7 Day Forecast: 10 Feb 2006

Now reading:

Star Trek: Titan: Orion's Hounds by Christopher L.Bennett
Serenity: The Visual Companion
Moonraker by Ian Fleming

This is the third original James Bond book. I actuallyfind these novels to be fascinating, because thecharacter is portrayed as a lot more psychologicallydamaged than one would expect. Also, since they werewritten as long as 50 years ago, it's an interestinginsight into the cultural mores of the early Cold War,pre-Civil Rights/Sexual Revolution era. Definitely notwhat I was expecting, which is why it was such abargain to find the entire collection for $13(basically, $1 per book!)...

Now playing:

Final Fantasy X-2 - about 50% done...I'm slowly makingprogress
Xenosaga II - I'm about 67% through the bonuslevels...shouldn't be long now...
Lord of the Rings: The Third Age - about 4%...I onlyplayed for about 30 minutes to preview it for afterXeno II
