Wow I bet the Bible is full of them, let us know what you find!

And I'm reading Stephen King right now too! (I've actually read 4 King books in a row, I might need a break after this one)

Yaaaaar. And such.

I'm reading "Sphere." The book was way, way better than the movie.

I'm reading Dissolution

It 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, the ending hurt.

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...

*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).

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).

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.

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!!

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!
