Inspirations
1. (C) From the Playboy Advisor September 2006 (Yes I am a reader of my husband's Playboy and every once in a while, I get a real laugh out of it...Sue me)
Question: When my girlfriend and I have sex, she likes to be on top. I have no problem with that, but sometimes she flails her arms and hits me in the face. Any suggestions? N.D. Omaha Nebraska
Answer: A helmet comes to mind...
That was the short of the answer, and all I saw before my eyes closed with the chuckle that turned into laughter, and then a full blow guffaw. Anything that takes me by surprise and gets me to laugh in an unexpected moment is top notch in my book.
2. Cormier, Robert. The Chocolate War. New York: Random House, 2000.
p. 259
"Don't disturb the universe, Goober, no matter what the posters say."
In my books, that is, those that I read, I fancy justice-served kinda endings. This one, and perhaps it is because I am a teacher of 8th graders, pissed me off. I REALLY enjoyed the book, and would highly recommend it, but it's ended showed a complete lack of justice, a "things stay the same no matter what an individual tries" attitude, and of course it miffed me. Yes it made me think, and was, quite frankly unexpected as I was sure fucking Archie was going to get that black marble and have to take Jerry's place. Fucker.
Anyway, of course it was inspiring, and sickening, somewhat that I never read it before. It's apparently literary fare for most high schoolers, but apparently, I was absent that month.
Oh, and if I have not mentioned earlier, and I do not think I have...A Lesson Before Dying...INSPIRATIONAL all around. I dare you to finish it with a dry eye.
On to the next book or several.
