to have. With his porcelain skin, golden eyes, mesmerizing voice and supernatural gifts, Edward is both irresistible and impenetrable.
But Edward - the one who aches for every drop of her blood, and the one who watches her every move from the shadows - is a vampire and the closer they get, the more Edward must struggle to resist the primal pull of her scent, which could send him into an uncontrollable frenzy.
This romance between mortal and vampire becomes our Romeo and Juliet. But what Bella doesn't realize is the closer she gets to him, the more she is putting herself and those around her at risk, and it might be to late to turn back.
Deeply romantic and extraordinarily suspenseful, Twilight captures the struggle between defying our instincts and satisfying our desires. This is a love story with bite.

Wesley the Owl: The Remarkable Love Story of an Owl and His Girl (non-fiction) by Stacey O'Brien External Link (search.barnesandnoble.com)
Written with the same heartwarming sentiment that made the memoir Marley & Me a runaway bestseller, biologist and owl expert Stacey O'Brien chronicles her rescue of an adorable, abandoned baby barn owl -- and their astonishing and unprecedented nineteen-year life together.
Stacey O'Brien is trained as a biologist specializing in wild-animal behavior. She graduated from Occidental College with a BS in biology and continued her education at Caltech. Stacey now works as a wildlife rescuer and rehabilitation expert with a variety of local animals, including the endangered brown pelican, owls, seabirds, possums, and songbirds. She lives in Southern California.

Internet Explorer tabs: There is a way on Internet Explorer to make more than one tab come up automatically when you sign on. Click on Tools at the top, then Internet Options. In the top box, it shows the home page of the page that comes up automatically. On a separate line in that box, type the website address for another site and that will pop up automatically too. Put it on the line directly below the other one ok?

FUNNY STORY: My friend told me a funny story at work today. Got the link to it and have uploaded it in the news section. Here it is: External Link (www.spogg.com) Please rate it while you're there by clicking on the number you feel best suits it in the lower right corner. May you howl with laughter as much as we did.

SCARY CHAIN LETTER: Some of you may have received a scary chain letter. (A chain letter is when it says something like "Please forward this to 20 people at the end and it's against the Site Rules to send chain letters.) If you did receive one, the person who created that either didn't realize how much it would scare children, or they have a sick sense of humor. IT IS NOT REAL! So please don't take it to heart ok? Nothing is going to happen to you or your family if you do not forward it. It's pretend. As it is against the rules, if you do forward it and someone reports you, you will get a warning or your chat blocked (goofy, but it's the rule ... sigh) plus you may scare someone else with it so please don't send it.
