    Sounds like it would be - still, handy if ever you find yourself stranded in France! :whistling:

    Hey from Melbourne via Tokyo...

    How's that? French-speaking capital, right? The only place in Canada I've been to thus far is Windsor - I was DJing in Detroit and popped across the border.

    Hey from Melbourne via Tokyo...

    Heh-heh... wouldn't surprise me knowing my hotch-potch assortment of Scottish, Norwegian and Irish ancestors!! Manga's great, and - yep - best read from the back. ;) Tokyo is sometimes just that; at others hilarious and bizarre. My cup o' tea precisely. Where in Canada are you?

    Zounds... thank YOU, Peder!!! Brilliant to get this kind of feedback since (as you can well imagine) till now it's been a crazily personal ride... and I hope that translates well to others!! ;) Good luck with that enter key, by the way! Remember your Dante... ;)

    Hey from Melbourne via Tokyo...

    Great feedback, Peder... Wow, I can see that you have an interesting insight since you've actually lived in L.A., whereas I only visited as a tourist for a week about 15 years ago and got lost all the time! I actually read the book the first time after seeing the movie, and found the...

    Inception

    I loved it, but then again I'm a huge Christopher Nolan fan. Also worthwhile is comparing and contrasting Inception with Paprika, the anime movie by the late, great Satoshi Kon: Paprika (2006) - IMDb

    1st Chapter - Tobacco-Stained Mountain Goat

    Hi all, I've actually just finished my novel Tobacco-Stained Mountain Goat after an absolute eternity writing the bugger! ;) While it's not my first novel per se, it's the first that'll actually be published - which I'm obviously extremely chuffed about, and would like to share with you here...

    The first sentence in the book you're reading

    "It was about eleven o'clock in the morning, mid October, with the sun not shining and a look of hard wet rain in the clearness of the foothills." The Big Sleep - Raymond Chandler ;)
