• Book Review: GREEN by Ted Dekker

  
  Suspense Novelist — Authority: 118
  Green is the fourth book, or the first, depending on how you look at Ted Dekkers Circle series. Actually, it says "Book Zero" on the jacket, but since Id already read Black , Red , and White , to me its the fourth. Confused? Dont be. Because of the way theyre written, you can start with either Green ...

  GenXXL — Authority: 138
  As the weekend began to unfold I realized why I don’t bet on sports.  It’s too darned risky.  I’ve got Cincinnati nearly losing to UCONN (something I never would have guessed.)  I’ve got Louisiana Tech (who I always forget has more than a women’s basketball team) putting up 35 points on Boise State.  ...

• Thoughts on ABC’s “V” Remake

  
  The Sly Oyster | culture, entertainment, liberal arts, shenanigans — Authority: 446
  V has been the one show I was hoping would redeem this lackluster fall television season.  It is, afterall, based on a popular (cultish?) NBC science fiction show from the early 80s about lizard creations pretending to be humans with nefarious plans for our planet and population.  It seems like an excellent ...

• Kickass Love

  
  raincoaster — Authority: 466
  Truly, there is no justice in a world in which such a dynamite tale of romance hasn’t been made into a Bruce Willis movie (am I showing my age? okay, fine, Michael Bay movie, then. happy now?). I’ve stolen this tender, yet explosive vignette from a 12-year-old copy of the Tatler , and will here retell ...

  Tiny Cartridge — Authority: 602
  “Kaze no Allegory,” from King of Fighters ‘97 Arrange Sound Trax . Thinking about Takenobu Mitsuyoshi’s Street Fighter tribute set my mind to another of my favorite slightly goofy fighting-game related tracks, one that, to me, is synonymous with KOF . I love that it’s a meditative, sort of melancholy ...

  I have been reading a lot of young adult fiction of late and have also found myself interested in children’s stories; new and old, classic and experimental, picture books and longer stories.  (Having small children will  do that to you I guess.)
