I confess that this second novel "Running Of The Bulls" by Christopher Smith is totally enthralling. I really enjoyed it. His "Bullied" series is top notch too.
Mr. Smith in conjunction with the release of "Running Of The Bulls" is giving away a new iPad2 64GB with Wi-Fi + 3G.

Lance Armstrong
I don't suppose anyone out there cares what I think. I'm just an old woman who lives in a small town in southern Ohio. But, I am a big fan of Lance Armstrong, Team RadioShack & pro cycling. So... I say this. Let's do something else with our tax dollars. Let's do something else with our time. Let's cure cancer, or create jobs, or house the homeless OK!!! I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE ALLEGATIONS. This man has done more for cancer research & cancer survival than anyone I know. Let's look at the BIG PICTURE shall we. Lance Armstrong is my HERO. Lance Armstrong is the MAN. Hands down. No doubt. I BELIEVE in him & his cause.

YAPPING DOGS
This story is for Jason with undying gratitude, and for Donna who loves her Buddy.
My new neighbors, who apparently are trailer trash renting a house now, have 2 yapping small dogs.
They bark incessantly, sometimes for 45 min to an hour, and the owners do nothing except sit in their house and listen to them.
This has gone on now for a couple months, and you have no idea the things I have been thinking.
Call the police??? Confront them??? Or, dare I say it, POISON!!!! Yes, I was being pushed to the edge!!
Well, I talked to my son about this and he suggested I get a dog whistle. Kids say the darnest things.
I thought how the heck is that gonna work. I checked out my options on the internet. Bought a dog whistle.
Low and behold it works. When they start barking, I blow the whistle and tell them "NO". They stop barking right away.
The quiet is wonderful. Can't wait to open the pool. At least I will be able to sit in the back yard & enjoy my summer.
Would I have poisoned those dogs? NO, but the thought did cross my mind. Several times.
You work hard all your life, finally get a home, the things you want and some asshole spoils it for you.
I think not.
People need to show respect for their neighbors. I DO NOT ALLOW MY CAT to roam the neighborhood and crap in other peoples yards.
I respect my neighbors and demand the same from them. It is the right thing to do.

BULLIED - Book One by Christopher Smith
Downloaded the book this evening for 2 reasons.
First - I'm a fan of Chris' first novel "Fifth Avenue", his WeekinRewind website and his FaceBook pages.
Second - He has some pretty awesome giveaways too.
Seth Moore, a pimply faced kid who has been bullied all his life, is about to face his biggest challenges. This won't be easy for Seth. But with help from his new friends and an amulet, things are going to change for him in a big way.
Are his new friends really "friends"? How is going to overcome all the years of hate and degradation?
Will Seth become a better person or turn out to be as evil as the people bulling him?
This series gives an inside look at what it is like to be bullied and to be the one doing the bulling. There is tension and drama. There is love and redemption.
I can't wait to find out. I really liked this book. I want MORE and I want it NOW.
That being said, I highly recommend this book. Move over Dean Koontz and Stephen King.

Don't let this one slip away.
