currently enjoying
I am reading this right now
http://www.nutang.com/numazon/0765340771/The+Butlerian+Jihad+%28Legends+of+Dune%2C+Book+1%29/
I would have provided you an image if I could but The thingy is broken (as usual)

I am actually not enjoying this book. It's very predictable and I can't relate to charecters this stupid. I enjoyed the Origianl dune and Dune Messiaha, but the charecters in Jihad are very shallow, uncomplicated and predictable, Unlike the dynamic and stirring charecters in Herbert Seniors work. Jihad also lacks the subtley, intracasy and detailed ambiance of the Seniors work.

What I am enjoying is reading about the "thinking machines" empire.
Machines can be creative btw. Here is an interesting link that I'm sure will be required reading when our machine overlords rest control of the planet from us.

Otherwise I can't really, with a good heart, reccomend this book. It's just too dumb.Herbert Junior should have spent a little more time on this one. But hey it's here and features creepy robots and cyborgs so I shant complain.
thoughts
I like strategey games especially ones where I can drop my troops to any position on the globe from orbit. And especially when I'm the only one with the technology to do it. And of courses, I Usually keep a strangle hold on this technology because I'm bombarding the hell out of everyone else. Thats right folks, I'm a fan of planatery conquest and invasion. I like working my way down penisulas, and literally driving my enemys into the sea with firepower at least two hundred years ahead of anyone elses. If I need help I will give one of my neighbors usefull technology so they can watch my back while I concentrate on keeping the fight going.

Well, here i have returned, to Tallahassee.

I'ts been an enteresting weekend and my extended family, the ones i met, were extremely kind, if not down right admirable. They were pretty much all american folk; Work hard till the day you die, profit on the fruit of your labour and ingenuity, ect. It made me proud to share their blood.

Some of them, Uncle Mounroe, actually kind of looked like uncle sam in profile.

The scenory was idealic, arcadian farmland. And in the early morning, the light difueseing off the treeline and into the golden feilds, it was ... quite aesthetic.

I was afraid to go at first because I had heard rumours of some form of familal squable but now i realize that those are ubsubstantiated... at least now they are.

ANYHOW im back at college, and wishing I was earning a BS :-( But writing is what Im good at, and I do enjoy it. How much more so would I enjoy designing spacecraft, rather than fantasizeing about them is hard to say.

Im resolved now that if I get city of Villans, an interesting looking video game, I will be a cat person. I think that is one of the positive staples of Japanese animes, and in real life if someone could offer me a pair of cat ears i would be on board that train all the way.... or perhaps not.

But cat people are not snowflakes to the japanes culture... that is to say they are not uniqe to their fiction. You can see them crop up in American literature, in books like Wing commander or in C J Cheriahs Mankin series. But in all honesty wouldn't you rather be a cute anime style cat person?

Think about the Katarl Katarl from outlaw star.

If I could be a member of a cat peopel star empire, and be cute... well... I just would sign up for that right away ; or something. Wouldn't you? of course you would!
