Assorted stuffs
Book Foo!
Finished: Otherland, Vol 3: Mountain of Black Glass by Tad Williams
Started: The Paladin of Souls by Lois McMaster Bujold
No detailed thoughts since it's part of a series and one part left to go. Still enjoying it though.
Started and Finished: Little Brother, by Cory Doctorow (available online, and read that way)
Thoughts behind the cut, not especially spoilery, though. ( Read more... )
Finished: Ventus, by Karl Schroeder (available free online, but I read it in book form)
Started: 13 Great Stories of Science-Fiction (short story collection, mostly stories from the 50s)
Ventus thoughts behind the cut. Not really spoilery. Short version: Quite liked it, will have to check out more by the author.

What else? TVwise, Lost was good this week, BSG better than the last few, and Doctor's Daughter had some good moments but overall didn't satisfy. Don't really feel a need to go into it any more than that, though.
Haven't done one for quite a while, so let's do another Wiki Random Battle!

Round 2: Gaston Leroux, Canadian politician vs Richard Beesly, British Rower
Results::

Round 3: Baeocystin, a psychadelic mushroom component vs ProgressSoft, a software development company
( Read more... )
Lifewise, well, nothing else really new. When is anything? My life unchanges. Yes, my life is so static that it forces 'unchange' to somehow be a real verb.
Edit: Oh, and it's around that time of year for Networks to announce their schedules. A few networks have already announced their slates, and this site I've found has given me a good roundup of them in the past.
