I'm at work scanning a massive amount of documents into the computer, so I read while it's doing its thing.



Anyways, I'm knee-deep in Neal Stephenson's Quicksilver at the moment.

Wow. That must cost a pretty penny.



I, too, would read that very carefully.

It seems like there's definitely diversity with respect to reading material around here...

I tried to read for a while. The book has to be very interesting for me to sit and read. Call it short attention span, or maybe I've just read a bunch of shitty books, but I don't really read anything unless It's on nopistons or I'm looking **** up on the internet.



Or if it's a final fantasy game, with subtitles. I enjoy reading but I think books take up to much time or something. I dunno. Maybe I'm just impatient.
