He's definitely for being facetious anyway.

I agree. If you didn't say this I was going to ask if it has to be one or the other. A dystopian classic. Have you read We or Brave New World? I liked both even better than 1984.

I'll second all of these: collections anthologies (I like this for the range of authors/stories to comment on) graphic novels (usually nice and short, could pack into same month as another category or read more than 1) memoirs/biographies (I can do without the politicians, athletes, movie...

My wife says that one was good. Priest has another called Dreadnought that sounds similar. Other ideas: Hexslinger series - Gemma Files Territory - Emma Bull (wife also says this one is good)

I know. I like to think some exec said "there's really no science going on here, f*** it let's change the name." Yeah, I think most people probably feel this way. I hadn't really thought about it until I'd heard the argument from professionals who've spent their lives immersed in the genre...

There is a concern among some fans that science fiction and sci-fi are being used interchangeably yet have come to represent separate genres. There's so much called sci-fi that is absolutely science-free. Like Harlan Ellison said "2001 is science fiction, giant ant movies are sci-fi...that's the...

Man From the South Story about a wager proposed by a stranger. Spoiler:

This story reminds me of a show I just watched about the possibility of parallel universes. No beginnings, no ends, endless copies of everything and so forth. My first Borges story. Thanks Libra.

We shouldn't even debate the idea even if it can be reversed or at least slowed down to a point that gives us a longer time to adapt? It's never been a question whether the Earth will be okay but about those who have to live (or die) with it. This is a misunderstanding I've seen from both...

It's good. It's all covers but one. They're mostly not real well known blues songs that he covers though so that makes it better for me.

From what I've read Huntsman is actually known as a moderate despite being from such a conservative state. He is for civil unions and reformed Utah's backwards alcohol laws. Although you still can't buy beer stronger than 4% ABV in non-state-run stores!

Not quite sure but if that's a reference to Friday Night Lights you appear to have Mogwai confused with Explosions in the Sky.....who, by the way, I may go see in a couple days. Definitely going to see James McMurtry (son of Larry McMurtry for all you Lonesome Dove fans out there) on 9/23.
