Be the trouble you want to see in the world.

Heh.



It's in my archives at home.  I'll see if I can find it.

Darth Cupcake

There's one scene you can leave out, though, cause I just don't need that. Eeee.

I only want the GOOD sex scenes. :p

Francis Fukuyama - After the NeoCons

You know as a kid, when you were caught red handed, doing something absolutely wrong which you cannot in any way dodge or deny?  So instead of passing off your actions as something else, you instead try to make it look like you were doing something because you thought it would help someone.  And do you remember how that little story in your head sounded fine to you, but whoever it was who caught you didn't buy it for a second?

Thats essentially this book, applied to US foreign policy.

Cain

Robert Graves, The Greek Myths.

I had a choice.  I could either buy this, or Cosmic Trigger by RAW.  Naturally, Greek epics won out.

Cramulus

I ordered my copy of Black Swan like a week and a half ago and it still hasn't arrived. CURSE YOU AMAZON.

Cain

They're bastards for that.  Took me 6 weeks to get Brave New War, for example.

Richter

Recently Diverted by Suu's printout of LMNO - PI

Back to oscillating from Black Swan to a book on Buddhism.

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

I finished Pratchett's "Pyramids".


That was a good one.  Anyone who gets a kick out of Egypt, Berocracy, and space-time geometry should check it out.
