On A Reading Kick

Natalia with me a few days this weekend and still her tooth has not fallen. Maybe this coming week. She has been a little sick but nothing major. Only games played this week was Scrabble Junior with Natalia and my mom and I like this game as it helps Natalia read words, spelling and combining letters to make words. Also today I am trying out my new electric smoker and hope it works out as it requires less work to maintain during the winter months. As far as weather up here, it has warmed up a bit and no new storms expected in at least a week.

This week I got no running in or been to the climbing gym. I did however read 3 books this past week. Read Little House on the Prairie and as like the first one n the series this follows the Ingalls journey out west and always find such reading relaxing. Next I picked up Candide by Voltaire from my collections of classic books and also found this title entertaining and an insight at the times then. Last I picked up Jailbird by Kurt Vonnegut at a thrift store and quickly read it. Vonnegut does have some books I like while others are bland for me. This one was rather bland but also an insight of the times it was based on. My current book, I am re reading The Man in the High Castle.

"What can be more absurd than choosing to carry a burden that one really wants to throw to the ground? To detest, and yet to strive to preserve our existence? To caress the serpent that devours us and hug him close to our bosoms till he has gnawed into our hearts?"

- Voltaire

As far as comic books, I continue reading Howard the Duck as well as The Death Defying Doctor Mirage. I have added Mystery Girl to my normal reads to see how the story develops. As far as classic comic books I read Fantastic Four #49 which introduces Galactus. This few issues have brought us so much used in the future universe.  This week I am expecting a few graphic novels I picked up used. I am waiting for Rogue Trooper, more Judge Dredd titles and I am jumping in with Sandman Volume 1. I have high hopes for all these.

Don't forget to download the latest No Agenda Show to filter through all the lies and misinformation the mainstream media pumps out there. I can guarantee you will be a much informed, entertained and a happier person for knowing the truth from the Guardians of Reality (John & Adam).
