Luckily, the ADA does not apply to individuals not employed by the establishment, so we should all feel free to loudly mock those that insist on bringing animals into restaurants. I mean, unless that would be a civil rights violation, in which case I would never...PryTo wrote:This is the funniest thing I've read all year.

Re: What are you currently reading?
Someone bought my book in the past month (I know because I got my first $0.35 royalty in almost 9 months). Was it an RMer?
I started reading The Art of Fielding last night and will probably finish it in the next few days; it's a quick read.

I'm almost done with the Rabbit novels. They have changed my life. Everyone should read them at some point.

Anybody around here read Camus's The Fall? Any opinions on it one way or the other?

Re: What are you currently reading?
Nowhere near as memorable as The Plague or The Stranger. But to be fair, I've only read The Fall once (The Plague at least twice, The Stranger close to ten times now). If you haven't read those, they're better starting points for Camus.durdencommatyler wrote:Anybody around here read Camus's The Fall? Any opinions on it one way or the other?

4/5 stars for The Art of Fielding. An enjoyable read, but I wish it delved deeper into some of its more troubling themes.

The Stranger is one of my favourite books ever, on the other hand, I thought The Myth of Sisyphus was terrible.
