I'm reading it now, and just don't care very much. I don't really get the huge appeal of these books.
You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I haven't read the books, but I did see the first movie and it's very compelling.

I think it's because I mostly read crime fiction anyway, but the stuff I like is zippier.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
It plays more like a cross between Twin Peaks and Silence of the Lambs than most crime fiction.

I'm watching Buckaroo Banzai AIFG. It's still snowing, which is not.

I haven't seen any of the movies (or Twin Peaks, really), but that is not my take at all.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
What time would you be thinking, brenda? In the duration, the SO has come up with a dinner invite for us to the crazy hippie commune up on Wilson. I'm still waffling on that one, depending on how transportation shakes out.
So if you wanted to go early, we could do drinks?

That sounds perfect, Liese. Maybe at 5ish?

Always Anti-fascist!
Man, Jesse, that probably means I won't like them either...I have one of the movies buried in my Netflix queue though. Suddenly disappointed they never made Right as Rain into a movie, even though SLJ still doesn't match "my" Derek Strange.
