Thanks for the information on this Freebie. However, am I the only one who would REALLY, REALLY like to read a book about the literal power of rubber bands and the roles they play in our lives? --- as opposed to rubber bands who are leaders? This could be a very funny title if it actually concentrated on the uses and abuses of rubber bands. (I was one of those individuals who always liked to pop a rubber band on someone's arm. It didn't win me very many friends....) Don |

If the person could not take the stinging pain and the residual welt, then you probably wouldn't want them for a friend anyway. Now if you shot them in the eye with a rubber band from a hastily made ruler rifle, then I could understand their avoidance of you.

I thought is was actually about rubber bands. I'm not joking But I did think it was a little odd.

Actually, the reason I made fun of this is that I, too, thought it was really about rubber bands and the role our rubber friends have played in history. I'm not joking! Don |

Good to know I'm not alone
A short précis might have been a good idea, given the title. |
