The Novel 100 is one man's ranking of the 100 greatest novels ever written. I'm a sucker for a list. I love to mark progress by checking stuff off. Given my poor memory, lists are the only way I can remember to do anything. I liked this list so much, I went out and bought the book. The author,...
Look at the ages. 19. 20. 22. 25. 34. 28. 19. Today a female suicide bomber killed 40 or so people. It is an unwanted occupation. We will win when our men and women come home. 20-June1One Soldier was killed and five wounded in three roadside bomb attacks on Coalition force patrols in Diyala province...
From this post, a list of what are considered the 100 best novels, and a question as to how many of them people have read. I don't often go for lists, and I agree that it's hard to decide what constitutes "greatest." But I thought I'd give it a try nonetheless. I actually own a lot of the ones I...
Here are my selections from the list - the bolds ones being the ones I have read and the italicised ones being the ones I've never heard of. I think I have done quite poorly so have highlighted in red the ones that I do own in the hopes of getting my score up. Rank Title Year Author 1 Don Quixote...
In response to Jonathan's message about the 100 best books, below are the ones I've read (those in italics are ones I don't know: Rank Title Year Author 1 Don Quixote 1605, 1630 Miguel de Cervantes 2 War and Peace 1869 Leo Tolstoy 3 Ulysses 1922 James Joyce 4 In Search of Lost Time 1913-27 Marcel...
Jonathan posted about The Novel 100 - the hundred best novels of all time, at least according to the book by Daniel Burt. Obviously there will be disagreements - what, Gone With the Wind but no To Kill a Mockingbird? - but there are a lot of books here that would probably be on anyone's list. I'm...
In response to Jonathan's post about The Novel 100, here's how I measure up. Bold titles are ones I've read (a somewhat-respectable 30 of 100). Some of these came from my (now defunct) resolution to read 1 classic for every 3-4 "other" novels I've chosen to read, but most of them came from required...
Full details here Looks like I have read 37 of them. Rank Title Year Author 1 Don Quixote 1605, 1630 Miguel de Cervantes 2 War and Peace 1869 Leo Tolstoy 3 Ulysses 1922 James Joyce 4 In Search of Lost Time 1913-27 Marcel Proust 5 The Brothers Karamazov 1880 Feodor Dostoevsky 6 Moby-Dick 1851 Herman...
British Museum Thursday today I stood before the Rosetta stone and took a picture *ahem. MOLLY took picture. i pose picture. i steal picture from Molly camera. Therefore, I took picture*. Yes me, Grady, Rosetta Stone. it rocks hardcore. This is today anyway, our adventure through the British Museum...
Do you ever get to wondering who you were in a former life? I never paid too much attention to the reincarnation shenanigan but sometimes you have to wonder about certain things that resonate within you for no apparent reason. For instance on the 25 minute drive to our office it's all farming...

Info about Beau Dozier Of course, we would not be talking about Brady if he did not have the skills of an All-Pro. As one of the NFL's most efficient and intelligent quarterbacks, he knows when to throw the ball deep, dump it off in the slot, or even run with it. Tom's two Super Bowl MVP awards are...
The Miami Dolphins: The Dolphins stepped out early with their pick of Jake Long. This one surprised me because Bill Parcells has a long history of picking defensive guys over their offensive line counterparts. This first pick may hint at how much more control Jeff Ireland (Miami GM) and head coach...
This bands debut single "The Trumpton Riots" from 1986 remains an all time favourite, whilst they never really went away they are once again somewhat back in the limelight with their new album with the great title "CSI:Ambleside" History The band's first single, "The Trumpton Riots", topped the...
It's Sunday afternoon, and I should be outside planting the new little flowers I bought the other day when Jean and I made a trip to Rogers Gardens. It's a lovely day, and I have been outside, we had lunch on the patio at Cheesecake Factory. Great salad!. But back to the gardening, I will do that as...

I was cleaning and organizing the apartment today, when I came upon these things. This one was sitting on a ledge right above my bedroom door. It looks like maybe a lost Christmas ornament, though it has a tiny crystal welded in the front, and there's a little wire stand in the back. It was meant to...
Not everybody can be original all the time; for that matter, nobody can, particularly when it comes to writing… James Joyce, even, despite the seismic effect his unorthodox work had on literature, must have struggled to be original at all times, so too Dostoyevsky, Flaubert, Beckett, Ibsen,...
Tonight's post is dedicated to favorites, and you can probably guess most of mine. Sports: Soccer and Baseball. Since we never had a TV when I was a kid, neither Daddy nor I watched sports on TV when I was growing up. As far as I know, Daddy never played a sport although I believe he did lift...
