Hello everyone, I'm Mike, and I read. Quite a bit. Although, not as much as some other members on here, as I can see now!

I like to read science fiction, history, science, humor, and a smattering of other areas. Really, anything that looks interesting to me, I try to read. I also like to own the books I read, which makes where I...more »

    Hey Mike!
    It's a real photo...It's me in front of the Perito Moreno Glacier when I was in Patagonia. Didn't you ever see my videos from the trip? :)

    Hope we can talk soon so we can plan for two weeks from now. I'm hoping to leave work at 12:30-1 or so Friday, head down to CT and take the Metro-North into NYC, then the PATH to where you are...Can't wait to hear the scoop about you and London!

    Hi Mike,

    Just wanted to get an idea of how "The Official Art of 2010" is like. There are no reviews for it on amazon or on this site. I'm a big fan of the movies and of ACC. Is the artwork well done in the book?

    Hey there,
    Are you all set for your big trip? I am so envious! :) Are you busy prepping? I still have to figure out logistics about getting down to your neck of the woods a month from now. Driving was kind of a pain last year. I was thinking of maybe I might take the train into NYC and then maybe the PATH to Hoboken (or is there one that goes to Jersey City)?
    Tell Sue I said hi...

    Aargh! There are two classic Peanuts books I want to add, but they both link to the same, entirely different book. Dammit! :)

    "Principles and Practice of Structural Equation Modeling" by Rex Kline is much better. :)

    Well, I'm reading more often now so the site is timely. Also, it's fun to try and recall what you've read in the past and what you thought of it (a lot of stuff was so long ago, I can't really remember). Their retrieval system needs a deal of work, though...lots of link-up errors, etc. It would be cool if they could get it pretty precise in terms of different editions, corresponding covers, etc.

    Drat, you and your 600+ books! Too many to scroll through, so I don't know if you've read Gravity's Rainbow. Based on your very stocked shelves, I think you'd like it.

    Ok, this is now the 5th way we can talk to each other? Pretty soon they are going to start making humans without mouths, but with extra fingers. BTW, there's an employee at the Burger King on Bloor Street in Toronto that has six fingers on each hand. She's way higher up the evolution chain than me.

    I did, it will be interesting to see how they make it, apparently the audio book is excellent with many big-name actors doing the voicework.
