Finished the "Gunslinger" again today. Probably the 15th time I've read it. It gets better every time.

Is that a picture book?

Also, by the sounds of it, you're not spending a bunch of time campaigning. Good to see you've accepted defeat before it's even come. ****in' wuss.

It's actually a pop-up book, which >'s regular picture books. Suck on that.

Also, I'm not losing.

Yes, yes, yes! This is old news, it seems, but I just found it:

The Dark Tower: The Wind Through the Keyhole is an upcoming novel by Stephen King. As part of The Dark Tower series, it will be the eighth Dark Tower novel, but, according to King, chronologically set between volumes four and five. First mentioned by King in 2009, after the series had been announced as concluded in 2004 with the publication of the seventh novel, it was announced on the author's official site on March 10, 2011. It is scheduled to be published in the spring of 2012.

The major story of Roland and his ka-tet was told, but I realized there was at least one hole in the narrative progression: what happened to Roland, Jake, Eddie, Susannah, and Oy between the time they leave the Emerald City (the end of Wizard and Glass) and the time we pick them up again, on the outskirts of Calla Bryn Sturgis (the beginning of Wolves of the Calla)?

Words cannot express the moistness in my loins right now.

no, I think the words were pretty clear on that

It was a Terry Brooks Shannara novel. Now I'm reading Sideways, and about to buy the sequel- Vertical.

Some pretty good rants. Pretty good for a chuckle.

I just read the first two Dresden Files novels. Good times. Looking forward to reading more of them when I have the time.

The good : His rants on US politics, The Middle East, and Palestine specifically.
The bad: His rants on global warming and economics. Socialist + Uber Greenie rants make for a bad combo.

Far more good than bad though since his main focus is geopolitics/humanitarian. 8/10.

The Cat in the Hat, it was pretty awesome... again.
I love it when the mess gets cleaned up in like 5 seconds, it's pretty amazing.
I still don't like Thing 1 and Thing 2, but the other things are pretty cool.
The Fish in the Bowl is a drag, and those kids are pretty indecisive.
Nobody should let a cat walk allover them like that.

I also think it's pretty amazing that the things could fly a kite in the house, but unrealistic.
I've tried it numerous times, each time... epic fail.

OK, so you don't like Thing 1 and Thing 2, but do you like green eggs and ham?

I would read it on a train, I would read it in the rain, I would read it here or there, I would read it anywhere.
I do so like green eggs and ham, I do so like them Moe I Am.
