We had Tagore in school, in our Arabic Literature course (I can't believe they gave us a translated book to study), anyway, I hope that thing is better than his book "Fruit Basket", the corniness was suffocating. He kept talking about how great God is, and that he's just happy whenever the name of God is mentioned, for more than 100 pages.

I just ordered... Angels Dance and Angels Die: The Tragic Romance of Pamela and Jim Morrison....can't wait to get into that.
Finished Creepers by David Morrell, very good quick read. "Creepers," also known as infiltrators, urban explorers or city speleologists—men and women who outfit themselves with caving gear to break into and explore buildings that have long been closed up and abandoned. Though what they're doing is technically illegal, participants pride themselves on never stealing or destroying anything they find at these sites. They take only photographs and aim to leave no footprints. Balenger joins a group of four: the leader, Professor Robert Conklin, high school teacher Vincent Vanelli and graduate students Rick and Cora Magill. This gang infiltrates the Paragon Hotel, an abandoned, seven-story, pyramidal Asbury Park, N.J., structure built in 1901 by eccentric, hemophiliac Morgan Carlisle. Balenger and the professor have a special agenda, but the others are there simply for the thrills. Things quickly begin to unravel in life-threatening ways once the intrepid infiltrators penetrate the building—they aren't the only ones creeping around the spooky hotel.

Picked this up on a whim and so far is pretty engrossing. I'm not sure why, but I have this strange fascination with gang culture, even though I've never once felt the desire to join a gang or even bee affiliated with one. Reading this off to the side but already I am impressed with Murrow and his integrity. Reading this for my English class this semester. |
