The Catholic girls love him in a hundred million different ways

By the way, if I haven't mentioned it strongly enough, you really really need to buy this Fratellis album. I skip almost everything else on my iPod at this point to listen to anything from this album.

You may have heard one of their songs in this iTunes ad.

Anyway, if you don't believe me, trust Charlie (see his Must List) or NPR.

This makes me sad

This woman is on NPR right now talking about her book, Without a Map about what happened in the 60's when she was 16 and became pregnant and suffered through horrible disapproval from her entire community, including her own family and even her doctor. I can't believe she didn't go totally nuts or kill somebody.

Anyway, it sounds like she eventually made out OK but it sounds like a pretty shitty time, that's for sure.

Really?

Thanks, very nice of you.

First, check my

Amazon.com wishlist

and there's no need to worry that I already have it or won't use it.

Tip: Check around for better pricing. Amazon's pricing is usually good, but not always the best available.

A quick Froogle search can't hurt.
