I'm reading DissolutionIt follows R.A.Salvatore's lead as taking place in the dark elf city of menzoberranzan, although the author is a guy named Richard Lee Byers. Quite good so far.

Recently re-read Form and Void, the next-to-last Cerebus story arc.

Man, I wish I could afford to catch up on those.. the last one I picked up was "going home". Wanna loan me your copy, Shreds? Hey Magic-crazy, Cujo's very, very good. If you're a King fan, you really should read "It", "The Stand", and "Misery"! Have you read those yet..? They're my three personal favorites anyway. I'm REALLY enjoying the gunslinger too, have you read any of the trilogy? I'm going to have to go get "the dark tower" and "the drawing of the three" after this one I think... __________________ signatures SUCK!

*chuckle* No, but if you'll send me $50 I'll get you a copy (that's cost + S/H + my estimated postage cost, you get back as a check or money order what's not spent). __________________ PLEASE REPORT RULES VIOLATIONS!Good advice: "...first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye." - Jesus "Believe nothing...unless it agrees with your reason and your common sense." - Buddha

I gotta say im not really readin n e thing rite now.however the last books that I found particularly embedded in my mind are the David Farland Trilogy The Sum Of All Men Brotherhood of the Wolf Wizardborn and im waiting for the fourth book cos Wizardborn has a n ending that suggests it. I gotta say one of the most annoying series has to be Harry Potter followed by the Dark Materials by Phillip Pullman I am also planning on reading ' The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy '

Nope, not just like this...but I, or you, could probably learn how to do that in one hour or less; it's that easy.If you have a book on Java that's not too extenive in its information, you should be able to do it with the book. Otherwise, just look around some Java forums and/or Google. (I gotta go to sleep now, or I'd try to find out myself). __________________ Rest in peace, Ari.The Poetry Post

I was severly disappointed by the movie, the book was so much more in depth. Same thing with Dreamcatcher. The book gave me a hard-on and the movie made me vomit. __________________ <3 KelliSithDrogan (10:30:31 PM): theres nothing like a big piece of meat before bed

I could have sold you the paperbacks to you for that money Since I bought them hardcover(best.edition.ever), I still have 3 paperbacks from '76 available for the fan Buy the books that were printed 25 years before they were hyped!! DOUBLE ADVANTAGE: buy the same books that were printed when Tolkien was still alive!! __________________ rationalist · metalhead · perfectionist · godless · happy«I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.» -J.R.R.

You guys were right about the Lord of the Rings this whole time. This book is awesome! I'm at the part where they are venturing into the scary forest, and I'm really getting into it. I like how Frodo and his buddies drink ale and smoke hobbit-weed all day long. These hobbits sure know how to party! __________________ signatures SUCK!
