Anyone have any favorite books or stories for tweens?

T. H. White's The Once And Future King.

Just got my copy yesterday.

Happy Veteran's Day! I hope you all have an exceptional one!

Salute!

My wife got terribly upset and angry when she found all those letters.

I doubt I'll ever get her to play Scrabble with me ever again.

Did you know that absolutely nothing spelled backwards is: "gnihton yletulosba" which, ironically, means absolutely nothing!

I was on a Zoom call the other day and I told a joke but no one laughed.

It turns out I'm not even remotely funny.

What goes "ninety-nine clump, ninety-nine clump"?

A centipede with a wooden leg!

Just popping in to say hi from way back. Things are shitty what with Ukraine and Palestine but aside from that, hanging in there. I do miss old rush forum and friends from there. Also I’m not so negative and that comes from time and therapy. Any older trf peeps—hi 👋  tree duck, trout man and Jack Aubrey, sulky sue, 1001 and Michelle come to mind instantly…life is weird and I’ve let go of a lot of shit. Hoping this finds you all well 🩷

Well whatever… miss you all. 

Hello, Dear Dweezil! It's terrific to see you again and I have missed you a lot.

It's so nice to have this revival of one of my favorite shows ever! I find I'm laughing myself silly over this new show and I am loving it. Truly, madly, and deeply!

If only I knew what to do with those tossed salads and scrambled eggs!

Wes Anderson's Asteroid City. I absolutely love Wes Anderson and I think it would be the "bomb diggity" (as the kids say nowadays) if he were to collaborate with the Cohen Brothers on a project.

I've never seen Titanic or The Godfather. The boat sinks, the boy dies, big deal! And I don't like Marlon Brando.

Creepy

100% agreed! This downright grotesque AI "art" is still firmly entrenched in the uncanny valley.

Right now I'm reading House Of Leaves (The Remastered And Full-Color Edition) by Mark Z. Daniielewski. I was intrigued by some reviews I stumbled upon as I was by it's description of "ergodic fiction" and decided to get a copy. I'm not too far in, maybe page 45, but it's good so far. I do recommend y'all look into it.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

My Doc told me my DNA is backwards.

I replied: "And?"

I have to get a new one.

 

Suggestions? I try to limit tech in my life.

 

 

I recommend Samsung or Motorola.

I've never owned one! 

Good for you! Seriously. I wish I didn't have to have one.

A belated Happy Birthday to you, sir! I truly hope that it was both awesome & Blessed!

That song was on "Mr. Bad Example" which was released in 1991 and the movie came out in 1995.

Okay. Disregard my last. Thank you kindly for the correction.

I am reading Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim by David Sedaris and Anthem: Rush in the 70s by Martin Popoff simultaneously.

How is Anthem? Has it revealed anything we didn't already know?

I was entertained for a couple of hours. Check it out, it's pretty good! It's also pretty amazing how they made Nicolas Cage look almost exactly like Bela Lugosi in some shots.

Joe Picket on Prime. Really good show!!
