    (You don't read books a.b.? Are you Posh Spice by any chance? lol)

    I'm not telling you what books are by my bed. You'd all just laugh and make fun of me.

    In all seriousness: "World War Z," "120 Days of Sodom," and at my 7-year-old's request, "The Enchanted Castle" by Edith Nesbit. Never let it be said that I'm not well-rounded.

    The Guardian newspaper and its accompanying two hundred supplements. I'll be reading about the impending recession again again in that, just to cheer myself up. Then later I'll be getting drunk to forget about what I've just been reading.

    Your shades look weird and your jaw a bit mannish.

    I've got a Terry Pratchett book, Wyrd Sisters and a copy of GT on my bedside table.

    BOXER: Blogging cuts into my reading time too but being an insomniac sometimes adds opportunities.

    Although I don't recommend it!

    GINRO: Let me guess...

    Are you reading "Hole In The Bed" by Mister Completely"?

    DAISY: I'll be over soon.

    BEAST: Anything would be an improvement over your Roy Cropper bag.

    SCARLET: Canadian cereal boxes are bilingual.

    A special early morning intellectual challenge.

    MAXI: Ahgobollocks.

    XL: Any tips you can share?

    LEAH: Lay off the sticky toffee pudding or you'll be too well-rounded.

    BETTY: I read the Guardian's "Book" section every weekend but avoid the business section as I don't need another excuse to drink.

    I want to start reading Russell Brand's football column. Could you please ask Geoff what day it's published?

    BOXER: Comedian Larry David was initially attracted to his (ex) wife Laurie because she read People magazine.

    Turns out she became an environmentalist though.

    Larry said, "I thought I married a narcissistic, materialistic kind of princess from Long Island, and it turns out that she completely misrepresented herself."

    MAGO: I see you're making your way through Oprah's Book Club selections.

    CYBERPOOF: And you're going the Cosmo Girl quiz.

    EROS: Shove over on the sofa.

    I'll bring the beer.

    CYBERPOOF: That should say "doing" the Cosmo Girl quiz.

    Russell's football column is published every Saturday. This week, though, he is "away".

    The Hammers were at home and got a clean sheet. Unlike Russell, fnar, fnar!

  19. Old Knudsen2:45 PM, November 15, 2008

    First War and Peace, A Tale of two Cities, old Man and the Sea and .............. who am I kidding? why would I spend a week reading one of those shitty books when I can watch them on the telly for 2 hours?

    Books are for the weak and there is no room on my bed table as all me meds are there.

    KNUDSEN: I see you're mentioned in Julia Child's memoir as a "love interest".

    I was shocked by her account of the "stuffing incident".

    Nightstand has many unread magazines - Macleans, Outside, Explore, The Walrus - but also many read ones. Which reminds me to take the read ones and leave them at the gym and to turn off computer and read the unread ones.

    Also have an unread "Late Nights On Air" by Elizabeth Hay (novel set in NWT) and am re-reading "Cider House Rules" by John Irving. I plan to spend some time tonight with some single malt and finish off at least one book. Maybe the bottle too!

    Thanks to free porn on Internet - no longer have to have some magazines under the bed...

    No that's too advanced for me. I'm doing the one from the High School Musical 3 magazine.

    NWT: I thought of you while I was reading "Late Nights On Air".

    This is a good night for a single malt and porn.

    CYBERPOOF: But if you don't take the Cosmo quiz, how will you find out if he's only after you for your bod?

    GARFY: "Eternal nothingness is fine if you happen to be dressed for it. "
    --Woody Allen

    TONY: You're a martyr.
