Cathleen... no I wouldn't... I like books by Mark Brandon Read (crime novels based loosely on fact) and stuff like "The Universe in a nutshell" and "A brief history of time" by Stephen Hawking... or anything on theoretical physics... stuff like that. (of course, nobody talks about that stuff in the techno-geek thread..) I'm not into poetry and artsy-fartsy stuff ...

go figure.. I'm an artist, but I reallllllllly don't play well with other artists, especially literary types... actually, I loathe them... they're so freakin transparent...

it'd take me a really long time to explain it and I'm probably going to get enough slack as it is for what I've already said so I'll just shut-up..

Somehow I think Hawking & Wodehouse probably have more in common than Wodehouse & crime stories, though he did do some mystery spoofs. I like Wodehouse mostly because he doesn't take anything seriously. I see enough serious stuff at work, so I don't go for the intense movies or thriller novels, because I get to see way too much of that already. I probably read more biological sciences than physics in my spare time, but really like stuff like the books Oliver Sachs has written, and people like Desmond Morris. Also anything that is silly, like the early Matt Groening, and Lynda Barry.

I don't have much use for the 'literary types' myself, except the real world authors, like Ice & Mr Toes.
