Here is that last Crusoe cover with Defoe's description. Very Dom-Sub

And rather racist. There are many other old versions where Friday, though clearly meant to be one of the native Taíno tribe, is shown as almost an African with black skin.

Very Strange. I have no idea what this is.

"Without clothes, you don't look like a secretary," he whispered.
But he was wrong. In her circle, it was the proper "uniform" for an ambitious career girl...

Don't pay a surgeon or hospital a fortune for something you can DYI

Another wise piece of advice from Poor Richard

I owned "Coffee, tea or me!"

 

[Praefectus Praetorio]

I owned "Coffee, tea or me!"

A book, no doubt inspired by CTorM came out as male Flight Attendants became more common.

"Just because she was dead, didn't mean she was useless"

Something I've wondered about for a long time

And its always been a daunting question, what devilment the Scots hide behind the Kilt?

Another Good DIY Tome

[connoisseurs]

A boisterous broadside of boobs, bottoms and bedrooms!
My kind of self-improvement.

I like that look. Hilarious!
Holds a mirror up to life - and likes what it sees!
That´s the right attitude.
A story of girls to whom death was the only hope!
Has a familiar ring to me.
She traded her body for her life!
On CF that is never a wise choice.

Airport Waiting Area Reading

There seem to be plenty of (bare) arms here

Who knows the plot - the cover's got me

Another children's tome to combat the scourge of underage drinking

From a review on Amazon:
JW has penned a novel about problems at a school that the student body feels they can run the school better than the staff and teachers. Well...that not what happened. Tanner voiced his opinion and they listened because he was the man who had landed the airplane after the pilot died. He also was tuned into politics and was up on current situations in the county and state. This is an excellent read for the genre.
I don´t think it is up to CF level.
