QUOTE (Signals1982 @ Nov 16 2005, 11:31 PM) Awesome. I will see this. Is that sad? If it is, we can weep together!!. That is definitely on my Christmas list.

So THAT's why Sodoff hasn't been around much lately!!!!! Looks interesting. I bought the 'Chronicles' book for Pauline's birthday last month. Quite good actually, surprisingly little padding.

I've never seen the TV adaptation so I can't judge it. The film was OK, but I can't imagine what it must have been like for anyone who hadn't read the book first. Great series of books though. For years a poem from the second one (I think) constitued one of all time favourite quote - "Here there lies a toppled God His fall was not a small one We did but build his pedestal A narrow and a tall one" There remains but one question - Were the Bene Gesserit the original Spice Girls? Stop throwing things at me guys, that's not fai...OUCH!!

It's a co-incidence that you should quote 'Red Lenses', R.G., because mine concerns another of the 'Red' songs. As we know, Presto was the only album not represented on the R30 tour (Madra ducks as all the drum anoraks start murmering about the Scars section in the drum solo), but what most of us don't know is that Geddy and Alex wanted to do a track from it, but their partner flatly refused. During one meeting, Alex cried out in frustration Damm, why not Red Tide Neil?

Another wee pointer - It's the opening two lines of a song not done on the R30 tour. It has, however, featured on at least one previous live album.

QUOTE (dweezil @ Nov 12 2005, 09:02 PM) First, my opinion here doesn't matter. Yes, it does Dweez. A lot. Sometimes you make it hard for people to respect what you say, but on the few occasions you let your guard down, what you have to say is clearly intelligent, well thought out and relevant. QUOTE Second, even if it did, as I have agreed with Mr. Rosso, it's too much like English class. I read books for my enjoyment, not to debate the content. I don't know how other education systems work, but here we tended to read solely to gain points for exams. When reading and studying, I never considered what the author meant or what the relevance or not of the book was, I studied with one question foremost in my head. "What's going to get me an A or a B?" The whole idea of a book club is to revisit books and study them not for an exam, or for a teacher, or for a parent, but for yourself. I'm in.

QUOTE Shite, Goober Told Terry We Listen, Eh, Hack The Engine Barn!! 4-3-6-4-8 5-3-5-9 Punctuation for dramatic effect only, word structure is as on lyric sheet

Went with Hemmingway - The Lion, The Witch etc. is part of a longer sieries (Chronicles of Narnia), while Hemmingway is self contained. Having said that, I found "Lion......" more enjoyable when I read it last, but Ernest might be a better bet for some serious discussion.

QUOTE (physics23 @ Nov 11 2005, 08:24 AM) After that, sullysue, we'll do a TRF group read of The Old Man and the Sea, maybe. Physics, that's a good idea - Our own little book club?. I'd certainly be up for that.

I was inspired by this rather fascinating exchange last week, and while playing about the other night, I came up with this. (You can make up your stories, I don't want to lose any friends ). Shite, Goober Told Terry We Listen, Eh, Hack The Engine Barn!!
