I wouldn't touch that s**t with someone else's hands. No offense, Stefan.

And even if you ignore the theme, it's still s**t. Well, it was written for mental defectives.

I think we'd all prefer not to, Rich. Mild stuff, in context isn't so bad. But nothing too profane, please.

I'm reading W.A.R.: The Unauthorized Biography of William Axl Rose By Mick Wall, yes that Mick Wall from Kerrang who Axl talked so nice about in "Get in the Ring".

I like that song.

I don't think we should be talking politics either.

Hey, we are in the lounge. Politics is appropriate "lounge" conversation.

I am reading an entire series of books written by Carole Nelson Douglas. Unfortunately, she has not finished the series, and the decreased sales of books in recent years may mean that her publishing house won't allow her to finish.

I bought the books as an almost complete set, from ebay recently, after reading some of them out of order over the last couple of years. Now I am reading them in order!

They are mysteries, with a lady named Temple Barr, who is a PR agent working in Las Vegas. Temple is dating/living with a magician named the Magnificent MAX. In the first book, a murder occurs, and MAX disappears without explanation. At about the same time, a black cat makes friends with Temple, and moves in with her by his own choice. His name is Midnight Louie.

Every book after that is based on Temple and Louie, who are confronted with a string of murders, and with Louie's help and subtle guidance, Temple gets involved in solving them. The sub-plot continues to involve Max, and a neighbor who moves in upstairs, Matt Devine, an ex-priest who is now learning the ways of life that he never experienced before becoming a priest.

Not exactly intellectual... but definately fun.
