16989. PelleNilsson - 10/13/2005 3:38:40 PM Which reminds me that I have two books by your Booker prize winner: Copernicus and Kepler. 16990. Macnas - 10/13/2005 3:53:26 PM What do you think? 16991. PelleNilsson - 10/13/2005 5:00:38 PM I had never heard of Banville when I bought the books. I thought they were popular biographies. But of course they are literary "biographies" with a lot of poetic licence. Powerful, though, and his language is evocative. 16992. Macnas - 10/13/2005 5:21:32 PM Yes, that is his strength. His novels are fine examples of how to use the language. 16993. Magoseph - 10/13/2005 7:14:26 PM Well, Mac must be home now and I missed him.
Hello, Moties! 16994. Ms. No - 10/13/2005 8:59:28 PM Hi Magos!
16995. Magoseph - 10/13/2005 9:01:25 PM I was waiting as you can see for someone to say hello to me.
How very nice of you to do so! 16996. Magoseph - 10/13/2005 9:03:17 PM I'm watching the market--I'm nervous. 16997. Jenerator - 10/13/2005 10:06:38 PM Does anyone 16998. Jenerator - 10/13/2005 10:06:45 PM want to 16999. Jenerator - 10/13/2005 10:06:52 PM make a 17000. Jenerator - 10/13/2005 10:07:00 PM run for it?? 17001. Jenerator - 10/13/2005 10:07:20 PM No??!! 17002. Jenerator - 10/13/2005 10:07:47 PM This means I have to enjoy my meaningless victory alone! 17003. Ms. No - 10/13/2005 10:37:42 PM Aaaaahhh!!!!!
I can't believe I missed that!!! Hell, I was even looking for it on Thursday figuring I'd miss it and now here I was within reach and didn't even notice.
Congrats, Jen! 17004. Ms. No - 10/13/2005 10:38:25 PM Mago,
What's happening with the market? I never know any news until I leave work unless something huge happens and my co-workers come tell me.
17005. Jenerator - 10/13/2005 11:05:38 PM Thanks MsNo.
;-) 17006. Magoseph - 10/14/2005 12:05:11 AM Hi, Jen.
Ms. No--not much happened at the end, just various fears being expressed. 17007. wonkers2 - 10/14/2005 12:13:32 AM The market ain't looking very good--higher interest rates, housing bubble, growing deficit, troubled U.S. car companies, high oil and natural gas prices, White House in disarray, etc, etc. 17008. Jenerator - 10/14/2005 12:27:27 AM Speaking of cars, this will be my next purchase:
Dodge Magnum.
