Sorry, I don't agree. This same logic can be applied to entire genres, so if you've read Frank Herbert, you never need to read Orson Scott Card, or Asimov, or any other in the genre. Likewise mysteries, or horror, etc. The importance of a variety of books isn't whether or not there is...

Yeah, let's do Ender's Game. I just bought it and can move it up to the top of my stack! Cathy

Naw. I'm on the computer for a LIVING. I like to spend my free time with tactile things, like books and print magazines. It's why I don't buy e-books. Maybe someday, but right now, my eyes get tired looking at the screen for too long. Cathy

Sort of like the Necronomicon in H.P. Lovecraft lore? (Although I think that someone actually published one by that name once. But I don't know what it was about.) Couldn't get the site to open. Kept getting 404s Cathy

Happy Birthday, Freya. :D A day late, but in defense, there were big, ugly nasty storms here and we lost power. Now, of course, I DO expect return birthday greetings, 'cause today is MINE! Happy birthday to me, Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday to MEEEE, Happy birthday to you...

Lady_Jodie, First we need to find out where you are. You don't say in your header. We have members all over the world. It's hit and miss whether anyone has it, or can get it to you by the weekend, though. Still, you can but try. Cathy

"Evil" is subjective. We humans apply it to actions instead of internal struggle. But how do you explain a child in a comfortable home, with loving parents, with no previous psychological trauma viciously killing a classmate or a stranger for no reason? It's one thing to say that children...

You mean that stupid Michael Crichton one that pops up while you're typing? :mad: It's bad enough that it's in one spot but to have it show up while posting is just plain annoying! Moderators? Any help with that?

Wabbits have hands in anime? :eek: Too cool! Maybe penguins can fly too! Cathy Who hasn't had a penguin fix for FAR too long! :D

Do you regularly drink bottled water when tap water is readily available? From my own tap? You betcha! Really hard water here. Other places, no. Do you regularly drink alcohol? What's regular? I have a glass of wine every day or so. Do you take home or like to eat leftovers? Eat...

Do you normally watch TV while eating meals at home? No. I normally read. Have you ever been to a psychologist/therapist/counselor? No. Have you ever taken an illegal drug, other than marijuana? Not even marijuana. Do you regularly go to church? No Do you have more than 100 books in...

Here's one back at you: Where is the language "Franglis" spoken? :rolleyes:

Missed this one, or I would have posted with the other: Algophobia - pain thalassophobia - taking a stab at this one, but fear of water or sailing?? Brontophobia - I like mr_michel's answer better than the real one. Can we change the definition to fit?? ;) Horophobia - the fear of . ...

You need a (d) "both b and c" :D (also somewhat cheating to use different languages that *appear* english...)

Welcome, c-jay! What do you like to read? Cathy

I seem to have a somewhat perverse attraction to those impossibly big-eyed people in Japanese anime. So far, I only like a few well enough to watch them in Japanese with subtitles (Yu-Gi-Oh! and YuYu Hakusho), but I pick up Shonen Jump every month to get a fix. I found in the "English"...

:eek: No, no, do not say that word again! What is it you wish of us?? :eek:

Shrubbery?! :eek: Ah, yes, shrubbery. Well then... :D
