No. Sure it says 5.30 on Friday evening. Not only was I not drinking Friday, I wasn't even home from work yet.

Yes, that does look a bit odd to be honest. Does someone else have access to your account.

I read it in one sitting on New Year's Eve - extremely readable.
That don't make no sense.

Re: Recommend-a-book.
It´s not a particularly deep or meaningful book but it´s a book I constantly reread when I´m looking for pure entertainment. It´s just a rip-roaring adventure with a fantastic plot.
At least I'm housebroken.

Re: Recommend-a-book.
A book is a version of the world. If you do not like it, ignore it; or offer your own version in return.
Salman Rushdie
You talk to God, you're religious. God talks to you, you're psychotic.
House MD
Who needs a meaning anyway, I'd settle anyday for a very fine view.
Sandy Denny
This is the wrong forum for bluffing
Paco
Yes, yes. But first I need to show you this venomous fish!
Calilasseia
I think we should do whatever Pawiz wants.

Re: Recommend-a-book.
I wasn't impressed by Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep or Blade Runner for that matter. I found his writing to be really dry and devoid of any enthusiasm and the plot wasn't really up to much either.Pappa wrote:Really good book...
One of his books that I would recommend is:
We have no great war, no great depression.
Our great war is a spiritual war.
Our great depression is our lives.
Our great war is a spiritual war.
Our great depression is our lives.
