    You didn't do nothing Eli, and the day is still young....
    Today, you are the waves of the Pacific, pushing ever eastward. You are the sequoias rising from the Sierra Nevada, defiant and enduring.

      Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

          Looks like the poll is still open, so I did time it correctly.

          Last chance to stuff ballots, erm, vote!

                Ender's Game is a well known book, I heard it mentioned many times, and since it got selected to be the next month's book I thought nothing will go wrong if I read it. It's not long. I'll have plenty of time to study, to fill university documents, etc.

                But noooooo. I had to spend every last second of the last week to read the first book. And the second. And the third. And the fourth. And the fifth. And now the sixth.
                If i'm not accepted to the University. I'll hold all of you responsible.

                  There are, I was reading the sixth when posting the message.
                  Of course that by now I already finished the seventh.

                    Eek. Does that mean I'm responsible for nominating Ender?

                      Hopefully there will be Ender questions on your university applications.

                      After I promised myself I wouldn't do it, I broke down and started reading 'Ender's Shadow'. Now I'm planning to get the others.

                      I've already picked up the three Mars books, although I don't know when I'll get to the second two, or the first one for that matter.

                      Hopefully 'Harsh Mistress' will finally win next month and I can work on clearing my reading list down. It's only one book and I don't think the mood to read more Heinlein will ever strike me again after reading it a second time.
