    I think he is from a different planet. Has to be!

    I have NOT seen a documentary on McCandless/Into the Wild. Thank you so much! I wanted to read/watch more about him, but couldn't find anything.

    Bah...past midnight. May try sleeping.

    Glad you liked the Ender books.

    I just noticed the auto-bio of Ben Franklin on your shelf! One of my three heroes.
    What a genius...except for daylight saving time...everybody has one major screw up ;D

    I guess it keeps you out of trouble!

    Now that you're the new Admin, you're shelf time will be limited ;D

    There is one person here with an icon of the human eye. The iris and pupil are solid green. The iridescent green that
    you might find in an oily patch of the road on a rainy day. Over the green is the peace sign, like a chicken foot.
    It really freaks me out, and I don't know why.

    Right now I'm reading classics. When I get a chance I'll get to a sci-fi book someone passed me on the writing
    website. The book is close to getting published so it should be good. I read a bit a month or so ago, and it
    looked promising.

    How could you have possibly put up over 3000 books on your shelf?
    Sounds like Sci-fi to me.

    I saw that you read Good Omens. I thought that book was really funny.

    Just stopping by to say hello

    On second thought, if you haven't read Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card, you might like that. Just saw that you were a sci-fi fan. Fun book. Huge series. I stopped at about book 4 or 5.

    That Into the Wild pushed me into a nature kick. I loved it. I wish there were more true stories like that out there that caught my fancy.

    I'll leave you be now. Sleep deprivation has got me rambling.

    Good to know. I was planning on the Forrest Griffin book as well. The man's got heart.

    See the Silva fight? I was rooting for Forrest, but I knew it wasn't going to happen. I missed work for those fights and was a little disappointed.

    No recommendations at the moment. Reading nature type books for the time being.

    Totally right!!
    I think that if u don't want to do something, doesn't matter how hard you try, or how good u r, u will never give your 100%
    and on the other hand it doesn't matter if you are really bad at something if u want to do it and try hard u will always get what you want

    o gosh no, i'm just in high school and i love everything related with engineering, but just like a hobbie. I think that the carrer that goes more with my personality is related with people more than machines, but i have to say that is admirable what engineers can do whith what people can call "a pice of metal".
    So it's my second option of carrer :)
    What u said about freedoom is totally true u can admin ur time and everthing related with your work so you have total control of your job, Something that everyone wish to have :D

    Hello Anthony,
    Been okay. Reading mostly historical romance. Not your cup of tea, I'm sure.
    I've sputtered out on Chapter 9 of my book. I'll have to recharge my batteries. But since
    I'm not an experienced writer, I'm not sure how one does it. Every day or two I work on
    a paragraph, but its not coming as easy as before. Fortunately its very near the end. But
    then I have to go back and reedit--oh how I dread that. ;D

    Hope you are well. I notice that you recommended The Sparrow in one post. I'll have to look
    that up. You take care.
    Nina
