Anybody read a good book lately?

[SunMo]

tell me about it with the spectrum of emotions, i laughed, giggled, chuckled and smiled knowingly.  i ran the full range.

[Diomedes]

No stiffy, no full spectrum.

[Sgt PSN]

is a stiffy an emotion? 

[General_Failure]

An animated one, yes.

this was written by a buddy of mine from high school.  comes out later this month. 

[Diomedes]

You've read this?

[Sgt PSN]

read?  no.  it's not out yet.  but i'll order a copy though.  but i know the story....at least most of it and it should make for a good read.  there's a video preview of the book at the bottom of the bottom of the page. 

i didn't meet moore until high school so i didn't really know him during his "troubled" years but when the light finally came on for this guy, he turned into a serious over achiever.  this dude has accomplished more in the last 10 years than i probably would given 2 life times.  smart guy, but laid back and easy going.  one of those dudes that's so likable, you hate him.  lol.

blah blah blah

So I immediately went out and bought Contagious, by Scott Sigler. It's about alien invasion, so, yeah. It blends science and science fiction in an intelligent and totally entertaining way (so far) and is providing exactly what I needed.

This book was farging awesome. I mean, it's ridiculous but it's all army explosion tough guy beating alien mauling mind control nuclear holocaust amazingness. Well written, completely enjoyable and the first book I've read in forever (maybe since World War Z) that got me all fired up to smash some imaginary bad guys.

I recently listened to World War Z on tape and found it pretty weak.  It was written about as well as the cut scenes in a good video game.  So it was mildly entertaining, but not worth half the hype it got from fanboys like you.

You need to shut your whore mouth.

Also, books on tape were meant for Charleton Heston reading The Old Man and the Sea, not some schlub (or group of schlubs) reading World War Z. Medium matters.

you are to zombies what mds is to the wire

[rjs246]

What can I say? I can't wait for those fargers to a)destroy humanity and b)provide me with a guilt free avenue to take advantage of my gun lust.

[Diomedes]

Move to Arizona and you can shoot at trespassing Mexicans all you like.  They're kinda like zombies by the time they get across the desert.

[rjs246]

I said "guilt free". Now if they were French Canadian, then I'd be on board.

We should all get together and brush our teeth. Naked.
