[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry to go off topic, but has your wife actually read the book Auntie Mame?  As good as the movie was (with Rosalind Russell) the book is even more hilarious!  It would make a good present ...  ;)[/quote]

I actually don't know if she has read Auntie Mame, but the musical is one of her favorites (we are both musical theater performers).  She was in the show many years ago.

Alas, buying her the book is not a great option for us now.  My wife is visually impaired and reading is difficult.  She has to read a lot for work so I bought her a 32-in monitor so that she can use zoomtext to help her read but outsize of that, bills, forms, etc, she no longer reads for entertainment.  For entertainment we get her audiobooks and the audiobook version of of Auntie Mame is out of print.  Used copies are over $200, so it's not likely that I'll be able to get her this soon.  I used to get some books in print and read to her, but we haven't done that since out toddlers were born.  Maybe in another few years, it would be a good gift...

But it was a very thoughtful idea.  Thanks![/quote]
