We have a winner. I am currently reading The Areas of My Expertise. A very funny book. Matter-Eater Brad is the 410th Hobo name.
Team of Rivals looks interesting for a future book and Wicked is waiting to be read.

I'll guess at No 1 - Ivanhoe.
It's about a Russian male prostitute, isn't it?
Hic!

If it were Candide, you'd be finished by now, but it's one of my all-time favourites, so I'll guess it anyway!
The only character in all of literature who has been described as "badnass" while using the phrase "vile miscreant."

No to all of you, I'm afraid. I read To Kill a Mockingbird when I was a freshman in high school (oh so long ago). The Devil one is one I saw in Borders that looked kinda interesting if not a little dumb. Da Vinci Code is sorta on my list but I just can't seem to generate enough enthusiasm. And big fat no to King Lear. Just... no...

Newp!! I did look at it before, cool graphic novel, but the movie was a little... weird for my tastes.

President X? I haven't read the book, but the reviews sounded interesting.

Sorry RL -- it's on my list though!! I bought it and everything. Granted it was only a couple bucks but... yeah. You got it Quis!! You're up. P.S. I've read Fried Green Tomatoes -- it's much better than the movie, IMHO. And, Catfish and Mandala is one of the best nonfiction books I've ever read. Everyone should read it.

OK you should all know that my favorite subject in school was history.
What, besides gym (never did climb that rope), was my least favorite subject?
1) English (I think I'll never see a poem as awful as ...)
2) Math (Why do I need to know this if I have a calculator)
3) Science (OK class come up and get your frog)
4) Spanish (Why can't they just learn English"
5) Wood shop (It's suposed to be a spice rack)
6) Art (It's supposed to be a bowl of fruit)
7) Music (Can someone pass me a bucket so I can carry this tune)
8) I had no least favorite class, I'm such a nerd I loved them all.

Nope and Nope.
Even though I didn't do so well in them, I liked them.
