You never know when they'll crack. Eventually, they're gonna start gnawing on the nearest thing they can, whether it's a hood ornament or wristwatch, wrist still attached; a moment when that uniform they've made for themselves breaks down and they fall to pieces, right out of it. Give me the life-haters any day. They'll play you straight. -Oobie |

We are simply waiting for the dinner to be finished cooking before we partake.

  Member Since: July 2003 RK: 13 MP: 6,289 | Monday May 28, 2012 7:32 PM Not true at all. I quite enjoy rereading great books like these, and enjoying the hype and wild theorizing is far more fun than instant gratification. Everywhere I go I repeat: I do not belong here.

Meanwhile, I am feeding my brain with all the delicious, nutrient rich, reading that fuels the mind and speeds up my mental metabolism...I think there are even some healthy Omega 3's in there.

Member Since: May 2000 RK: 6 MP: 1,452 | Wednesday May 30, 2012 5:55 PM *You're.  And now that I've thoroughly relished the opportunity to critique your post, I will add that a good book is even more delicious when it's so excellent that you can read it repeatedly and still be surprised and captivated by it. And yes, this series is that good. I started reading it about 18 months ago and have managed to only have to reread the lot once, as it took me about a year to get hold of this last book. I can't normally read books twice, but these... Yeah, you guys are missing out by only reading it once. Anyone you can describe as chipper is to be avoided. You never know when they'll crack. Eventually, they're gonna start gnawing on the nearest thing they can, whether it's a hood ornament or wristwatch, wrist still attached; a moment when that uniform they've made for themselves breaks down and they fall to pieces, right out of it.
