"I'm a sap for detective noir and for funny novels, and my internet pal/comedy-writing idol Ellis Weiner provides both here. Not as consistently swell as its predecessor, but a must for any fan of pup"   ...read more »

Cait's favorite quotes

4
"The problem with designing something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of a complete fool. "
Douglas Adams (The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy)

7779
"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."
Arthur C. Clarke

656983
"In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit."
J.R.R. Tolkien (The Hobbit)

29947
"Re-vision – the act of looking back, of seeing with fresh eyes, of entering an old text from a new critical direction – is for woman more than a chapter in cultural history: it is an act of survival. Until we understand the assumptions in which we are drenched we cannot know ourselves. And this drive to self-knowledge, for women, is more than a search for identity: it is part of our refusal of the self-destructiveness of male-dominated society."
Adrienne Rich (On Lies Secrets and Silence: Selected Prose 1966-1978)

"'Too many!' James shouted, and slammed the door behind him."
Susan Cooper (The Dark Is Rising)
