I really like Milk Duds. I dunno why, exactly. They are mysteriously attractive.<\/p>\n

I have over 100 stars in Mario Galaxy 2.<\/p>\n

I had a thought. A bit of a callback to that Dark Tower post<\/a>. A few months before I read the Dark Tower series, I read Ringworld<\/a>. It is a good book. It is good sci fi. It explores several interesting ideas, as sci fi should, and is entertaining. I think Ringworld is an example of a case where deus ex machina could have been a problem, but decidedly wasn’t, a contrast to The Dark Tower Series. It is a bit unfair to compare a single book to a whole series (I haven’t read any of the Ringworld sequels) but Dark Tower makes me appreciate the achievement of Ringworld more, so I thought I’d share.<\/p>\n

I just started reading American Gods<\/a>. I like it so far, mostly, but I’m not very far. Don’t think I’ve read Neil Gaiman before, so we’ll see. I’ll let you know when I finish, if I have any strong feelings. Progress might be slow, however, as Lauren arrives for the summer tomorrow.<\/p>\n
