Nobody provoked you into anything... but I would suggest that you gather as much evidence as possible, interrogate as many witnesses as possible and begin proceedings... only to find that you have been terribly wrong, at which point you should really apologize. :LOL:

Yeah, nevermind that now.

Are you gonna join the bookclub?

It might be out of your league since people are actually expected to contribute and not just post up quotations from Bertrand Russell without thinking for themselves.

2the9s said:

Well, if you are going to try to think for yourselves, I suggest that you steer clear of the "Archie" comics... they might be a bit deep for you. :LOL:

Someone's being a butthead!

IceNine said:

These two comments made me laugh.

Now... knock it off you two!

INSATIABLE said:

Okay, I apologize... I will duck out gracefully...

Continue with your books, people...

:LOL:

2the9s said:

2 more days and I should have it...

If not... I give up!

Damn FOOTSEEYA!

I've got the book and I'm reading it, but not very far into it. So far so good.

Started the book today... finally got a copy from Amazon that was printed correctly this time

I'm with you Dora!

i finished the conan book already. it's a quick read, especially if you get the easy-eye version. anyone wanting my book report orgnote me okay?

i'd post my report on conan here but then 2the9s'd throw another hissy fit. :eyeroll:

I found a used copy at Powells in Oregon for 7.95 () but I bought a copy of a Raymond Carver book instead.



I'll get it next week! Or will that be too late?

I received my copy, finally, last friday. I haven't started
reading it yet since I've had 3 other books lying around I
had to finish since otherwise everything's going to blur and
end up a mess.

I'll start and finish Coetzee this friday [praise the lord
for the phantom job].

Finally, I received it!

"I have never seen anything like it: two little discs of glass suspended in front of his eye in loops of wire..."

Diva said:

Wow, that's exactly the phrase I read as I opened up the
book for the first time to have a quick browse through it.

IstenSzek said:

Ahh yes, those eyes of empire!

Natsume said:

POWELLS ROCKS! I went to the one in Portland...I can't believe how awesome it is!

2the9s said:

Ahh yes, the eyes...

So far so good...

applekisses said:

I loved it! My aunt and uncle (both Oregon natives) like Powells too but are a bit sad because it's beginning to take over the rest of the small, independent bookstores in Portland ever since it opened up its website.

IstenSzek said:

Cute avatar, IstenSzek! I approve.

Natsume said:
