I should have saved $3 and used this online Latin – English dictionary. Oh well, mine fits better by my bed.
I bought a Latin-English dictionary to help with the Latin phrases in the book. Graecum est, non legitur. It's greek to me. I should really be learning Italian so I can read the orignal text of the book. Ad Fontis!
I'm also reading Name of the Rose. It's nothing like a blog.
Tonight I finally started reading The Cluetrain Manifesto. It's funny how much its structure is like a traditional blog. The paragraphs aren't all run-together. They're all separate blurbs with space in between...complete with snarky comments and attitude. All those blurbs need is a time stamp and a permanent link-link and it's a blog. It's a blog masquerading as a book. (and making more money.)
I don't have a book in the works.
I learned a harsh and important social lesson today: never ask a writer if they have a book in the works unless they do indeed have a book in the works.

Here's the exact quote. Ironically, Alan Cooper said it.
I can't stop listening to The Tragically Hip's new album Music @ Work. Granted, I've been a big fan for a long time. But it usually takes a while for me to warm up to a new album. In this case, I've been repeatedly devouring it since the first day. Lyric of this moment:
...and cause discontent until They,
ceasing their investigation,
bring back the days' events,
good citizens and time well spent,
til we're talking in whispers again.
- The Hip
