I tried that but the shingles got all floppy and kept falling through the rafters.
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
It'll probably need around five layers.

Now on The Glass Teat by Harlan Ellison. A series of essays and columns that he wrote in the late 60s in the Los Angeles Free Press (FREEP).

I finished a HUGE book, Haunted America. Then i knocked out The Appian Way by Robert Kaster, an academic roadie about the ancient roads of Italy and all the history surrounding it.
I started reading The Songlines by Bruce Chatwin, about an Englishman going down to Oz and trying and earn enough trust of the white-hating Aborigines to let him hang out and learn about the ancient Songlines that the natives have been singing since the dream time. I will finish that one, but first, im going to crank out a simple book for fun, Ghosts of New England.
After that...who knows. I have a few to choose from (this is just ONE pile).

The louder the monkey, the smaller its balls.
Nice selection. I'm doing the home is where your stuff is, so the Library must be my home. Downloading the books to the Nook from the Libraries here (still have the cards from the 3 Libraries in NYC too). Came in handy in the winter of 2012-13 when we were snowed in for 3 weeks...
Now beginning San Francisco Noir and Los Angeles Noir.

My son has summer homework, he has to read two books and and do a report on each. He picked 'Beloved' by Toni Morrison which, I read back in 1989 before there was a public Internetwork and, 'A Choice of Weapons' by Gordon Parks.
I am currently reading the Gordon Parks autobiography first and then I will re-read 'Beloved'.

At the moment I'm reading Train: Riding the Rails That Created the Modern World-from the Trans-Siberian to the Southwest Chief but I doubt I'll get very far into it before I have to return it over the weekend.
