    I received this email:

    Craig,
    Me again, I emailed you a long time ago, to tell you about my novel, Tempting Faith DiNapoli. It's being published in three countries this summer, in the States, it's Simon and Schuster
    that's publishing it. I just wanted your club to know that a 1972 Comet plays a key role in the story and plot line. It was my grandpa's car, and if it does well, the book, I'm in the market
    for one myself.
    Can you get the word out to your members, and they can pre-order it on Amazon now.
    Sincerely,
    Lisa Gabriele

    Cool....a Comet in a novel.

    If the book is really good, they will make a movie out of it. If the movie is any good, Comet and Maverick's popularitywill skyrocket. Hollywood has that effect. Could be a good thing!!!

    Don't hold your breath...

    ...the producers will probably change it to an AMC Hornet
    or a Chevy Nova.
