Alcoholism is a grounds for divorce. Promiscuity is a grounds for divorce. Is Kindaholism recognized by the courts. What about the fight over custody of the Kindle. Visitation rights. This could really complicate our legal system!

My ex-husband didn't have any interest in my Longaberger baskets either...but he fought me for them.

Divorce is one thing, but what if I die? I'll leave my Gertie to the reader in the family, but will she have to send a death certificate to Amazon to get the registration changed to the beneficiary? On the other hand ... maybe I'll take it with me when I go.

I'm afraid my husband and I would fight over the tools and the pets. But I have my Kindle and he has his Sony Reader, no fight there.

Dear Gertie, If you get a 32 gig SD card, it could probably hold about 32,000 books. So don't give the Kindle to someone in your family when you die; load it up with 32,000 books and take it with you, reading for all eternity. Of course you might need to have a handy electrical plug put into the coffin with a lot of extra batteries.

My husband loves his trade magazines, so there would not be a fight.

My husband is not a reader so my Kindle will definitely go with me. I would get the dog too as he got him for me!

Since I live in the Sunshine State, that might work. Of course, it would have to stick up above the ground like a periscope and I'd probably need my book light as well. Heck, I think I'll just build myself a pyramid and take EVERYTHING with me.

Hubby dosen't read Kindle so that is safe. I told him if we ever divorce for grounds of not getting along and he was the one who wants out, I get everything and if I want out, he gets everything. Makes it easy to stay together that way.

That which does not destroy me-has made a fatal tactical error! You keep campaigning for a azz whoopin', you gonna get elected. It is not enough that I succeed. All who oppose me must fail. You're never too old if you can still cock your pistol.
