I finished Dylan's Chronicles: Volume 1 the other day. Thanks, Dmoose. (It was a Christmas present.)

I thought it was good. Some people accused the author of name-dropping, and there are something like 14 pages of glowing recommendations of others in the front...

But I still enjoyed it. It's worth a read. It's funny, considering Dylan's current stature, about how he looked up to various people, some of whom I at least had never heard of.

I haven't been doing a whole lot these last few days.

Staying at home, working from time to time, in little bursts - the odd phone call, tech support email, taking naps, reading... just generally taking it easy.

I've been reading quite a bit of Edward Abbey, and danger will robinson, I just ran across a website that *gasp* sells all his books. My bank account shudders.

I haven't read enough Robert A. Heinlein, though Starship Troopers is an old favorite (and it is nothing like the movie, d"£$ it!).
