    Non-inflammatory political subject line about opinions of Republican primary voters

    This thread has drifted far enough away from the topic of Republicans and primaries that it begs to be locked.

    Nora Roberts

    Picked up Northern Lights today on the rack at the grocery store. Usually the grocery store has recent paperbacks, but this one looks like it's from 04. Maybe it's late because it was a movie? This is a magnum opus, 656 pages, I paused before committing to reading it. It will be my first Nora...

    The economics of self publishing e-books

    The Economics of Self-Publishing an Ebook My prejudices against self publishing are being destroyed. There have always been a few cases of self pubbed authors able to make a living, but they were few and far between. Almost every day there is a story of a new self pubbed author hitting it...

    Christophe Hitchens diagnosed with esophageal cancer

    Here is his latest interview - with CBS: Outspoken and outrageous: Christopher Hitchens - 60 Minutes - CBS News I have to admit I know little of him, have read very little of his writing, but it's plain to se he is regarded as an intellectual giant among intellectuals. I've always...

    tree killer

    Can't say that I've ever seen a stump regrow into a tree. Definitely the first time I've ever heard of someone transplanting a stump. Very interesting indeed.

    And what did you do to forum, anyway??? I used to get bra ads in here, now I'm getting Millenium Hilton in Bangkok ads.

    I try to explain

    Please, stop embarrasing yourself like this. I don't, and you're right. So it begs the question as to why you mention it repeatedly. Very well then.

    Finally, an Okie book worth reading

    I think our own DavidRM is an Okie, no? I think one of his books about a girl and horses takes place in OK as well.

    Nora Roberts

    I was going to pick up one of her books once, a recent paperback about a family, (started with M I think?), but it appeared to be part of a series so I didn't get it. This should probably be in the Author Discussion forum, no?

    GWTDT was a good read, no doubt about it, but I too am skipping the other two.

    Stieg Larsson

    LOL! As is my tradition after reading a book, I went to Amazon to read the reviews. Right now there are 1020 5 star reviews adn 320 1 star reviews. And I see the same pattern with these one-star fairies that I see in all of them. They pick a few bad points in the book and use that to slam the...

    Stieg Larsson

    Just finished GWTDT. I wish I had been warned about how to post spoilers in here because I highlighted and read SFG's post about Harriet so I knew what Blomkvist was going to find on the ranch in Australia. I enjoyed it none the less except for one thing. I dislike authors injecting their...

    Bookshelfporn.com?

    For the last half hour or so I've been looking at the photos on this site and I didn't see anyone displaying mass market paper backs. For buying and reading dime-store novels I guess I am considered the "beavis-and-butthead" of the literary world. Fifth Ave Books is a used bookstore in my...

    Is Fox News evil or stupid?

    What are you babbling about? Are you keeping up here? Nobody made up a phony map, it is a screen shot of what the goofs at Fox news put up during a broadcast. The point is to show the level of competence at Fox.
