As a 50-year-old man, I know I’m hardly the intended demographic for “Twilight.” But my daughter had absolutely inhaled all four books in this series, so I decided I should at least read one of them to see what the attraction was. And — who knows? — maybe I might even enjoy it.

I’d often heard “Twilight” described as a “vampire book,” but that is really misleading. Sure, it does have vampires, which help add mystery and occasional flurries of action, but in its heart and soul “Twilight” is a simply a teenage romance. The two lovers, human Bella and vampire Edward, fall in love against all odds — just like Romeo and Juliet, just like Maria and Tony in “Westside Story,” just like many a star-crossed pair throughout the history of literature.

The attraction of this book to girls can be summed up in one word: Edward. He is, in Bella’s word, “godlike.” He is impossibly handsome, intelligent, mysterious, caring, and good at EVERYTHING. He comes to Bella’s rescue multiple times. Edward also does something rarely seen at that age (teenage boys, pay attention!) — he shows a genuine interest in Bella, asking all about her and actually listening to the answers.

I’m sure many girls who like the book also identify with Bella’s feeling of being an outsider, of being different than the crowd. (Sometimes I wonder: If everyone feels like an outsider, who are the insiders?)

While it’s obvious why Bella adores Edward, it’s not so clear why he is interested in her (besides the fact that her smell is alluring to a vampire). She is a disappointingly shallow character with virtually no interests outside her infatuation with Edward. Sometimes it’s hard to take her immature hand-wringing (He looked at me! He didn’t look at me! Why isn’t he looking at me?)

Author Stephenie Meyer writes smoothly and clearly, but the book needs some trimming. “Twilight” bogs down about halfway through, after Edward’s secret become clear and he and Bella settle in to overlong conversations fed by an un

With the shop vac micro cleaning kit I can use the power of my shop vac to clean out the inside of my computer case. I had been wasting money every month on cans of air to blow dust off the heat sinks and fan blades or just to clean the keyboard but this kit turns my shop vac into the ultimate computer cleaning machine.

The kit includes two extentions and two different sized brushes that also allow you to clean out a ps3, xbox 360 or vcr. The first time I cleaned my 360 it blew a huge dust cloud out all over. I couldn’t believe how dusty it was inside!

This kit pays for itself in the money it saves on canned air. I highly recommend it!

Forget paying outrageous prices for HDMI cables. This unit works every bit as well as the higher priced “brand”names. My daughter in law used to work for BEST BUY and they were told to push the cables as it was pure gold. Trust me- you WON”T be able to see a difference. I’ll NEVER buy anything else more expensive than these.
