LOL Yes, the hysteria about Chomsky is hilarious. He is such an interesting person, but more like in the direction of an Umberto Eco than a Michael Moore. I am sorry, you could not get a ticket, that's a pity!

I loved no logo, but I could not manage reading something else so far. Could you recommend me something of Klein?

I am reading Sexing the Cherry by Jeanette Winterson... I love her books...they are so wonderful..I dont know how much else I can put into words... here is a quote... "that night two lovers whispering under the lead canopy of the church were killed by their own passion. Their effusion of words, unable to escape through the Saturnian discipline of lead, so filled the spaces of the loft that the air was all driven away. The lovers suffocated, but when the sacristan opened the tiny door the words tumbled over him in their desire to be free, and were seen flying across the city in the shapes of doves."
I am a Jeanette Winterson quote collector...

I can't bloody decide what to read next...! Multiple Dragonlance books which have been sat there waiting patiently for some time now. Hellboy graphic novel. Spiderman graphic novel. Sandman graphic novel. A Sandman book. Stardust (Gaiman). American Gods (Gaiman). A wrestling biography (by all means laugh, but it's one of the heaviest - in pages at least - books on the waiting list... ). A Shirley Jackson anthology which i've read all but the longest story from (the one remaining story ironically being the reason i bought the book in the first place ;D). Some 10 (!) Discworld books which have built up year by year as Terry Pratchett kicks them out by at least one or two new books a year. Slow down damn'it man - i'm having trouble keeping up! ;D The Crow graphic novel. Think i'll stop listing them now (especially since this isn't a "What are you NOT reading?" thread... ). But i could also list a multitude of books on Celtic and Norse mythology that have been sat waiting for a proper read some day for far too long.

I am now reading A Widow for one Year by John Irving... I can't say it often enough: I love this man. I met him in February in Vienna (I was doing a job at the Vienna Press Agancy - cultural section). Right now I am reading Owen Meany (again). I haven't read widow for a year, yet. Do you like it?

I am really enjpying A Widow for One Year Alamo... I have read all his earlier books (they are easy to get for 50c second hand). But the later ones such as this one I can only find in bookstores, so I have to pay $25 for them, but they are worth the $$, I am big fan of his books... I thin Widow is going to be an interesting story...
