I request a copy of the book from one of you.

Also, Dylan - I believe you will like your birthday present.
Is it sex?

Because if it's sex I don't want it.








Yes I do.

Nice. Timeline was great but the movie sucked.

And James Clavell is great. I have his whole Asian Saga. My girlfriend also got me the made-for-TV movie of Shogun, and we're watching it right now. It's really good, and a nice recap of the book.

Edit: Typhoid - Me, Dylan, and Becky all have it. I'm in the middle of the third one right now though.

I like James Clavell. I've only read shogun and king rat, shogun's lying in the back of my car right now. Is the made-for-tv series really good? Gonna try finding it..

Is Tai-Pan up to shogun standards?


I'll write some about myself but only if it is asked of me.

Well than tell us about yourself.
I know or think you migrated from AGB, and that KillerGremlin has a secret thing for you since he thinks you are so awesome, a fact he reminds me of like once a week.

Haha, really once a week? I think I mentioned that Seth was on AGB and that he is a pretty chill guy...I probably wouldn't give him a bj unless I was really drunk though...

Zen is a sexy guy too. I'd like to hear more about Zen, although I know he lives in paradise and is a total ladies man.

I loved Timeline as well. Remember the double-slit experiment that he writes about that proves the existence of the multiverse? He took the diagrams and descriptions straight from The Fabric of Reality. That's actually where I heard of it, from Crichton's bibliography.

Hate to bump this thread, but was better than starting a new one.
Just curious about DarkMaster, like as long as he has been here, I really don't know much about him.
Except he lives on the other side of Canada comparatively to the rest of GT, and I think name is Scott?
There was something in this thread, but don't expect me to read.

Today I got an e-mail explaining that I was nominated for some University Service Award within my program and that I won it.

I get $400 towards my tuition.

So that was random and unexpected.

Do you first need to pay an amount of money to an African bank account?

I didn't even know about this thread. It started before I was able to come back, and even when I did come back I didn't post regularly until this past month since I was always away every weekend.

GM, that had to be the most brilliantly hilarious response I have ever seen from you...

Isn't it at the edge of the Universe or something like that?

Gather round children and I'll tell you a tale. A tale of old Teuth and his crazy pal Dale.

Well, Dale was a space pirate, and a good one at that. He stole a sparkily crate from a Snarphax craft's vat.

Inside the crate was a small creature named Teuthida. He resembled something between a squid and a cicada.

That dastardly Dale chucked Teuth into the vast abyss. And there Teuth floated until out came a piss.

Urine propulsion and a heave of his girth, set our Teuth on a path with the Earth.

Entering the atmosphere ruptured his spleens and altered his flight path to crash land in Queens.

It was the 20th century, in the year of 84. Found by some humans and shoved through their door.

Raised as a human until present day. This has been Teuthida having his say.
