Started John D. MacDonald's The Deep Blue Good-By last night. Just finished it about 2 hours ago. Now I'm going to read some pulp submarine book. It's in the other room and I'm feeling too lazy to get up and get it right now. I think it's The Taking of the King by Blish. It's gotten 4 stars on avera...

More window cleaning (and check out that gorgeous Houston cloudless sky) :) Many a day I sat in senior English class on one of those cloudless days out in NW Houston and stared at downtown rising up over the horizon.

Finally got the book back Monday and should be finished tonight or tomorrow afternoon. I've gotten so in...

Besides, I'm a Flickr pro, so I can choose whatever size I prefer. I didn't think anybody still used 800x600 resolution so figured a ...
