yes...totally. Hey rookie, paypal me a quarter. Or maybe I should call you Brittany, because I read that your name is Mr. Cox and that ab-so-LUTE-ly sends me to a Perry Cox place. Sorry about that, Sheila.(You know, cause you're a newbie?) And, don't ask. I won't be your mentor ;)
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Tim Cox - Buffy: Anya, that thing you created burst through solid pavement and ate her dog.
Anya (anguished): Oooh, puppy!

I liked The Life of Pi except the ending, which made me dislike what I'd already read.
Today I finally finished The Remains of the Day only about 3 years after I first started it. Now I feel like I have to reread it again, at the very least I'm going to watch the movie.

Oh, he's on Scrubs. And you wouldn't have to send me a quarter, even if you could. It's a joke...long story. But apparently I could get into the elder stateswoman thing. But I don't mean porn by that.

Yay! Did you like it?
My brother said Life of Pi was really good. I have considered picking it up one day.

PC, I'm not sure. Part of the time I felt like Stevens was showing me what's going on in a room, but I was stuck standing behind him, only able to see the back of his head and an occasional glimpse over his shoulder and I knew that he wasn't giving me the whole story but I just couldn't see around him to get what was going on.
Then other times I felt like I could clearly see what was going on and there was Stevens, with his blinders, firmly seeing what he wanted to and I just wanted to shake him and say "Look! Just LOOK! for one second, be curious for one second!"

That's what's so great about the book! Oh, Stevens.
