Slapinions: Happy New Year 2015!
http://slapinions.blogspot.com/2015/01/happy-new-year-2015.html
Thursday, January 1, 2015. Happy New Year 2015! In a few of my forty years on this planet the New Year brought forth a stream of Resolutions. Some were sincere, some tongue-in-cheek, and almost all doomed to failure. The dawn of 2015 is a little different. I’m content with the road I’m on right now, with the express understanding that it is *the journey* and not the destination. My goal in 2015 is to simply continue what I’m doing, but do it better. Stay employed 40 hours a week. Be a good/better Dad.

Slapinions: January 2015
http://slapinions.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 3, 2015. A Time to Heal by Gerald Ford. In December, as a break from reading law texts, I read “A Time to Heal”, the Presidential memoir of Gerald Ford that was published in 1979. A good man, Ford. Some items of interest, to me if no one else:. 183; Having just finished a biography of Nelson Rockerfeller, it was nice to hear some of the stories of N.A.R. from a second source, and I’m pleased that Ford held him in genuine esteem. 183; Ford also strongly considered Anne Armstrong as his V...

It's the Book Blog!!: Old Man's War Tie-in
http://itsthebookblog.blogspot.com/2009/09/old-mans-war-tie-in.html
It's the Book Blog! Wednesday, September 16, 2009. OK, I'm showing my nerd shirt now, but one of the lines I really liked in John Scalzi's " Old Man's War. Was when a character would say (and he said this several times), "I'd explain it to you, but you don't have the math." " The Black Hole War. Then, when you're finished with " The Black Hole War. Try " The Day We Found the Universe.". And don't come crying back to me when you realize you've LEARNED something. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

It's the Book Blog!!: May 2008
http://itsthebookblog.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
It's the Book Blog! Thursday, May 22, 2008. I liked "The Scourge of God". It's about the fall of the Roman Empire to the Huns, but also about Attila himself, and was engrossing. I have no idea about its historical accuracy (there is a historical note at the end, addressing the lack of reliable histories of that time) but it was a really good story about love and power.

It's the Book Blog!!: Cory Doctorow
http://itsthebookblog.blogspot.com/2009/09/cory-doctorow.html
It's the Book Blog! Wednesday, September 16, 2009. Now that I have read 3 books by Doctorow, and listened to one audiobook, I am riding the bandwagon. Of fans. Neil Gaiman's opinion. Led me to Doctorow (OK, someone I work with told me to read Doctorow, and someone else told me Gaiman thought Doctorow was great) and I'm very glad. And Someone Comes to Town, Someone Leaves Town. Find a copy of Wastelands Stories of the Apocalypse. Of Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom. And was thrilled with it. Go!

It's the Book Blog!!: All This Heavenly Glory
http://itsthebookblog.blogspot.com/2009/08/all-this-heavenly-glory.html
It's the Book Blog! Saturday, August 15, 2009. All This Heavenly Glory. You don't like chick lit. But you like novels about women, just women who aren't stupid and who don't still hang out with people they don't like anymore. Like how in Julia and Julia. Someone says, "I don't think you like your friends." If that's what you think, read " All This Heavenly Glory,. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). What I've Been Reading.
