Whew! I hate when real invisible boys are in the bathroom! :VeryScared:


I wouldn't mind if he'd clean the damn thing.


"Are You My Mother" was my favorite book until I was say, 6.

I just finished “Crazy Horse and the Real Reason for the Battle of the Little Big Horn” by Ehanaman. Next on the list is Davis McCullough’s “1776”.

I've read every book in the Library of Congress and am now just twiddling my thumbs waiting for them to get the next batch of books ready for me.

Next up on my list is Stewart Brand's book, Whole Earth Discipline: An Ecopragmatist Manifesto

Brand - who some will recognize as the founder of the Whole Earth Catalog (an early green-minded effort), alarms many of his friends by concluding:
- Nuclear power is green
- Cities are green
- Genetic engineering is green (????)
- Geo-engineering is in the cards.....

I'm personally wondering whether or not Brand dropped too much acid in the 60s ---- but I'll withold my conclusion until I finish his book.

Let us know how the book is, bailey bud. I'm always a little leary of books with "manifesto" in the title.

Shanna the she-devil looks interesting TPP. Does it have more pictures inside?

If you want to be, press one. If you want not to be, press 2

Republicans are red, democrats are blue, neither of them, gives a flip about you.

Looks like a comic book, so I'd feel pretty confident guessing "yes" :thumbsup:

bb - thanks for mentioning this book - it's on my to-read list now (along with JMC's The Science of Liberty)!

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
