Nobody in my family reads like I do, so books will not make great presents. I have however requested Borders certificates from my family :)

At this very moment I'm listening to Common "The Light", it's on repeat. I love it. I'm writing and it helps to keep the mood.

my t.v. So, nobody caught any of the 3 episodes of Smith? CBS cancelled it after three episodes, when I thought it was doing great! Anybody else on Smith? Also, another CBS flop, which I really enjoyed and thought it would do well also was "Twenty Good Years"....did anybody catch that one...

Life of Pi ~ Why you should read the intro. An example of WHY you SHOULD read the intro, is Life of Pi by Yann Martel. I skipped it and was completely comfused at times. When I finished the book I decided to read it and it explained alot. I then went and re-read the parts that pertained...

Me? Upset? :rolleyes: never. Feisty sometimes, yes. :D

I have come to love BAR, not you Ions. :p Kidding of course.

Just when I thought BAR was going to disappoint me. I've grown to love this site. Stewart, where are you?

I suppose, perhaps. was that a jab at me? :D another jab? :D He's a genius. exactly, me too. I look at books, sometimes take pictures of the front covers so I don't forget them, the amazon them. Then post threads on them looking for opinions or recommendations on them.

I love that you have a million kids but still have time to follow my threads. :)

I will not read more than one book at a time, but I have no problem re-reading. The two I want to reread right now are my favorite Fear of Flying and The Life of Pi. Both were incredible, both made me think, both made me question a lot. It kills me to think that if I had read another...

I understand your point, however a tv series is "one chapter at a time". Ok, wait, I'm eating my words... How do I explain myself here...... (10 minutes later...) Maybe for me, hearing the story and reading the story take two completley different abilities. One is to sit quietly...

I knew I'd get a rise out of somebody. I don't have a problem with his systems, again, THEY WORK FOR HIM. I guess I am the minority, I really enjoy reading and I love that feeling of being in a story and enjoying the adventure along with the characters. When I see all these books being...

I dont understand people who read more than one book at a time. How do or can you possibly enjoy, get involved in, and/or really understand what it is you are reading if you've got two stories going on in your head? To me, that's some wierd sort of impulsive behavioral pattern, not one of...

Thank you.

Still confused. Are the actual listed books ones you've read? Or are they recommendations? And why are the blank spaces scattered so?

I'm totally confused.

Since we seem to be on the topic of beer......

I caught Paternity on TNT this weekend and really enjoyed it. Burt Reynolds, ahem, looked very hot back in the day I'll say...I was 7 when this movie came out and wow let me tell you. He was a hottie! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082886/ I was amazed however, that Beverly D'Angelo SMOKES...

Why I love going to the Zoo....one of the last places you can drag your own cooler full of food/drinks without getting kicked out of the park.
