What do you think of the music & the intro song, "Bad Things"?
Like the refrain - "I wanna do bad things with you." My kinda song!!

Heard 2nd series of True Blood is even better than the first. Got info from someone on Twitter who has got the DVD set of TB 2nd series. "Knowing" said person, (not in the Biblical sense) that means it's going to be naughtier, I hope!!

Most screen reading hardship has to do with font and maybe font size. Serif fonts (Times New Eyestrain et al) are much harder on the eyes than sans-serif (Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica). Courier New is the worst. The absolutely worst. I refuse to read forum posts made in whisper-thin twig writing.

I can only read comfortably on a computer. Books have lost their charm for my eyes. I crank up the zoom and plow through chapter after chapter. Word is set to use a comfy font in Draft View for critting and other necessary Word use. I don't write in Word if I can help it. I can usually hack a PDF into some other form for reading so I can have my choice of fonts. (T.G. GUD magazine is eye-friendly!) I read Kickshaw as plain text.

I haven't tried a Kindle or similar doo-hickey. I have a hard enough time reading pages of text on a computer; I think that would drive me batty. Besides, I'm old fashioned enough to want to feel paper under my fingers and smell the ink. 8-)

What ex-president missed the slab of pork while showing off his ax-wielding skills to a group of Moscow butchers?

A point for the name, Clive,

but we don't have the correct year yet.
