This book really made me realize what a skill it is to write a sex scene that both makes sense and is sexy. Well done! | |

Whaaaaaaaaa … I think this is where Jonah Hill got his idea of boundaries. |

“And you know what happened next in my dream? Dick Cheney and I said the same thing at the same time: "Well, we had a Cold War to win." And then I screamed at him: "I KNEW you would say that! You ALWAYS say that!" But then, since Cheney and I made the same remark at the same time, I realized he owed me a Coke. So I said, "Jinx! You owe me a Coke!" And Vice-President Dick Cheney smiled sheepishly. *Shudder*... I don't even DRINK coke. I tastes like robot sweat.”

YOU, on the other hand, would be great at it. Just don't let your clients know that you actually liked an Ayn Rand book, 'k?

This has happened to me before, even with books that I have read before but it has been so long that I've forgotten. I would also vote for it as a pretty perfect book. There are times when I show up in a bookstore and just want an actual story to fall into- that's one of the examples I sometimes give of what I mean when I say that.

Dude, hardly any of the first years here fail the bar exam. You'll be fine. First call of duty when you pass is to make GRs start working again.
We are flying in Thursday morning and leaving Monday night. You'll be so ready for an alcoholic beverage come Thursday!

Also, WHY will I not be getting to see you at the end of this month???

I am interested about this though: Thought: maybe I can totally handle women who are ridiculous and un-women as minor characters when the story is completely not about them, but I can't handle them when they are the focus of the story.
I will fight you about this! But first define ridiculous? Are you saying Anna K and Emma B are ridiculous? How so? I don't think at least Flaubert saw Emma B as an "un-woman"- I actually think he totally supported them. Or do you just mean not the message, but that the story is about women's roles and being like this or that and you don't want to read a story that's just about that? Maybe I am not understanding?

Imagine a big billboard off the highway somewhere with James Franco on it. Got your attention? Good. Then, off to a lower corner somewhere is a DMV quality picture of you in a suit with a phone to your ear. Next to said picture of you is the following: "GOT A TICKET? CALL 1-800-LAW-DAWG"

PS - plus now I'm totally in the Hunger Games loop. It may be the first time that I've ever been so synchronized with popular mainstream culture... awesome. :)
