Man cave! :D With so many books I wonder where he gets the time to do, uhm, recreational chemical substances (or you could read that the other way around too). :)

Or they could pull a Disney and remain in copyright for much much longer.

The chair! The chair's the most important, in my opinion. One to lounge on, and one to write on. The writing chair's the most tricky, I think. I spend way too much time on one when I'm working, so I may be a little strange, but finding a great, comfortable, ergonomically agreeable chair is like...

House is really good. But Hugh Laurie is gooder. I've been revisiting youtube vids of his acceptance speeches, and him being very patient on the hotseat of shows like Ellen, Craig Ferguson, Clive Anderson.

Don't get me wrong, I love the Gaiman library! Even without the sofas or the desk or chair or cat! (actually, I like it a little more when I didn't know there was a cat lounging around) I love love love personal libraries in any shape or form! It's just that Gaiman's library picture is so...

Reading Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy, by Le Carre. Now this I like. Not only does he refer to Malaysia, he does so with some historical context (Malaya, which was what the peninsula was called prior to our independence from the British), and also refers to Penang and Kuala Lumpur. Even more...

I thought of Gaiman's too. How commercial he has become. :(

I love Sherlock Holmes, but I'm unsure if this is too much of a good thing. You love gourmet coffee, then people set up imitation coffee chains everywhere and before you know it Starbucks, Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf, San Francisco Coffee, etc flood everywhere you see. Then suddenly gourmet...

Hey there Peteraaron! (if you're who I think you are, you radioactive person you).

Maybe. But my son just turned five, and since his tv watching generally comprises of disney playhouse, kungfu panda and the like, I'd rather that he didn't reach over and grab my copy of Kick-ass and have him traumatized seeing graphic depictions of people being pelleted through the head with...

Inorite? But no! He blows up the entire Scottish Isles to make his point!

Or imagine how it'd be if directed by Michael Bay. An exploding chamberpot! And that letter's a Transformer.

Geez, how did I miss that? Oh, that scene must have sneaked in between parts where I dozed off.

Yeah, I too, want to know. :) Also, I just remembered that Hellboy, the comic series turned feature film phenomenon, featured a hantu penunggu from Malaysia in one of the books. Don't know which one, though (the books, I mean, not the ghost).

I was looking through my comics collection just now, and realized that the first 2 shelves are filled with stuff I'd rather my kid not stumble across them until he's like 18 or something. The kind of violence they draw nowadays is so graphic. I'm not becoming a prude, because overall I'm reading...

1. Wow. That's like 240 bucks my money. But it'll cost 2.5 pounds if you watch it over here. 2. Inorite? This is very very true. Ugh, do they even bother to make an effort nowadays. Generalizing, I know, but the better ones are not exactly child-friendly, and the child-friendly ones aren't the...

What I learned from this awesome thread is the word 'inorite'. And Neal is pretty good at finishing up tidy, yo! Diamond Age and Snow Crash were ok, yo!

Brotherhood of the Wolf a good movie? The one with Mark Dacascos?? Seriously, it was the first movie that I actually got angry with for finishing - 2+ hours I was never going to get back! :sad:

Because in the Shakespeare in Bits app, it portrayed her in the middle of lounging in the bathtub! I went up and down the original text see exactly why she was placed there, if I somehow missed something, but apparently no. This was pure interpretation. I'd have placed her inside her oxygen...
