Have you done the round of epic classics yet? War and Peace Les Miserable Tail of Two Cities Fall and Decline of the Roman Empire Oh, btw what are you doing at sea? Quote
sirwoofalot Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Oh, I am between books just now, I am reading a series called Raising Dragons, and waiting for the final installment(s) of the heritance series. In the mean time I am going back and picking up some short stories, like “Old Man and the Sea”, and “Of Mice and Men”. For Whom the Bell Tolls Quote
sirwoofalot Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Tail of Two Cities sounds hot I thought you were always quoting War and Peace. I never read either. I did complete Les Misribles. Quote

tvashtarkatena Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 (edited) I just read Sports Illustrated's "This is Raquetball", the 1979 edition. Hard hitting. Gripping. A tremendous amount of male body hair. Edited January 17, 2008 by tvashtarkatena Quote
Sherri Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 I just read Sports Illustrated's "This is Raquetball", the 1979 edition. Hard hitting. Gripping. A tremendous amount of male body hair. All that hair must get in the way of the balls. Quote
blurpy Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 currently reading 'After the Ice' by mithen. a fascinating and very readable synthesis of current archaeological work worldwide, 20000-5000 BC. Quote
lummox Posted January 17, 2008 Author Posted January 17, 2008 actually, a lot of the periodicals on board offer pictures instead of extensive text. Quote
