Books
 

I'm going to post this in General Chat, only because it's a book. If "powers that be" want to move it, fine.

The book Anyone You Want Me to Be, by John Douglas, is out. You can search for it on amazon or bn.com under the ISBN of 0743226356.

The only things I want to say are firstly, I don't want to find out that ANYONE ELSE I was friends with becomes nothing more than a chapter in a recent true crime non-fiction work. And second, there IS a list in the back of things to do and not do about chatting/meeting on the Internet. Most of us know this already, we've been around a while. But if you know anyone who's thinking about it, show him or her the appendices in this book.

RIP Izabela, everyone at Purdue still misses you.

I don't do books never have.......in fact come to think of it I've only ever read one.... The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole aged 13 3/4 it was quite funny but that's as far as I've got with 'em.....
anyway just thought I'd sneak in a little naughty bit here and say that if anyone is looking for some advice on internet chatting and what to do when meeting people you chat to online there's a little bit I put together on my website.......you'll find it under "FUN"

OK plug complete......how rude of me :D:D

Oh Fussy... rude? NEVER... LOL...

Fussy...dear god man...I couldnt even fathom not reading...I read 1-2 books each week!!

Thanks for the info dadaist

I have to make myself slow down on my reading.. I could read a book in a day.. and have. Thank You dadaist.. this one sounds very interresting.

Thanks dadaist! So very sorry for your loss.....and TY for the heads up! Your words of wisdom are always well taken!

Thank you dadaist, I'll have to pick it up.

Fussy! I can't even imagine. Saturday alone I read two books. :p

Devillishgirl on saturday I did some gardening, perved at pixies, sat in the sun for a long time, ate a yummy meal outside and went on to have loads of yummy sex.........I'll take that over reading two books ! ;)

Fussy, what kind of books can I get for you so we can switch places next weekend...hell I'll throw in my wife too, after all a swap is a swap

you couldn't even tempt me away with a room full of top spec computers in need of a tune up and major games playing work out !!!..........although if you throw in a copy of Windows 2000 administrator's pocket consultant........... ;) no.... no... I can not be tempted away !!

Every one can be bought...i just need to find your price

Skip - he did start the bidding at $10,000 on another thread but no-one offered it. :(

Oh and btw,

I being a cultured person, unlike my not-so-better-half DO read books. :p

Just for the record, so that you don't think I'm a complete phillistine (sp?) like him!

Hmmm, at this point I dont think I would care if you couldnt read and did nothing but scratch your ass all the time... I would still do ya

That's good because I do spend a remarkable amount of time with my hands in my pants! LMAO

No really......I do!

That image just burnt into my brain

I could not imagine my life without books.

My SO and I love a good soak in a bath with a couple of good books,

a bottle or two of wine and some smoked salmon.

Not having kids underfoot makes it sooooo much easier.

Yes she does ! infact she spends more time with her hand there than I do !!!

You sayin' I'm not cultured ? :( :p

I am starting to read more and more. Right now I am reading a book on evolution and the people who told it to the world, the name of the books slips my mind, but it is good reading.

Amazing how quickly you guys get and STAY off topic. *sigh*

Even tho,I haven't read it,there is a book,that I have been trying
to get!Through our Library,if they don't have a certain book,some-
times they can get it,if another Library has it!I heard the author,
of this book,interviewed on a talk show,one morning.The book,is
titled,"Deriliction of Duty"It is by a Robert Patterson.He was assigned,by the Govt.,to carry the nuclear codes, for Bill Clinton,
during his Presidential terms.The, complete,disinterest would scare
you to death.The author said that the disreguard of the military,
by the Clintons,was so bad,that he couldn't even bring himself,
to vote,while he had that job.I'm not judging,if it was right or
wrong,but I have to read the book! Irish

I'm,originally,from Branford,Conn.The Blackstone Memorial Library,
was there.A man named James Blackstone,donated&had built,a
white marble building,books,and a city block to the town.It was
right,accross,the street from where I lived& played.When I was a
kid,I bet that,I read,at least,one book a dayIt also made a great excuse,to your parents,to get out of your house.You just tell,your parents,that you're going next door,to research,for school.You
wouldn't beleive how many girls,that you can meet in a library!
They are there because they used the same excuse on their
parents! Irish
