A continuation of the previous edition....
I've been reading The Copenhagen Connection by Elizabeth Peters. You? _____________________________________________________________ Don't you realize? The next time you see sky, it'll be over another town. The next time you take a test, it'll be in some other school. Our parents, they want the best of stuff for us. But right now, they got to do what's right for them. Because it's their time. Their time! Up there! Down here, it's our time. It's our time down here. That's all over the second we ride up Troy's bucket. - Goonies |

A guide to Kant's categorical imperative.
*sigh* It's making a depressing amount of sense, so far. But the famous four examples he uses are driving me nuts. I just can't make the final connection of taking a maxim and converting into a law. And I don't see what the internal consistency of a law has to do with it's morality. __ The brickchewing, camera flaunting restroom saint formerly known as Babylon the Bride |

I'm reading 'One flew over the cuckoo's nest'. It's lots of fun, and I'm enjoying it a lot as I do often enjoy these kind of late 60's insane assylum books (apart from the Bell Jar....)

I do wonder sometimes how accurate it is, though.

I thought that I remembered that the girl from the story was a real life case, and went around the US giving talks about her experiences and in support of better funding of institutions and such.
Not, of course, that any of this keeps things in the book from having been exaggerated at all ala James Frey and "A Million Little Pieces.  James Wandering, but not lost. "You are a Knight Errant. All of the fun of rescuing damsels, and none of the paperwork." |

"Future Shock" -Alvin Toffler. The future, circa 1960. Lots of good stuff about how people join 'subcults' for identity
"The Death of a Joyce Scholar" - Bartholomew Gill. English mystery novel. Picked it up used for the name. Set in Dublin around Bloomsday. Probably won't appeal to the Joycean in me, but seems nice "An Intimate Knowledge of the Night" - Terry Downling. WONDERFUL interlinked collection of short stories by an amazing Aussie writer. I'm putting off finishing it because I don't want it to end |

Daytripper ... welcome! Do check out the World's End if you have some time. Much more zaniness than here in the Other Writers forum (though many of us do spend a fair amount of time here as well).

Abarat, by Clive Barker. Just never got around to it before. Thus far, it's reading like The Wizard of Oz - on acid ...
