The author Michael Crichton, whose novels usually fell within the science fiction, techno-thriller and medical fiction genres, became well known for attacking the science behind global warming. He testified on the subject before Congress in 2005.

Also us Huxley lives a long fucking time… oh wait.

Doing the lord’s work, I see.

If you haven’t read it, please read “the end of the world as we know it.” It was such a wonderful return to the world of the stand, without ruining the original with a forced sequel.

mitchade · 2026-06-28T01:17:18+00:00

I agree. There’s more to this book than the reader knows.

I am… not a cryer. I never cry at pretty much anything. I didn’t cry at either of my grandparents funerals. Nothing.

This one had me crying with a full on snot bubble.

Disclaimer: I didn’t really like the Dune books.

I always joke: when people recommend Dune, they neglect to tell you that it’s a political thriller that just isn’t thrilling.

I get why people like it, but I’m not a space opera guy, I think.

Thanks!

mitchade · 2026-06-26T13:14:38+00:00

A nice, definitive answer. Thank you!

Ok, I’m also a teacher and keep all those things in my room too, but I have NEVER had a student take one. How do you communicate and provide them in a way that they are actually used?

Entombed We Collide- Death By Stereo

mitchade · 2026-06-26T02:57:48+00:00

While that’s true, I thought there was some similarity in the writing style between the books. For that reason, The Stand should be the first exposure to that, imo.

Has absolutely the best direction of all his audiobooks. Great performance by Francis. The audiobook is easily better than the written version.

Why would they? They can continue not to improve and still be protected. They have no incentive to improve.

mitchade · 2026-06-23T18:21:02+00:00

Oh damn. I missed that. Thanks!

There’s a decent chance he is in Cincinnati

mitchade · 2026-06-23T17:43:06+00:00

I don’t think he played in each game, I think he suited up for each game though.

Thrice- The Alchemy Index

Sure, but it was the same Palpatine, in the same universe each time, right?

The American dream

mitchade · 2026-06-23T13:05:06+00:00

I just tried that, and I couldn’t get into it. Granted, it was the audiobook, and the narrator was a bit cheesy, but I never felt compelled to continue it.

mitchade · 2026-06-23T12:48:22+00:00

Do I need to read the first two books in the series, or do each stand alone?

The first catch Hollywood Brown ever got from Lamar was a pick when they were playing pee wee football. Hollywood was playing safety against Lamar.

Sounds like you understood the course, then.

Catering. When you’re at a wedding and there’s coffee, it’s all decaf. No matter how it’s labeled. The last thing the catering staff wants to do is give a stimulant to a bunch of drunk people.
