Still more honest than the climate science he used in State of Fear! Zing!

I may be misremembering, but didn't Eaters of the Dead have Vikings fighting a lost tribe of caveman monsters? I enjoyed that book, too, but I wouldn't call it historical fiction.

It's just historical fiction, with no interesting sci-fi conceit? If Crichton was hoping that his talent for capturing strong, compelling characters and his effortlessly poetic writing style would carry this, well, I guess I can see why it went unpublished…

Look out, they are in your closets! http://www.harkavagrant.com…

I didn’t like it two weeks ago when it was called "Americas Next Top Hobo", and I didn't like it a month ago when it was called "Hobo Eye for the Straight Guy".

They think you won't play "Moon River," but bam! Second encore!

And I know for a fact that Rex Tillerson has tits…

Next, turn your investigative powers toward the Trump/Russia ties.

That's not even close to being the worst kind of nerd 'round these parts.

I had an old scottish professor who would make martinis sometimes. He would pour gin over ice, wave a closed bottle of vermouth near it, strain and serve with lemon peel.

Yeah, the tagline for Fever Tree is something like "if your G&T is 3/4 tonic, make sure you use the best tonic." Every time I read it, it makes me drunkenly scoff.

Junipero is excellent. If you enjoy that sort of flavor profile, have you tried Citadelle? It's from France (weird, right?), not wildly expensive, and has become my go-to over the past few years.

Here's some neglected advice - if you're trying to get into gin and spend $50 bucks on a bottle of Hendricks to make G&Ts (which really is a good first step) then for God's sake don't skimp on the tonic water. No matter how light and pleasant your gin is, it's gonna have an aftertaste of corn syrup and chemicals if…

What gets me is that the smug bastards called it Monkeyshines No.1 as if the sequel was already a done deal.

Yeah, that bothered me when I wrote it. There is no way to convey if, for example, the current Dowd is A.A. Dowd IV, that this would be a much older person than him. I thought about dropping the "Sr." altogether, especially since I didn't try to do any old-timey shtick in the review, but hey. It's 1 AM here. These…

The Protector should be next on your list, then.

That's unfair, sure, but what really strikes me is how Mitski has somehow become a "sad dude."

Calling Australian a foreign language is a bootable offence.
