    I like to write up stories based on streaming porn videos.
    Then I email them to co-workers.

    I usually re-read them in the morning. So I guess, that.

    I only picked it up on Saturday along with the Mark Curtis book on the UK & Islam, I wanted his books on the Rothschild family but was too lazy to look for them in the shop so settled with those 2.

    I loved H. G. Wells since high school. He's amazing. The Island of Dr. Moreau is the shit. The movie and the book. I've been reading some Orson Scott Card and I got Sirens of Titans by Kurt Vonnegut but I have yet to read it. I don't read often, but when I do I get obsessed and I'll just read for a couple of weeks and that's it.

    I'm a big sci-fi fan. Orson Scott Card, Asimov, and Douglas Adams especially.
    Also a big Murakami fan.

    Currently reading The Master and Margarita by Bulgakov, and it's pretty good.


    I don't read much outside of fiction. The only non-fiction I ever really read is art history or otherwise art-related stuff.
    soon.

    Yea, I've read the Tao and I'm on my second way through Brave New World. I really enjoyed Candide too. I read a lot of philosophy for school and even more so in my spare time, so to move away from it i picked up a few books that make fun of it. haha that actually helped me understand a lot of the theories better than I previously had. I'm surprised with all this sci-fi though... might have to check it out. I think history is really important too because by knowing what was happening in the world when the book was written, I usually enjoy it more.

    I didn't like Doors of Perception and my friend just gave me 1984, so we'll see. I feel like these are pretty played out books that might not live up to the hype... thoughts?

    Same. That's why I have to read the cool shit at least twice. SOOO jealous of the people who can get high and read with the same efficiency.

    gettin high and reading is fuckin killer man. i started reading a lot when i started smoking weed. i never used to read anything until i graduated high school and my weed intake went up.

    i cant figure out asimov though. he has some crazy ass sci fi books than he'll go and publish a non fiction book loaded with facts and shit. hilarious.

    Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

    He gestured Arthur toward a chair which looked as if it had been made out of the rib cage of a stegosaurus.

    "It was made out of the rib cage of a stegosaurus," explained the old man...

    I love Douglas Adams' style. So much comedy that's almost stupid in a way but still so good.
    soon.
