Hmmm now I'm going to have to read those books (although I doubt our library has them, it's so small )anyway I looked up bilk and while the definition isn't very good (2. defraud ;cheat; decive) it sounds cool and would make a vey good insult (something like "loquacious fop" ) its also a good word for scrabble

How sad they don't have anything by Neil Gaiman (who's works I worship if you haven't noticed by now )
You could try doing a search, I think he has a website. I'm sure there is. . .

Coraline!!!
New Neil Gaiman book!!!
I believe in 5 days...maybe less, his latest book, Coraline is coming out. I'm REALLY excited...it looks very, very good. It's supposed to be a childrens book, but I say read it anyway. Supposedly adults find it to be really scary. Yay! here's the website about it: Coraline
