People think that the King James Version of the Bible is Old English, but no, it's a variation on Modern English.

Even though my name will come up as Karen Tamara, this is Tamara (from One Magic Bean Buyer) I started a new blog with my CP, hence the new name. <br /><br />Anyway, I haven't read these books but it sounds like a super interesting topic. Nice to see you again.

Seems lots of folks have changed their minds. I just made 15 visits for the other blog I entered and close to half had no post, were out dated etc. Irritating. So, I thought..."not another one!". Was just beginning to think I was wasting my time when you said April's fool. Not a fan, but glad you enjoy it. I actually don't enjoy reading all that much. Tend to only read books on vacation...love reading blogs though???Go figure. lol.Sandyhttp://oozingoutmyears.blogspot.com/2013/04/animal-lovers.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1513826534477780868.post-1772269905038837642013-04-01T09:28:06.306-04:002013-04-01T09:28:06.306-04:00Ooh, I love your theme!
