Dinner and Klute, Feb 2010

A good day.

Went to the doctor. Some tests and results from last year. All results good.

Partner cooked yummy dinner. Wiener schnitzel no less. He saw a good angle and took a shot ..

Personal Review/Comments

The Road by Cormac McCarthy

I never heard of the book "The Road" nor would I likely have read it but for the "fortunate" circumstance of having a partner who is an avid reader and follower of reviews (in newspapers). Whoever the reviewer was, he/she too should win some kind of prize because after reading it, my partner "pursued" me with relentless recommendations that that was one book I absolutely had to read. And so strong was his conviction that unlike his normal mode of behaviour, he remembered it every time we went out and went so far as looking out for bookshops we could go into in search of "The Road".

Movie Review: The Road

Movie review of The Road

Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more. (What you say?)
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.

Lyrics from song "Hit The Road, Jack", by Ray Charles

Christmas 2009 - New Year 2010

19 December 2009

Left for Geelong from Sydney - left early this year to be in time for Fatty's 50th birthday bash. 10 hours drive. Pete drove, Klutey stood semi-alert, I chatted. Had simple dinner (or "tea" as they call it) at Joy and Russ's. Karen and Garrie came over.

Moon: Personal Movie Review

Moon the movie

Was delighted to have seen the movie "Moon" yesterday. My hubby had to drag me out of the house. I was wearing a very bad-tempered, disgruntled, unhappy face as I had to rush and my internet connection had gone down to zero speed. But I am so glad to have been dragged to the movies.

How Little Information There Really Is

It is a strange phenomenon I have encountered over and over. Not always but often enough.

I have a number of web pages that I bookmark for further reading coz when I first come across them, they were either not my primary topic of research or they looked as if they have too much information for me to assimilate at the time.

I don't quite know what to say about this book other than I read it twice. By mistake. I read it a long time ago and then I bought it again recently - not remembering and once again captivated by the synopsis on the back cover.

This was a #1 New York Times Bestseller, with over 5,000,000 in print ~ and I am not sure I know why. I obviously must be wrong if so many people love this book. I found it to be childishly written, with pretensions to depth.

Whatever it says about my taste, I must say I enjoyed this Jonathan Kellerman book again as I did his "Obsession".
