The last thing I read in that vein was something by Marvin Minsky(i?) about cannibalism.

Last night, I read a great movie. Yes, read a movie. This was the second movie I've read in the past month. The first was Pan's Labyrinth. Last night's movie was Delicatessen.

I'd recommend it.

Reading only counts if its out of a genuine book. Anything else is just amusement or browsing.

Says you.

Today I'm re-reading Fight Club for probably the 20th or so time...it just won't stop getting better.

You know they have a movie right?

Agent_Tachyon · « **Reply #456 on:** June 06, 2007, 04:38:14 PM »

OMFG NO WAY! I'M GOING TO RENT IT NOW

I can burn you a copy of mine and send it in the mail to save you the trouble. It'll be just like netflix.

Agent_Tachyon · « **Reply #458 on:** June 06, 2007, 10:14:37 PM »

Thanks but I've already got a copy, I was kidding. I've seen the movie at least twelve times.

I just finished "Cell" by Stephen King.

I've moved on to "The Color Of Magic" by Terry Pratchett.

"The Alphabet of Manliness" by Maddox.

It kicks ass, though I thought it was a bit below him to include Chuck Norris.

Yeah, but the chapter on boners totally makes up for it.

I like the bit about dangerously contaminated photons bouncing off dicks in the bathroom into one's eyes.

Agent_Tachyon · « **Reply #464 on:** June 24, 2007, 08:51:16 PM »

Read "My tank is fight!" yesterday, it kicks ass.

It took me a little over a friggin week, but I've finished re-reading the first six Stupid Sexy Flanders books. I'm prepping for the final book next month.

pbsaurus · « **Reply #466 on:** June 26, 2007, 12:18:09 PM »

I haven't read any of them. I guess I should do that one of these days. Sandy has them all, so I really have no excuse. I've seen all the movies so far though. Maybe that's it. I don't want to ruin the movies by reading the books first.

Anyway today I'm starting Weird California. Yeah, I know that's redundant....

Agent_Tachyon · « **Reply #467 on:** June 26, 2007, 02:59:22 PM »

I just finished "Steal this book" (I did). It's a little amusing and sad to hear quite how psyched he was about his doomed revolution.

Agent_Tachyon · « **Reply #468 on:** June 29, 2007, 02:13:11 AM »

Double posting is COOL!

Now reading "On the Duty of Civil Disobedience" by Henry David Thoreau, strongly recommended to me by my comrades Dr. King and M. Ghandi.

pbsaurus · « **Reply #469 on:** June 29, 2007, 11:18:55 AM »

Love Thoreau. That one was great as was Walden.

The Godmakers by Frank Herbert

There was a big used book sale near me and I found a few old Sci Fi out of print paperbacks.

polaris · « **Reply #472 on:** September 07, 2007, 10:45:15 AM »

currently I'm reading Evil Genius by Catherine Jinks and Digital Fortress by Dan Brown,
along with subtitles, forums posts, the keys on the keyboard, the intructions on the shampoo bottle.....

Agent_Tachyon · « **Reply #473 on:** September 07, 2007, 05:33:45 PM »

Digital fortress was the last straw for Dan Brown in my book. I've read three of his books now, and they've been the SAME DAMN BOOK, right down to the end plot twist.

Scheherazade · « **Reply #474 on:** September 07, 2007, 05:36:45 PM »

I'm reading Eyes of the Dragon by Stephen King. It's a very good book, if a bit out of his style.
