"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adults—Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe—living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.

This might be the funniest license plate I’ve ever seen. Yes, that’s a bumper sticker of Saturn Devouring His Son on the right.
Pro-choice license place that says Trust Women, Respect Choice and is customized with EAT BABY. There’s a sticker next to it of the Francisco Goya painting Saturn Devouring His Son.

Working on author Christopher Nuttall's store was a great experience -- one I want to do for you! Interested in setting up an online bookstore or freshening up the one you have? Reach out to me on sonoraconsults.com and we'll chat.
Testimonial: Christopher G. Nuttall, Author “I engaged Sonora to design and construct an online bookstore for me. Communication was very good, we chatted back and forth about my requirements and the limits of the possible, then she put the store together and demonstrated how to use it. She was very responsive to my requests and concerns, and provided a great deal of support during the early days after the store went online. I highly recommend her services if you wish to set up an online bookstore – or any other online store – while lacking the skills and/or time to do it for yourself.”

@brianjayjones.com I was in Detroit recently and visited a used bookstore, and when I do, I always look for Washington Irving books. I found these — Tales From the Alhambra is from Europe and has pictures! And the sketchbook selections include the Christmas stories. Thought you’d like to see!

A dome, you say?
Cover for the Stephen King novel Under the Dome, a story about a small town in Maine (of course Maine) that gets trapped under a mysterious dome and quickly descends into MAGA-esque fascism.
