Finished the first volume of the hunger games a week ago... exams coming up so probably not gonna hit the next 2 for a while.
This book had 2 firsts for me, it was the first book I pirat*cough*cough* bought in ebook format, and the first book of this size that I read in English. Haven't looked for Persian translations, but if I didn't find any, I may just translate it myself. Then release it on the internet for free. *ggg*

Great books but takes some serious reading, smallest book is like 900 pages.

Movie = Horrible.
Books = MoFo Win.
Loved the radio play, enjoyed the TV series, enjoyed the film, can't get into the books, but it's been a few years since I last tried so I might have another go now I've caught up on my Pratchett and a few other sci-fi books.
Books : 9/10
TV series : 8/10
Film : 1/10
Yeah... the books were funny, and Adam Douglas did have a lasting legacy in the fiction scene of the UK. I read the first book, but couldn't dig into the subsequent ones.
is this from the same producer/series as the film "the meaning of life" which was also complete nonsense ?
It's a 'trilogy of five' and yes, i'm a huge fan of Douglas Adams...hence the name

Because they ruined it, it wasn't true to books. They tore apart the orignal story and cobbled bits together. Hollywood didn't do it justice.

## warning ## going down to zero will black out the xooms screen and you might have to swype blindly to get it back... like I did. Narf

I'd like to see a mod that just fixes the original limits so I don't have to use a separate app to change the brightness.

I'm going to have to suspend your man card for 30 days. No man should put the words "man cave" and "late night reading " together in the same sentence unless its followed with " so long story short ,I shot him through his book and yelled this is a man cave not a book club. I then grabbed a beer and watched the game/playboy channel.

MW3 is the CoD where people are finally realizing how rehashed the game is. I had people in Kmart all night talking about how it is essentially just a map pack for MW2. They even reused buildings from CoD4. Lolololol

Go home and drink lots of beer and watch movies and tv shows with the gf
I like to go out, but trying to avoid it as it eats way too much money!
Play Settlers of Catan and drink beer.
