Don't we have this same thread like every month?

 

I just finished THE FORTRESS OF SOLITUDE by Jonathan Lethem.

Next I am gonna read some John M Ford book from the 1980's, or reread PERDIDO ST STATION by China Mieville. I need a couple of 400 page specials for next week when I go off to logging camp to get me through the long nights with nothing to do but talk logger.

So what's your point? High percentages make it okay?

IMO tri (or any other relatively-low-$-return sport) is a stupid way to make a living. Double that if ya have to sacrifice your future health in order to eat.

i need more quality in my life. thumbs_up.gif

 

that any good? keep hearing about it. Is it in paperback?

 

I just read Fred Moody's "Seattle and the Demons of Ambition : A Love Story". It's OK, but it's more about Fred Moody than Seattle. Not worth the hard cover price I paid. Before that it was Fight Club. Shockingly, the movie is better.
