Joel Osteen - Amazing Books! I love them all! lol! #JoelOsteen #God #Jesus #PowerOfPrayer

Oh, man, I looove Joel Osteen!  I love him!  His books are amazing, so inspiring, so uplifting, it's like I just can't get enough of Joel Osteen! lol!  I started with Break Out!, then I read It's Your Time (fantastic!), and now I'm reading Become a Better You (soo wonderful, so sweet!). I just can't say enough good stuff about Joel Osteen's books - they're so wonderful, and you'll feel so great about yourself, about your life, about where you're headed, what kind of greatness is in frot of you, what kind of great abundance is coming into your life.. I love this stuff!  It's so uplifting! hahaha!

Now I want everyone to read Joel Osteen's books - I would love to see them in every school library, lots of copies so all the kids have easy access to these life-changing books and thoughts. And I know it's very Christian-based, of course, and there's a big movement to remove religion from the schools, but, come on, has that really helped anyone? Meaning the students, not the adults in a big knot about religion... just present ALL the religious and non-religious views, let the kids decide for themselves, but so many kids aren't getting the messages of hope, messages of understanding, messages of great abundance coming into their lives, and I don't think that's helping the next generations. These kids are floundering, and that's not fair to them. I'm sure this is not politically correct, but you know, I think a lot of the political correctness out there has removed too many important works of art, works of literature, books of great influence, right out of the hands of our students. That whole thing where God Forbid you have a book in a school library, a book that is a great piece of literature, with any kind of swearing in it, because certainly we can't expose our children to that - ugh. Puh-leeease. That's ridiculous. We need to man up on this one, put great books in the hands of kids - for free. Let them choose whatever they want to read - can you imagine if we had grown up in this very cloistered new environment - it's too much Big Brother (is George Orwell still allowed in the school library?? Ugh!  Makes me so mad.) How dare the schools limit our children's growth by pre-determining what they can and cannot have access to at school. I don;t like it. The whole notion of Freedom of Thought starts early, and is very keen through the teen years, so we want to let our kids grow as much as possible, be exposed to all sorts of great books - then you'll create lifelong learners - show kids that books are wonderful, fabulous, amazing, uplifting, and will open brand new worlds to them - that's the key to a better society, and higher learning.

Well, I'm not sure how I went so far off-course, there, so-to-speak, when, really, I just wanted to say how much I love all the books by Joel Osteen, and I hope everyone gets a chance to read them! lol!  You'll love them!  We'll all grow in abundance, together! lol! Happy Reading (anything you want! lol!)! Ailsa xox

Mr. Burns reads Tina Fey's Bossypants on The Simpsons, tonight! lol! #TinaFey #Bossypants #TheSimpsons

 Oh, what beautiful hands you have... the better to hold a book with, mah' dear : )


This is hilarious! I just watched The Simpsons, Them, Robot (2012), and wouldn't you know it, Homer runs to Mr. Burns' house(trying to escape the robots he has, in some way, irritated (lol!), and finds Mr. Burns reading Tina Fey's Bossypants.... hilarious!

I just read Bossypants, and it was sooo funny, I couldn't stop reading it -- was up 'til 4:30 A.M. on Friday night, just to finish it!  Was soo funny!

We are huuuge Simpsons fans (I wrote 3 Simpson spec. scripts in the 90's, and just recently my little man, Aidan, and I started watching all the old 30 Rock shows... hilarious. We love Tina Fey, and then Cara got me Bossypants for my birthday.... was such a great read!

Plus, Tina Fey's hands are so pretty and delicate on the cover... you'll laugh when you see it : )

But Tina Fey's Bossypants was one of THE funniest books I've read in a long time -- Wanda Sykes had such a funny book years, ago, and I looove the old Erma Bombeck books (remember those??  If Life is a Bowl of Cherries, What am I doing in the Pits? I think that was one of the titles, but anything you can find by Erma Bombeck is hilarious.. and Ellen Degeneres... omg, Ellen's books are soooo funny, laugh-out-loud funny... so if you haven't picked it up, yet, or borrowed it from a friend, or put it on your Kindle... I think you get the point, there... you'll loove Bossypants -- hilarious read!
