Guest guest Posted January 24, 2003 Report Share Posted January 24, 2003 I agree and often now abandon books mid-chapter if the writer fails me too much. It's just that one should read a bit, at least, to see if it might interest them. I don't like the idea of ignoring entire categories; then again, that's just me. I hadn't meant to say you were actually afraid, just a figure of speech I grew up with. Sorry for my clumsy phrasing.

" In those days the world teemed, the people multiplied, the world bellowed like a wild bull, and the great god was aroused by the clamour. Enlil heard the clamour and he said to the gods in council, 'The uproar of mankind is intolerable and sleep is no longer possible by reason of the babel.' So the gods agreed to exterminate mankind.

I am not capable of looking at a message and not reading a bit of it and I do know that certain categories don't interest me (crock pot recipes, for example, and offers to enlarge my penis ...). Anyway, it's cool. Apology accepted. Lee-Gwen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
