Heheh... Binkie, you really are a military geek, aren't you? Hey, there's nothing wrong with that, it's just usually a preoccupation I associate with nerdy boys. I have a lot of friends like that. You know, you've got your Vietnam geek, WWII geek, Submarine geek... History + weapons and tactics often makes for interesting reading, I'll go along with that, but it's sometimes sad when you get these guys who actually dream of performing great feats in battle when they have no concept of what it's like, or even the politics of it. That's what games are for, I guess.

But I digress...

I'm just starting on Kurt Vonnegut's Timequake, which looks to be another cerebral and highly amusing book by one of my favourite authors. Inbetween that I treat myself with morbid morsels from The Complete Tales and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe, which my clever sister recently bought for me in London.
