And it would have been easy to cut the 100 pages out of this 771 page beauty. Maybe Simmons was intentionally being long-winded to echo the prose styles of Charles Dickens and Wilkie Collins. If so, I would have appreciated it if he had not bothered with the effort.

Fire buttons for the head-mounted lasers.

I’ll probably keep watching, but fuck this show. It’s like they are trying to be as provocative as possible now, for shock value.

Or get a titanium skull before you do. If the helmet fails, you’re still okay.

“I got the sales organization. I got the muscle to shove enough of this factory so far up your stupid wop ass that you’ll shit snow for a year.”

I’ve got a really good horror story,and it’s particularly terrifying because it’s true. In countries all over the world, including our own, children, many of them just like you, are abducted and sold into the world of underground sex trafficking.

Tom Cavanagh is confirmed for season two.

I saw her hosting SNL and I thought she was one of the best hosts in a very long time. The sad thing is aside from a few roles, it seems like she is constantly being cast (or chooses the roles of) the big girl physical comedy film.

I’ve read “Vurt” at least three times. Noon deserves more praise and attention.

What didn’t you understand the first seven times you read Cryptonomicon?
