I was wondering if the three people–could be one due to those damnable dynamic IP addresses ISPs love so dearly–that visit are currently reading anything good. My reading list is ever growing–all fiction for now–but could stand for some fresh contributions. Here’s what I’m reading, what are you reading?
Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities. —Voltaire
There are men - now in power in this country - who do not respect dissent, who cannot cope with turmoil, and who believe that the people of America are ready to support repression as long as it is done with a quiet voice and a business suit.—John Lindsay

Booting a server that has been off for 419 days and sitting in my attic. Fingers crossed. # 14 mins ago

reading .= Hunter S Thompson
reading .= Chuck Palahniuk
}
There’s even a couple syntax errors in there for good measure.
Whoa! Some heavy hitters there! I’ve certainly enjoyed some Zinn and Chomsky in my time; you might like Saul Alinsky and Hannah Arendt, found they dovetail nicely with the above. Thompson is straight crazy and I’ve been meaning to pick up some Palahniuk. eBay here I come!
Oh, is it the missing ‘;’ and the one missing ‘.’ on the first line of the array? Asked the non-flash programmer.
Thanks for the recommendations. I’ve got a couple 5hr flights coming up next week, so the timing is perfect.
You were right about the errors, but be careful using the words “flash” and “programmer” in the same sentence . . . those web purists can sniff out comments like that from a mile away! It’s a legit OOP! I swear!
Flash-Programmer! LOL!
It came to mind that if you are in the mood for some fiction along the lines of the aforementioned you might like Scott Bradfield and Russell Banks. Bradfield’s The History of Luminous Motion is one of my favorites and Bank’s Continental Drift is heavy and inspired.
