Somehow over the last five or so years, based on conversation snippets and the odd extended pm-volley, you’ve come to know me almost eerily well.

I like this book a lot.

read her stuff that i linked in the guns thread. best analysis i’ve seen anywhere on the issue.

Currently reading Carlo Ravelli's Reality is Not What It Seems. he is a dope physicist from Italia. great translation by someone.....

zinn and the art of road bike maintenance

my bike is actually a hybrid i bought for the dc traffic, and the mountain bike repair book would be more fitting i suppose, but this one covers what i need to do so far.

And my own writing, which is actually getting an audience these days.

You read your own writing? Like... for fun?

No, I read it because I'm writing it. Editing and all that.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah so nice to see you back!!!!

Atomic City Girls by Janet Beard. Has a cool title and the synopsis sounded quite interesting. Focusing on the young women, many just out of high school who worked and lived in Oak Ridge, Tennessee in the same facility where American scientists were constructing the atomic bomb. Its historical fiction, but the book includes many actual photographs from the area. Enjoying it so far.

Just finished The Box Man by Kobo Abe, an extremely weird 1974 novel from Japan. http://rxttbooks.blogspot.com/2018/0...n-my-mind.html

Reading The Devil in the White City. I haven't heard any updates on the movie that is/was going to be directed by Martin Scorsese.

Finally finished The Two Towers this weekend. Up next, Return of the King.

so i had to exchange the previous book lol

now it’s this one



and yeah it has a good section on v brakes which the othe one lacks

pity it’s not on kindle! but i guess the paper format absorbs grease better.

Finished Haruki Murakami's latest non-fiction work, Absolutely on Music: Conversations with Seiji Ozawa

fucking awesome.

Viv Albertine's Clothes, Clothes, Clothes. Music, Music, Music. Boys, Boys, Boys, a really good read, sounding so honest.
