Ive been reading the Cradle series by Will Wight. I am currently on book 10 (Reaper) and there are two more out (Dreadgod and Waybound) in this series that I will read before starting anything new. This series is nothing "high brow". I almost didn't pick it back up after reading the first ...

There were a couple of movies I watched this last year that I thought were excellent. Jesus Revolution - Yeah I know its more for Christians. But the story telling was excellent and the acting was excellent. Sound of Freedom - Loved it as well. Points out how human slavery and child exploitation sti...

Loved this episode and its one that comes to mind when people ask what your fav episode of Trek is. CCOY: You deliberately stopped me, Jim. I could have saved her. Do you know what you just did? SPOCK: He knows, Doctor. He knows. Kelly shares the tragic scene with Shatner and portrays McCoy's shock ...

Thanks StevieG! Just make sure you do all the math prior to hitting that switch. How much will you get from retirement accounts/investments, when to take SS (62,65,67, or 70), ACA (and the cliff) and healthcare, taxes, and RMDs, and Sequence of returns risk. I have it all in spreadsheets so I can se...

I will be 61 this year in June. So although its only a month before turning 61, I am retiring in May and I can say I retired at 60.

You know, I havent read any of the Malazan at all. I have two others to finish, but hey I am retiring in May... I should have plenty of time to start a new series.

Single digits here in Ohio for the most part. A balmy 27 today after starting at 3 degrees this morning. 30 tomorrow followed the next day to a retreat to colder weather and snow. Typical Ohio winters.

Enjoying an evening drinking some cold beer and listening to some music. Man, cant wait for warmer weather to come back around!

Well two things didnt age well. The Browns got smoked and the Cowboys got smoked.

Season is about over for most teams. The Falcons were again a letdown although if Tampa loses this week and the Falcons win, the Falcons could win the NFC South. SF has the most balanced team in the NFC right now. Lets see if they can close. Cowboys look like they could contend with SF for the NFC. ...

I wonder if, while doing the outline for the books he had a number of unused ideas that he incorporated in his later books.

Whats the gist of the show?

If only I had the 1977 Cordoba to sit in, enjoying the feel of the Corinthian leather, while reading a luxurious signed leather copy of LFB. "Ahhhhh Kirk... my old friend....."

Sorry... at the end I went off topic

Excellent points and it delves into so much that makes these books so compelling to the readers. TC also gives an outside and inside explanation when Linden first comes to the Land and by then he has had 10 years to think about what happened and to come to grips with it. At the end it didn't really ...

A great looking meal!!! Well except for the Green Bean Casserole... not my fav LOL

I am going to go ahead and download the others you suggested. I suggest reading them in chronological order (not the order I read them in), so Best Served Cold first, and then Red Country . And yes, great characterisation. Logan is, ultimately, a tragic figure. Definitely one of my favourite. Anywa...

I read today that Rothfuss is finally putting out a new book in the Kingkiller Chronicles. The Narrow Road Between Desires A Novella of the Kingkiller Chronicle A novella ? Give me the damn concluding book! --A By the time he gets that last book out I will have to re-read just to remember the plot ...

How did you crop turn out this year Menolly? From some other threads it looks like you got tons of ripe tomatoes from your vines.

I read today that Rothfuss is finally putting out a new book in the Kingkiller Chronicles.

The Narrow Road Between Desires

A Novella of the Kingkiller Chronicle

I just received my album yesterday. I will listen to it this weekend and see what I think, Interesting. I had to stop myself from hearing the original in my head as I listened. This really is a new album more than a reduex. Its going to take a few listens for sure to really experience it. My one cr...
