For some reason In The Garden of Beasts doesn't look interesting at all.  Maybe I'm Nazi'd out.

Alas, having never seen Entourage, I can't confirm or deny that.

Most of what I got was: thank God for women's lib.

SPOILER

I started the Foundation books in the wrong place (Prelude to Foundation), and then read Foundation and was like, "lol where are all the women in this book?"

Intriguing!  Adding it to my list.

I devoured Devil in the White City.  So good.

I read Augie a couple of years ago and just hated it.  There were good parts but it was mostly 20-something dude-whining while he hooks up with multiple beautiful women.

I'm pretty terrible at games, so I could never play online or anything, but there is no shame in using easy settings when they're available as far as I'm concerned.  That's how I got through Uncharted 2.

The beauty of gender swapping is that I've managed to jettison most of the "Tuxedo" part of "Tuxedo Mask."  Suits are either expensive or super hard to make.  I feel your pain.

I had to miss the first hour of posting to sit through training for filling in a form.  An hour worth of training.  To fill in a form.

I'm still reading The Alexandria Quartet, currently in about the middle of Balthazar.  I made up my mind that if I got too bored with any of it I would stop, since it would just be abandoning a series rather than not finishing a book, which I find extremely hard to do.  Still, if I do finish, I think I'm going to take
