• Cannonball #5: One True Thing by Anna Quindlen

  
  Of a Golden Age — Authority: 126
  Twenty-four-year-old Ellen Gulden is hardened and jaded, her opinions black and white, set in stone the way only young people can manage. Like all of Anna Quindlen’s writing, Ellen struck me as a shade of Quindlen’s real life as a gifted, brilliant young woman, and the real guts of One True Thing lie in ...

• Cannonball #4: Flipped by Wendelin Van Draanen

  
  Of a Golden Age — Authority: 126
  In between serious grown-up novels, I decided to pick up a copy of Wendelin Van Draanen’s Flipped when I saw it at my favorite Goodwill. It cleansed my palate after the intense Isaac Bashevis Singer period piece from my previous review, and it took me back to my life as a precocious thirteen-year-old girl, the ...

• Writing The Marvel U

  
  Stinkbrown — Authority: 123
  I have this crazy way of thinking now, where I analyse any title I’m reading and I wonder what I would do if put in charge of it. I look at writers who crack the comic writing business and suddenly are put in front of a blank screen and asked to churn out a Merry Marvel page and I see mixed success. Most writers ...

  By Miles Marshall Lewis The So What Band ambles on stage with a cool saunter worthy of Reservoir Dogs gangsters, dressed in downscale suits less Brooks Brothers than JC Penney.

• Coming soon to an airport near you!

  
  Wide Awake in Wonderland — Authority: 119
  Completely superfluous and unnecessary processes dreamed up by the United States Transportation Security Administration (TSA) in order to make themselves appear useful and/or alleviate job boredom!

• Be Careful of What You Wear on Leg Days!

  
  Wish Everyone Good Health. — Authority: 465
  As gym instructors, we mostly go through the whole day without much interaction with anyone else, save for the one or two cute chicks who need help with lunges once in a while. I had thought it would be another boring afternoon in the gym watching a group of middle-aged women on the treadmill, but [...]

• Cannonball #2: The Tenants by Bernard Malamud

  
  Of a Golden Age — Authority: 126
  This book, this book. I’m not even sure where to start or how to do it justice. Most people recognize Bernard Malamud only if you say, “He wrote The Natural .” I’ve never read the book but I do love the movie (one of the last truly great Redfords, back-to-back with Out of Africa ), and I can comfortably say ...

  Of a Golden Age — Authority: 126
  I am a tall woman, and I’ve carried an oscillating 10 to 60 extra pounds since graduating from high school. A friend and I were talking about books one day, and she said something about She’s Come Undone , assuming I’d read it. When she found out I hadn’t, she said, as though handing me a precious truism, “ ...

• DBFOTW: Wabash Cannonball

  
  Red Dirt Kings — Authority: 127
  Oklahoma State waves wheat. Texas has Hook ‘Em Horns. Aggies have a list of gameday nonsense longer than all other Big 12 schools combined. Kansas State, our foes from the North this weekend, has Wabash Cannonball. No, it’s not really all that douchey per se, but K-State has such an odd, vile fanbase that they ...

  Mix Tape Therapy — Authority: 414
  For those who proclaim print is dead, I say “Foolish ones! Have you not heard of the Cannonball Read at Pajiba dot com?”  And then most of you will scratch and shake your heads ‘no’, and I will heavily sigh in that dramatic fashion I always do when I’m being patronizing, and point you in the direction of ...

  Ez az 1959-ben készült album nem csak Miles Davis, de valószínűleg minden idők legkelendőbb jazz lemeze. Amerikában háromszoros platina, s a Rolling Stones Magazin 500-as listáján is a 12. helyezést kapta. Aki nem kedveli a veszteségmentes formátumot, az a Fórum Feltöltések rovatában AlFipapa ...
