    Hi, mattyj. I haven't clicked on villadrive's link above, but I have a feeling s/he won't mind (or maybe even notice) if I just go right on ahead and highjack this thread. :rolleyes: ;) :D How're you liking The Corrections?

    What books have you read more than once?

    I completely forgot to mention the ones that I keep buying more copies of so that I can give them away: 1. Illusions, Richard Bach 2. Emmanuel, Pat Rodegast 3. The Seth Material, Jane Roberts I consider the above to be essential road maps to life. :D

    What books have you read more than once?

    I'm going to give The Outlander series a try if it's that good. :) I reread A. S. Byatt's Possession at least once, and now I'm rereading To the Lighthouse. I'm going to continue to reread The Corrections until I finally grow out of it, which I sincerely hope not to do.

    Mickey Spillane

    It's always a weird feeling when somebody dies and you had assumed that of course they'd died a long time ago. Boy did I ever love those old paperbacks. I would purloin a couple of my stepmother's Camels and sneak off with one of her Mike Hammer books. A common literary "coming of age" back...

    what do you do?

    Congratulations, MC. I know you will excel in whatever you end up doing. Also, we could use a good psychologist around here. :)

    Greetings...

    It's good policy to be downright forthright around here, Shelly. ;) We do have special threads intended for the offering up our works of art.

    Dogmatix and a lion

    Omigosh! That is so great! Thank you so much, dogmatix! I loved it that you were all cooing and patting him the whole time. I'm on dial-up, so it took real determination to watch that procedure -- but it was so worth it!

    Vladimir Nabokov: Look at the Harlequins!

    This is wonderful! VN the tease and jokester at his best, and perhaps a peek into what the initial concept of Lolita may have looked like when she was still just a twinkle in VN's eye..

    Vladimir Nabokov: Look at the Harlequins!

    This sentence still reads like a koan to me: It's -- it's what you might call ambiguous.

    Vladimir Nabokov: The Enchanter

    tomato's behavior in this instance says much about tomato and reveals nothing at all about Nabokov. One is left to wonder what tomato was google-ing in order to find this place in the first place. Moto's site has some pretty expressive emoticons on it and he's not even there to guard them...

    Vladimir Nabokov: The Enchanter

    tomato I am going to assume that you continue to lurk. The very least thing that you can do is to reply to Peder's thoughtful and well-researched responses to your -- to your post. Or are you only a hit-and-run tomato, thrown helter-skelter from the back of the peanut gallery?

    Vladimir Nabokov: Look at the Harlequins!

    page 169 Never in his wildest did VN ever dream that we would someday (a mere thirty-odd years later!) be able to do this and: this :D and this: ra·ceme (r! s"mÆ, rÃ-), n. Bot. 1. a simple indeterminate inflorescence in which the flowers are borne on short pedicels lying along a...
