Inverness Caledonian Thistle manager Terry Butcher fears Chris Hogg will miss the rest of the season after suffering a knee injury against Dundee United.
Hogg was stretchered off after just 15 minutes of Inverness' 3-2 home defeat by the Terrors and is facing a long spell on the sidelines.
Caley Thistle had led 2-0 against United before throwing away the lead and Butcher admits Hogg's injury has compounded a disappointing day.
Butcher said: "It appears that Chris Hogg will be out until the end of the season.
"I don't want to say too much because he'll go for a scan next week to assess how bad his knee is, but I fear the worst.
"He will now be missing for our next game against Rangers, as will David Davis, while we've got three right-backs currently out through injury, so it's been an unbelievable day."

Japan earthquake: How Tokyo got an 80-second head start
Thanks to the latest technology, Tokyo received early warning of the Japan earthquake. But tsunamis require more time to prepare for, so scientists are investigating ways to speed up computer alerts without sacrificing accuracy.
Yuriko Nakao/Reuters
Residents of Tokyo likely had about 80 seconds of warning before a devastating quake rumbled through the city after striking 373 kilometers away, off Japan's northeast coast, thanks to a new early warning system. But tsunami alerts take longer to generate, giving just minutes of warning before the waves first struck the coast—a reflection of the differing technologies needed to detect earthquakes and calculate their impacts, researchers say.
Japan has the world's most advanced earthquake early-warning system, with more than 1,000 seismographs scattered over the country. Collectively, they detect tremors and allow for brief advance warnings not only to vulnerable sectors like railroads and utilities—so they can slow down high-speed trains and shut off gas lines—but also to the public via television, Internet and text-message. "This hits probably what I would consider the best prepared country in the world for earth quake preparedness," says Stephane Rondenay, a geophysicist at MIT.
The seismometers detect the first evidence of a quake—P-waves, which have short wavelengths and generally do little damage—and calculate the location of the epicenter. The longer-wavelength and far more damaging S-waves come next, usually within seconds.
RELATED: The 10 nations most reliant on nuclear power
The quake struck at 5:46 GMT. It would have taken about ten seconds for sensors to detect enough signals to conclude the quake was serious and issue the alerts. Since the more damaging secondary waves travel at 4 kilometers per second, it would have taken them about 90 seconds to travel the 373 kilometers to Tokyo, Rondenay says.

This is really, really good. In the summer, I grill rounds of polenta and serve it on top of that instead of bread. It is always a big hit.
I had a dinner party where this was one of about 6 dishes, and when planning my menu it almost got cut. But I'm so glad I didn't cut it- it ended up being my favorite!! The flavors worked so well together and the red pepper gave it a perfect kick. Super-easy, too and leftovers were delicious. Will be making it as often as possible!
This dish is GREAT. It is great on bread, so simple to prepare and is a 100% crowd pleaser. I usually double the recipe and it always disappears.

Send Morgan a message explaining your needs and you will receive a response by email. Have you already emailed Morgan or another tutor? If so, you have an account! Sign in now
If you select this option, WyzAnt will ask interested tutors to contact you by email if they are able to help. A maximum of five different tutors will email you and none of your personal information, including your email address, will be released.
Hey! I'm Morgan. I love to help students on their path to scholastic success! Throughout my life I have strived to be an excellent student, and I have taken many opportunities to help others to do the same. I have had very fun and rewarding opportunities to help my friends in their various classes - particularly math and english - from elementary school, through middle and high school, and in college. I have had many teaching opportunities - formal and informal - and I am excited for the opportunity to teach you!
I like to work with people straight out of their notes, textbook/workbook, or asignments, and take the "learn with you" approach. We walk through the steps, whatever they may be, together. That way if there is ever a problem, we know right where it is, and we will find a creative way to solve it. For students to truly learn, they must be able to do the work themselves - I'm just there as a guide - and I can help them learn new methods of problem-solving and learning. I promise to have patience and a cheerful attitude, and I'm used to working with and teaching a very wide variety of individuals.
Morgan was able to answer all of my questions, was patient and made sure I understood the material. He gave me positive feedback and good pointers to watch out for. I am confident I will do well on my final exam now.
Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
I love algebra 1. As many students' foundation of high school math, this class is very important to understand.
This can be a tough class for many students. With patience, and a little creativity, anyone can learn the concepts and begin to excel!
Elementary math is so important for the young students' future. I can help to develop a strong foundation, and even inspire a sense of accomplishment and enjoyment for math, as children learn the basics.
Being a biophysics major, I thoroughly enjoy science. In time, I actually plan to become a science teacher. I would love to help young students learn the very basics of science, and how things around them work.
One of my favorite subjects growing up. While writing, and reading critically, don't always come naturally to some people, there are always simple, easy ways to improve, and fine-tune their skills. Becoming skilled in English takes a little work, but can be a lot of fun, and very rewarding.
Not many people are perfect, when it comes to grammar. We all need some friendly reminders at times. It's important that we don't get discouraged, and keep practicing - that's when good grammar truly becomes a habit. The best part about learning grammar, is many grammar rules can be demonstrated with jokes, and are easier to remember!
Sometimes this transition from more elementary math, to algebra, a little more advanced, can be rocky. Not to worry! With a few well placed hints and reminders, anyone can learn and excel in prealgebra!
Let's be honest. This class can be tough. Oftentimes there is a lot of homework involved. I won't do it for you, but I am very happy to explain the principles in ways you haven't thought of before, and give hints as necessary. Math is all about changing your perspective until the problem is solved. I can help you do that.
I love vocabulary! It is actually quite fun for me to increase and apply my vocabulary. I find it easy to explain obscure words, and definitions, in a very straightforward way.
Some people get stressed out about writing - especially formal papers. I have a lot of experience in this matter - I wrote 2 or 3 papers a week in high school - and I actually loved it! I know that just a little fine-tuning goes a long way in writing, and this approach helps reduce stress, and increase motivation for any student to write exceptionally well.
Great tutor, great guy — Morgan was able to answer all of my questions, was patient and made sure I understood the material. He gave me positive feedback and good pointers to watch out for. I am confident I will do well on my final exam now. ...
Standard Hourly Fee: $30.00
Morgan will travel within 16 miles of Provo, UT 84606.

.- Pope Benedict XVI today welcomed Prime Minister Vlado Buchkovski of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia to the Vatican as he and an entourage celebrates the feast of Sts. Cyril and Methodius, who were Apostles to the Slavic people. The feast is celebrated in the Eastern Church on May 11, and in the West on February 14.
The Pope said that, "When I received the new ambassador a few days ago, I wanted to acknowledge how strongly the traditions and culture of the Macedonian people resonate with the values which permeate the spirit of Europe."
"The brothers Saints Cyril and Methodius, Apostles of the Slav peoples," he pointed out, "contributed significantly to its formation. Their human and Christian activity left indelible traces in the history of your own country. The pilgrimage which you make every year to the tomb of Saint Cyril provides a fitting occasion to return to the roots of your history."
The Holy Father added that, "I am convinced that the way to give life to a society truly attentive to the common good is to seek in the Gospel the roots of shared values, as the experience of Saints Cyril and Methodius demonstrates."
"This is the ardent desire of the Catholic Church which has no other interest but to spread and bear witness to Jesus Christ's words of hope and love, words of life which down the centuries have inspired many martyrs and confessors of the faith."
"I sincerely hope," the Pope continued, "that your pilgrimage today will contribute to keeping vibrant throughout the Nation these high human and Christian ideals. I pray too that your country will confidently open up to Europe, thereby contributing significantly to building its future, inspired by your invaluable religious and cultural heritage."

A recent opportunity to respond to a casting call for a reality television show focusing on boutique hotels, inns, and b&bs caused us to pause and take stock of why coming to The Inn at Cooperstown would be an amazing experience. With almost 11 years of ownership under our belts we sometimes take for granted the "amazing experiences" that we offer for guests of the inn. During the first few years of ownership we were looking for creative ways to inject our personalities into the inn as well as grow the off season business. The "aha" moment came from brainstorming about multi-day experiences for our guests that could not be obtained by simply booking a room and buying a ticket to an attraction. We wanted our guests to have something that we enjoy when we go on vacation – a truly memorable experience by participating in over the top activities not typically available to the general public. The natural place to start was with the Baseball Hall of Fame and the result is our Ultimate Baseball Hall of Fame Getaway. Guests of this experience spend time in small groups, after-hours, with the staff and curators at the museum. They have access to areas of the museum like the archives which are off limits to visitors with a standard ticket and they get cool, personalized take away items in addition to the memories they've made. There is even a special, annual version of this experience, Evening with the Babe, that includes an evening with Babe Ruth's granddaughter, Linda Ruth Tosetti.
The next unique experience package was born out of our love for fine craft beer and great food or as Marc jokingly tells guests he was trying to find a way to get more visitors to the inn, and free beer. The wildly popular Bed and Brew package with Brewery Ommegang is offered one weekend a month from October to May. Guests enjoy "Craft Beer Night" at the inn on Friday evening and then on Saturday evening the brewery welcomes them for a private tour, tasting and gourmet beer and food pairing dinner.
Our passion for bicycling led to the Big Ring Bicycle Clubhouse. We gutted and tricked out a heated workshop to create something most cyclists only dream about – a cool spot to store and work on their bike and just plain relax after a ride. We cater to cycling guests in every way possible. They have access to the clubhouse, as well as everything from cue sheets for rides, to fully supported group rides, to before/after beverages in the fully stocked clubhouse refrigerator.
One good thing leads to another! Other experience packages include Cooperstown's Excellent Bat Making with the Cooperstown Bat Company; Snommegang Winter Beer Festival; Home Brew Beer Camp with Council Rock Brewery; Antique Tin Ornament Making with Zinn Brilliant; and our latest package, Lodging and Libations with the Cooperstown Distillery. And it won't stop there. While anyone can offer a "wine and chocolate covered strawberries" lodging package only the truly innovative can offer a guest an experience that creates lifetime memories.
Will The Inn at Cooperstown be featured in that reality show? Hard to say at this point. Will The Inn at Cooperstown offer experience packages that are the stuff memories are made of? Always!

A few interesting Gold discussions lately (See chart below)
Also, see Eddie Elfenbein's Central Bank Gold Sales Began 10 Years Ago This Week: Has it Worked?
Via Chart of the Day:
"Today's chart presents the Dow divided by the price of one ounce of gold. This results in what is referred to as the Dow / gold ratio or the cost of the Dow in ounces of gold. For example, it currently takes 9.2 ounces of gold to "buy the Dow." This is considerably less that the 44.8 ounces it took back in 1999. When priced in gold, the Dow is down 79% from its 1999 peak and the scale of the current two-month rally has not distinguished it from the many bear market rallies that have occurred over the past decade."

Are You getting ETF'd?
Objective: UltraShort Blah-Blah ProShares seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to twice (200%) the inverse (opposite) of the daily performance of the Blah-Blah Index.
Remember when you first heard about these leveraged ETF's? That little part of your brain that actually wants you to survive started flailing its' arms saying, Hold on there, Chief…. Double the gains?…How does this work?…How much fees and expenses?…Can this possibly work?…Remember? And you said, "Shut-up brain, I know what I'm doing." Double your pleasure, double your fun, double your risk of cardiac arrest while just sitting in front of a computer. Now look at you, after a handful of "Plaxico" incidents, trying to externalize the whole thing.
Real men don't read prospectuses, I always say. So when the eggheads at ProShares (and others) offered to warp time and space just for me, I was excited. Now, thanks to the recent performance of the SRS (ProShares Ultra-short Real Estate) and URE (ultra-long), I believe I've discovered a wormhole to a whole new dimension of excitement.
Take this past Monday, for instance:
While not able to understand to understand the Theory of Relativity, I can multiply by 2 (and subtract). Is a couple percent off target anything to be concerned about? The difference amounts to about $0.13 for URE holders and about $4.35 for SRS longs. I'd multiply that by the number of shares outstanding, but the only data I can find (MSN) says there are 8m shares of SRS outstanding (it traded over 15m today). And Yahoo says the expense ratio is 0.95% (sometimes the jokes just write themselves).

I see that a health center in Wilkes-Barre, PA is offering free shingles shots to seniors on one day in December, along with free flu shots to the general public. Perhaps this is being offered in other towns as well. |
Follow-Up Postings:
It must be the Kirby Health Center. They give free flu shots every yr. I live just outside the city and called a couple of yrs ago to ask if I was eligible for the Flu Vaccine, I wasn't, since I don't live inside city limits. That's a great give away. I wish I were eligible. |
Mare, this announcement lists two sites, and they don't mention any qualifications. Might be worth a try. |
Here is a link that might be useful: free flu shots in W-B
- Posted by lindakathy (My Page) on Tue, Nov 27, 12 at 19:59
If you can find a free shingles shot..... go for it. The shot costs almost $300. |
Thanks Susan. I'm going to call. The site for the Flu Vaccine is only a couple of miles from where I live, the other site just a bit further, but noe very far,. I hope I can get the Shingles vaccine, i askeed my Dr about. he told me it would cost about $250, not covered by Medicare. |
I hope you get it, Mare. Are you sure about the insurance coverage? I have Medicare, and most of the cost was paid by my Part D drug coverage. I paid $45 and got the shot at Rite-Aid. |
I only have the info from the MD's office, I haven't checked with pharmacies. I have the Humana/Walmart part D. I don't know if I've met the deduuctible yet. |
Wish they had free shingles shots here...they were around $200 each, only a portion was covered by insurance. |
Wish they had free shingles shots here...they were around $200 each for the frozen serum and then you had to take it to the doctor's office or pay the pharmacist for the injection, only a portion was covered by insurance. |
Just called about the free Shingles Vaccine. It's for those without insurance. I'm glad I don't qualify in that case. Thanks anyway Susan. |
OT: Do you live near Wilkes-Barre? Some of my Eloit/Eliot/Elliott ancestors escaped to that town from Wyoming during an Indian raid. |
Mare, with the insurance you have, it's too bad Walmart isn't giving the shot. My local Walmart gave me the impression that they'll offer them at some point. The pharmacist said, "we're working on it." Sue, I'm about 50 miles from W-B. What year was that, do you know? I have a good friend with the last name Elliott, but he's originally from Syracuse. I assume you mean Wyoming, PA, yes? In addition to the town, Wyoming is a popular street name around here. |

Oops...I confused the shingles shot for the flu shot. I got the flu shot, covered 100% by Medicare. As to the shingles shot, because of my RA drugs, DR. said "No Way - too dangerous". |

Plenty's already been said about Ace Combat 6 and Beautiful Katamari, but until this week no one had seen a drop of full-on multiplayer action. Both games promised the feature, and had been explained through text, but now we've finally spent some quality time with two of Namco's biggest hitters. Oh, and we dabbled with Tekken 5's new online mode on the PlayStation Network, but more on that later.
Being the insatiable Ace fans that we are, Fires of Liberation was our first stop. Four modes were ready for play, each allowing 16 people total to soar through the skies, ramming missiles up after burners and the like. Battle Royal obviously pits every pilot against the other; Team Battle splits the available players into two or more sides; Siege has teams taking turns attacking and defending a set number of targets. Before the battle you can choose your plane, your special weapon and with what color your jet will streak the sky.
Above: Gameplay footage from earlier this year
Ace fans should know right away that everything works perfectly. The controls are tight, the planes handle great and all the chaos of the single-player missions is totally intact. NPC enemies like SAMs and AA guns will shoot anything and everyone, showing no preferences and picking no sides. Certain areas of the map will also trigger Nimbus missile strikes (they're the huge orange blasts that ignite large portions of the map).
Everyone already knows how hot this game looks, plays and sounds, but we noticed one other thing this time around - the excellent use of rumble. Hard banks make the controller shudder, while easy turns yield a tiny "bumpbumpbump" that's so subtle we nearly missed it. And of course, 16 players at once in an Ace Combat game is badass as hell. We just can't wait to hop back in the pilot's seat with this one.

Dude, I don't think we even conversed enough for you to have expectations of me, and for me to actually care what you think. Speaking of which are you a new mod or something? Never noticed you post on Chit Chat before.
But anyway, lesbian porn is boring. It's like eternal foreplay. MEEEEH.
I've been around for some time. I just dont post in chit chat often.
*shrugs* I hate to say it, i agree with you there.. however it is a nice thing to watch once in a while (a change)
To quote a great IRC script,
"Porn is bad, yo."
But, alas, is still the oldest recreational hobby for males. You just know Adam hid some in that apple tree.
I still don't really get the question.
Does what?
^ I meant:
And thenAm I the only one who does this when fapping to shemale porn?
Does what?Fap to shemale porn?
I guess that hypothetically, if I were to fap to shemale porn, I would be fapping to shemale porn...I didn't think that it was supposed to be some sort of word game though...
Thank you for that, AK. Beautiful mental image.
Damn, shemales... nasty... Just the thought of getting ready to have sex with a chick then realizing that she doesn't have the parts you expected... wow... horrible...........

Flash Mobs Spreads Love To Cancer Patients And Their Families
Fun fact: The Love Flash Mob was created by Glennon Doyle Melton to raise money that will be distributed to the families of five women who were diagnosed with cancer.
Doesn't that just warm your heart?
As of right now, the viral social media campaign has raised an incrediable $162,952.53, according to Glennon's website, Momastry.
Melton sees the flash mob as a simple metaphor for life. "It's like everyone wants to be free and dance and do their thing, but it takes one crazy fool to stand up and do it and then people just start joining in. It becomes this big, beautiful expression of love. That's the same thing these Love Flash Mobs are all about," she told Today.com.
What an incredible way to turn something fun into something meaningful.
Melton's efforts are much appreciated by the families who are benefiting from the money that is raised. The donations will be used towards a variety of things including mortgage payments, financial assistance for families who lost their loved ones due to cancer, and to pay for treatments. One family will be using the money for a final vacation with their beloved patient, as she has come to her final days.
And to Ms. Melton? Much love and respect, lady!

TUALATIN, Ore., Jan. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Waytronx, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: WYNX), a platform company dedicated to the acquisition, development, and commercialization of new, innovative technologies, today announced that it has reached an agreement with British-based Ingenion Design Ltd. ("Ingenion") to develop and build its second generation Gas Quality Inferential Measurement Device (GasPT2).
The GasPT2, designed by GL Industrial Services ("GL") and recently licensed worldwide and exclusively to Waytronx, is a low cost solution to measuring gas quality. It can be connected to a natural gas system to provide a fast, accurate, close to real time measurement of the gas physical properties, such as thermal conductivity, speed of sound and carbon dioxide content. From these measurements it infers an effective gas mixture comprising four components: methane, propane, nitrogen, and measured carbon dioxide and then uses ISO6976 to calculate the gas quality characteristics of calorific value (CV), Wobbe index (WI), relative density (RD), and compression factor (Z).
This new relationship between Ingenion and Waytronx allows for final development and manufacturing of the GasPT2 by the company that has been producing the original version of the device for several years.
"Developing a relationship with Ingenion was critical to our strategy of rapidly introducing this exciting technology into the natural gas market," explained Waytronx President & CEO, William Clough. "Use of the well respected and internationally recognized services of an industry leading manufacturer like Ingenion, coupled with our previously announced relationship with GL, guarantees the acceptance of this technology into the rapidly growing natural gas market," Clough continued.

NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Friday rejected dentist couple Rajesh and Nupur Talwar's plea for shifting of the trial against them in the case of the murder of their daughter Aarushi from Ghaziabad to Delhi.
The apex court said that reasons submitted by Talwars for shifting the trial were not vaild. The SC directed the trial court judge to ensure that only the parties in the case and their counsel would be present during the hearing of the case.
The judgement was delivered by a bench of justices B S Chauhan and J S Khehar which had on February 27 reserved its order on the couple's plea.
Pleading to shift the trial to Delhi, the couple had submitted it has been a traumatic experience for them to go to Ghaziabad to face the trial and that they also face security threat there.
They had submitted it would be better to hold the trial in the national capital as it would not only be convenient for them but also for the witnesses and the prosecuting agency CBI.
CBI had, however, opposed the plea, saying there has been an attempt by the couple to delay the trial and has assured the court that proper security arrangement would be made for them in Ghaziabad.
It had said there were some hidden motives behind the filing of the plea and that the petition for transfer of the trial of the case might have been filed as section 438 of the Criminal Procedure Code (relating to anticipatory bail) is not applicable in Uttar Pradesh.
On January 6, the court had cleared the decks for the couple's trial in the murder case by dismissing their plea to quash criminal proceedings against them.
The bench had refused to interfere with the lower court's order, saying there was nothing wrong in the magistrate's order of taking cognisance of the chargesheet summoning them.
14-year-old Aarushi, the only daughter of the Talwars, was found dead at the family's Noida residence on the intervening night of May 15-16, 2008.
The body of the Talwars' servant, Hemraj, was found next day on the terrace.

"i should have listened to sarah"
amidst all the glowing praise for this audio book is one written by a reviewer named Sarah. her description fits my experience almost perfectly. i have to say that I didn't enjoy the subject matter as much as she did, partially due to the "herky jerky" aspect of mr bryson's narration. while a brilliant writer, mr brysons speaking voice is strangely lulling. I found myself mentally wandering away from the story often, and struggling with the odd emphasis' and cadence of his speech.
to soften this review, I have to say that "A Walk In The Woods" is one of my favorite books, ever, and I have read, and enjoyed, most of his other books. this is the first audiobook of his work that I have attempted to listen to.
"plot does not engage."
i tried really hard to like this book. i have been disappointed with the last several books I have tried, so I was determined to make it thru this one, and like it.
I like the writing, the sentence structure. how the whole thing is set up and described. the author likes words, likes to weave them and use them to their full advantage, and it shows. The narrator is quite good, great accents, nice cynical note, self-deprecating humor, touches of overall humor... all good.
the story though. ugh. just. not. interesting. ghosts rising from the dead, demons free to assume human form and interact with mortals, cool. people who can see these ghosts and interact with them, find out the problem, banish them, even cooler. it all sounds great.
but the execution of the plot line is blah. not terrible, like bang your head against the wall terrible, but can't-keep-my-attention bad. i just didn't care what happened. the guy would come up with a scheme, or get into some trouble, and... i just didn't care.
i do not love books that throw you into a new situation, or new way the world works, without some type of explanation. the explanation can come as the story moves along, but some sort of explanation is required. that didn't happen here. it makes me feel like I am fumbling in the dark. do not dig it.
"surprising and entertaining"
I bought this based solely on the reviews, and I am delighted that I did. It is unexpected and treat to listen to. I am not a big fan of technical talk, and I my eyes did glaze over at a couple points. But I came back when I wasn't driving, and managed to get past those parts, lol.
extremely well written, the character is totally likeable, the prose well structured. One of the reviewers was lamenting the fact that so many obstacles were encountered. I have to say that yes, there were a lot of obstacles, but in reality, wouldn't there be? A manned mission to Mars? bound to be a ton of unforeseen stuff. the story is original, and I will be eagerly anticipating mr weir's next novel.
"classic, enjoyable davenport"
somehow I missed this one. back int he day, i read these books like crazy. love the cast and crew. began listening to the latest ones, about a year ago. at some point figured out that I missed the one where letty is introduced. glad I went back and found it.
I'm not a fan of the narrator. i do not care for his delivery, nor the way he seems to suck all the teasing and humor from the text. I don't know if it is just me, but when I read these, there is a wry and sly humor to lots of the interactions, and that is missing from the narrators delivery.
As solid entry into the series.
"main character is hard going"
overall i enjoyed this book and will try the next one. the author has a love for words and a nice lyrical quality to her writing. In this particular book, the main character is completely unlikable. i understand the need to create drama and compromising situations, but books in which a supposedly "intelligent" character makes improbable mistakes in judgement are difficult for me to forgive.
The supporting cast are very good, especially the sister, the partner and the sub-partner. it's a believable storyline, although i deduced the culprit early on. No spoilers but if you are a fan of detective dramas, and have read say 20 decent ones, you too will figure it out early on.
despite all that, it is a good read/listen. i am eager to see if the quality improves when the main character is not this damaged, jerkish man.
"wasted my time"
I have been reading these books for 20 years. I am not sure if it is me that is tired of them, or Ms. Grafton. Kinsey just never seems to move forward. In this book she makes the same bone-headed choices and lets another batch of people take outrageous advantage of her, for NO APPARENT REASON other than this book needing to words on a page. Everyone is this book is crabby, if not downright bitchy. Even henry is put out.
So much of this book is filler. "I took out my overnight bag and set it on the counter in the bathroom. Grasping the small blue zipper tab, I pulled it to the right, revealing my toilette in miniature. So as to be prepared in the morning I removed form the bag my toothbrush, a small minty-smelling container of floss, a travel sized tube of toothpaste with a dent int he middle from previous usage, deodorant, foot powder to ward off any nasty fungus i might pick up from the grimy carpet, moisturizer, mascara..." aaaaarrrgggggghhhhhh!!!
it is also a bit jarring to adjust to the shoehorning in of a 2000=era problem to 1988. As far as remember, bums at off ramps wasn't really an issue at that time. i just didn't find the premise believable. but maybe i'm just crabby =)
If you are a diehard fan, then you might like it. Dietz and Cheney make appearances, wiggling their eyebrows, Kinsey does her stuff, kinda. I almost feel like Kiinsey is tired of herself too.
"horrific narrator"
I didn't get far. This book has b een praised for the lyricism of the writing and the poignancy of the story. Those reviews are why I purchased it. So it baffles me that the narrator was so uninspiring. He could have been reading the classified ads or perhaps the periodic table of elements. from what I did listen to, i have a feeling that this book will be better read, than listened to. jmo.
"better than average installment"
the evil-doers are well done in this installment, and I like the introduction of the small town sheriff. I like that Lucas reverts to some of his old-school habits, which is why DearReader falls in love with the character. He's gotten a tad stodgey lately. better story than a couple of the previous books. a solid addition to a familiar series.
"engrossing listen"
this one captured me right out of the gate. vivid storytelling, excellent narration. a couple elements are predictible, but perhaps that is only because human beings are predictable. original story, familiar good vs evil theme, but from a surprising direction. Highly recommend.
"take a chance, love the perspectives"
Have to agree with all the praise for this book. the first couple chapters are halting, as the stage is set, but the story deepens and becomes richer fairly quickly. Love the different take and perspective on the zombie phenom. The last 1/3 of the book was difficult to stop listening to.
"didn't realize it was a bodice ripper when i purch"
this is a classic bodice ripper, and even though I want to tear it to shreds, i will not.
If you are looking for a brainless, light-hearted adventure romance, this just might be the book for you. If you are looking for something smart with riveting romance (along the lines of Outlander) this IS NOT it, at all.
the author is overly preoccupied with prodigious penises, blinding blue eyes, and massive physiques, to the detriment of the plot.
