The Glass Bead Game

My wife loved that.
I'm not a huge fan of Hesse though.

Yes, i loved it when i read it a long while ago. Piicked it up in a charity shop, been on my list of books to re-read for sometime.

Not a big fan either, although i think Sidhartha is great too.


Great book.  8)

I'm re-reading the Zelazny.
Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. 

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

Just started interesting so far.  If I wasn't so adverse to travel I'd like to see some of the ones they show from Europe
On a side note a bridge from my town to the next was rated one of the top ten new ones  in the country this past week by some architecture magazine

Trying to finish Saturday by Ian McEwan. This one really is in love with his own writing.

I have too any books going, right now. I usually manage to keep it to about five or six, but I am reading on nine different books.

I am so disorganized.

(that includes a Photoshop manual, though, which may not count)

Picked up a selection of tales from the arabian nights.
Never managed to get the complete one.  :-\

Might be stuff I haven't read in this one though.
