Okay, I'll admit it. I started to read Fallout. It's very cool. The artwork and layout is very nicely done! I've only gotten about 10 or 15 pages into it, but I got a real case of the giggles over seeing Leo Szillard in the bathtub ...

I've got Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus in mine--no, wait! Now I remember-that's what I flushed. Sorry. Just sleepy.

That's on my "to read" pile.

I have read "Mars and Venus on a Date," which is really quite useful.

Really? How so? Do you feel like you can communicate more effectively after reading the booK? Or just know what is typical weirded-out behavior of the dating game?

Headsplice hasn't responded. My next pick was JoZ, but this person has been inactive since March, so I pick again and I get

Torrere

So let's see if we get august going now.

I don't think I'm going to get Genius finished before the end of July!

(I'm doing my best too ... it's just been too busy to read at work. Also, now that I'm past the Manhattan Project the story is bogging and my interest is waning)

If we can't get someone to choose for August ... rather than taking a month off, what about having each person interested in continuing to participate choose one book, then after a bit of time, we vote ... however you can't vote for your own book for choice #1, but it can be ordered as either #2 or #3? (I was thinking three votes per person, no matter how many books are in the pool ... )

That sounds like a good idea, wolf. What say the masses? I am itching to start...

Clodfobble 07-25-2004 09:49 AM

Sounds good to me. My suggestion is "Lamb," before anyone else picks it. :)

Trilby 07-25-2004 09:54 AM

need more info--"Lamb" by who???? (m)??????

Am practically illiterate!

Clodfobble 07-25-2004 09:56 AM

Sorry, it was suggested a few months earlier but barely lost the vote.

Trilby 07-25-2004 10:02 AM

I totally vote for that one! What say we all?

wolf 07-25-2004 10:17 AM

So we have something else to vote on ... Half Asleep in Frog Pajamas, by Tom Robbins

Yeah, I'm totally up for Lamb too ...

Clodfobble 08-09-2004 09:58 PM

Ok, so we've got three votes for "Lamb" and one vote for "Frog Pajamas" (with Wolf voting once in each category :)). Unless someone speaks up in the next 24 hours or so, I'm going to start a thread on "Lamb."

I was wondering if this was still open to join?
