My brain is utterly fried lately, so I'm taking it easy.  Slogging through Bill Clinton's autobiography (still and forever...) and re-reading Gone With the Wind for about the millionth time.

Dawkins - God Delusion, up next Patrick O'Brian - Master and Commander , tonight my Sociology book.

Actually I am and will be listening to the first two books...  I listen to audio books at work.
I came to this world with nothing
and I leave with nothing but love,
everything else is just borrowed.

Fuck it, we'll do it live.

Gone with the wind is one of my 'comfort' books- something I read when I need cheering up.

Running with scissors.
it is well known that PMS Elle is evil.
I think you'd fit in a 12" or at least a 16" firework mortar
You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

Helliconia Summer - Brian Aldiss

Oh! Brilliant!

I'm amazed you were even  able to find that, unless you've had it on your bookshelves for a couple of decades-  or they've made a film of it. Aldiss and all the other old masters have been totally elbowed off the shelves by Terry Pratchett, so far as I can see.


Umm...I'm supposed to say what I'm reading now.  Errr...nothing much, unless you count surfing the web, and dipping into my poetry collection at random intervals (e.e. cummings  "selected poems " is my perennial favourite)

I look for books in charity shops. I have the rest of the Helliconia trilogy and shitloads of old Michael Moorcock books.  8)
