Thanks for doing the meme. How come all of a sudden, I'm green and not purple?
ReplyDeleteFreakonomics is a very enjoyable book, I read it over a day and I am a *very* slpw reader usually. Check out "Blink" if you enjoy it too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tag Ezzie. I agreed with you on Calvin and Hobbes. :-) I miss that series.
ReplyDeleteRebecca - Now imagine catching up on a week's worth of 100 blogs... ;)
ReplyDeleteShoshana - My pleasure.... LOL. I actually had purple, but changed it - it came from the Ramblings blog which is green, so... :)
IYWI - Yeah, I once read a few pages at someone's house... then we were leaving. :(
JA - Yah - hmmm, it makes a lot of sense that you'd be into it, actually... ;) (think about what it's about)
Spell it out for me, Ezzie. :-)
ReplyDeleteI think that your blog name and the names of the main characters are fitting. :) So are a lot of the discussions C & H have on their way down the mountains on their sled... or the ones between C & his Dad.
ReplyDeleteNo? :)
True. :-) I always enjoyed Calvin's musings about Santa. "Santa Claus: kindly old elf, or CIA spook?"
ReplyDeleteI'm going to just keep quiet and hope I don't get memed again. I want to write more about Israel!
ReplyDeleteAmishav - See, that's why I didn't pick you this time! ;)
ReplyDeleteJA - Hehe. Ah, too bad Patterson doesn't like when people post his comics...
Freakonomics is an excellent read. Facinating.
ReplyDeletei like this meme... i've been looking for more of a variety of books to read lately.
ReplyDeletei think i should probably start with 'green eggs & ham'. (for some reason my parents didn't let me have that one. maybe it's because they didn't want me reading about treif meat. weird.)
Green Eggs & Ham is awesome... :) (Ah, Dr. Seuss, how we love you so...)
ReplyDeletemy favourite was 'one fish two fish red fish blue fish' (gefilte fish?)
ReplyDelete;)
