I'm surprised they're canning it after season 8, though, I would've thought TV execs would want to milk this for all its worth, i.e. completely open-ended. --- It has been 1 days since something interesting happened.

Sunhawk 09/08/17 10:35:41 AM #1 | Books List 2017 Slade House – David Nicholls Licks of Love – John Updike Lonesome Traveller – Jack Koreauc The Ballad of the Lonely Café and Other Stories – Carson McCullers Zero K – Don DeLillo America America – some guy The Waves – Virginia Woolf Anna Karenina – Leo Tolstoy What We Talk About When We Talk About Love – Raymond Carver Submission – Michelle Holleobeqc Big Sur – Jack Koreauc The Subterraneans – Jack Koreauc Postcards from the Edge - Carrie Fisher Men Without Women – Huraki Mukakami Platform – Michele Houllebecq 15 books. I guess that's okay for September. Probably read 20 - 25 by the end of the year. I used to read 50+ a year, though. My favourites were Big Sur, by Koreacu, Submission and Platform, both by Houllebecq, and Anna Karenina, by Tolstoy. Pretty good books, although none were great. The most important book to avoid is WWTAWWTAL, which was dreadful, especially since it's considered to be a "classic". Everthing else was either bad, okay, or kinda good.

Topic | I've started work on a new book. |
Sunhawk 09/08/17 8:34:16 AM #1 | I've been planning it since September, and I've been taking written notes as well, the last few days. It's probably going to be very long , i.e. 800+ pages, extremely complex to read because of the vocabulary and the references, and it's an American zeitgeist book, set in the 90s, the 2000s, and the 2010s. Think Jonathan Franzen meets David Foster Wallace. I don't know if this book will get finished, or what it might be like if it is, but I think it's a very big project. --- It has been 1 days since something interesting happened.

Sunhawk 09/07/17 10:54:38 AM #18 | The recession officially ended in the second quarter of 2009,[2] but the nation's economy continued to be described as in an "economic malaise" during the second quarter of 2011, [59] and has been described as the weakest recovery since the Great Depression and World War II.[85][86] The weak economic recovery has led many to call it a "Zombie Economy", so-called because it is neither dead nor alive. Household incomes, as of August 2012, had fallen more since the end of the recession, than during the 18-month recession, falling an additional 4.8% since the end of the recession, totally to 7.2% since the December 2007 level.[87] Additionally as of September 2012, the long-term unemployment is the highest it has been since World War II,[88] and the unemployment rate peaked several months after the end of the recession (10.1% in October 2009) and was above 8% until September 2012 (7.8%) .[89][90] The Federal Reserve has kept interest rates at a historically low 0.25% since December 2008, and both heads Ben Bernanke and Janet Yellen have stated that rates should remain low through at least mid-2015 as long as the recovery is still slow and inflation remains below 2.5%. Sounds like things were somewhat improved by 2011, and quite good by the end of 2012 or the beginning of 2013. --- It has been 0 days since something interesting happened.

I mean, are people with university-level educations still struggling to get min-wage jobs? No, they aren't. Are people barely able to eat and get by, month by month?
