Re: Longview vs. Leander
Hey! I got an idea: Each Leanderite bring 5 cutouts to stage around you so it looks better for crowd pictures.

Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris
(...)
Me Talk Pretty was Mia’s book choice and, although I only read about half of it, I enjoyed it and do intend to finish.  (I’m still on this Henry the VIII train and I just can’t get off).  We Leanderites loaded up in one car and headed southy to Mia’s, where she had the most delicious meal prepared.
