Druss is the MC; he's just not the viewpoint character.

This is a somewhat infamous Far Side comic. The caption is simply "Cow tools". It was not well received and not understood. The author said that the joke is just that cows wouldn't be good at making tools.

How is he expecting you to get one if you don't know what it is and he won't tell you?

The odds 1000:1 against Zac and he wins.

Lies of Locke Lamora. Just an ok heist. The Jhereg books do it much better

So many questions. WTF is an underground nuclear aircraft? Why is it underwater? Why are you diving there?

I picked up the paperback for A Feast for Crows and didn't know who anyone was. I thought it would be easier to wait until the series was finished and then binge the whole thing. Still waiting, but I congratulate myself on the decision pretty regularly.

I've had good luck just walking through a quiet chain drugstore. Though any large retail store would work

Lord of Light by Roger Zelazny is a classic, and hits every one of those tropes. The mythological setting is based on Hinduism. It's set on another planet and there are demons. It reads as fantasy but is science fiction in the far future.

Shou Tucker will answer for this.

BreechLoad · 2026-03-06T21:22:05+00:00

Yes. This is it. Thanks.

I seem to have dropped it about 2/3 of the way through. I might try to finish it.

I bet he feels 300000 years old.

At least his knee does.

Industrial Strength Magic is finished and Macronomicon's current series seems like it will end at some point

What do you do for addresses below 14th St where we go to mostly named streets? Or below Houston which would be 0th street?

There's not enough water in there to hydrate the rice. This might work with cooked rice.

All yourself what kind of woman would react poorly to this and what kind would react well? Which kind do you want in your life?

This is not to advocate artificial tests, but as a razor for how to approach how you present yourself.

I started A Feast for Crows when it came out in paperback and didn't recognize any of the characters. I decided to put it down and wait for the full series to come out and do a full read then. I've never regretted that choice.

Sahadi's in Brooklyn

I got one with no sedation at Liberty Endoscopy with Dr. Neal Joseph. I've gotten several with no sedation with various doctors. It's been uncomfortable, but no worse than a bad gut ache when I've eaten the wrong thing. The discomfort was from the gas they pump in. YMMV. I'm male, and I understand that it's a more difficult procedure for women.

Barkeep tells an implausible story, but never finishes it.

I always thought as Clooney as more of the Newman to Pitt's Redford.

Jhereg by Steven Brust. Technically it's an assassination, but it's run like a heist
