...want," cautions Joan Bennett of Indianapolis, Ind., who with her husband Dick owns a 13-week share in Hilton Head. "To be sure of getting a place you want, you should start working on it six to eight months ahead of time," advises retiree Mike Parker, who with his wife Dottie owns three time-shares...
...pilots. Though the passenger jet's exterior appeared intact, its cockpit windows were obscured by what looked to be a "light coat of frost." Over the next two hours, four other F-16s shadowed the plane. By then, the roving aircraft had made the news. Stewart's Australian-born wife Tracey heard it on a TV news report and tried in vain to call her husband on his cell phone.

One problem is that adapter Richard Nelson has moved the pivot of the story--a song that stirs memories in Gabriel's wife (Brown) of a long-dead boy who once loved her--to earlier in the evening, thus throwing off the rhythm of the piece.
