Good Enough...
I finished my third Greg Iles book last night. "Third Degree" is its title. It was about half the size of the first 2 books I read by Greg Iles but, I think it actually took me either the same amount of time to read, or longer. It was slow to pick up in the beginning and had peaks and valleys. The end was good. It had moments of intensely fun plot points but, for the most part, I wouldn't rate this book any higher than a 5.5 out of 10 on a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the best.
I am struggling to decide whether I want to include it as a Recommended Read because, it just seemed too difficult for me to maintain interest. I sort of felt like I was obligated to finish it because I started it. On the other hand, I could recommend it, if only for the end. It was a good ending.
So, I guess I will settle for leaving it in your hands. I like action packed books. Books where I can't wait to turn each page. Not books where I am paying almost as much attention to what page of the book I am on as the words on the page.
Perhaps, if you are interested in it, borrow it from a local library instead of paying for it. As I said, the ending was good. Not phenomenal! Just...good. Worth getting to, just not worth all the difficulty it took to keep my attention on the book, in order to get to the end. I am not sure if that makes any sense at all. I can't really think of how to explain what I am trying to say. I guess, the ending is worth the dull build up you must wade through in order to get to it.

American Idol Hype: A Daily Count
FEBRUARY 4, 2008: 15
The first 10 happened before 10 this morning. That is a bit much.

So Boring Today...
What do you talk about on a Monday, after the Super Bowl, when you aren't really a sports fan? I kind of don't have much of anything interesting to say today. Sorry!
I can say that it was a busy sports themed weekend for me. I went to a hockey game Friday after work and then to a Super Bowl party at my neighbor's house. So, while I had a good time on both days, I can say that I am all sportsed out. I am pooped today. I am really dragging my butt around all day today. I can't really get my act together. I should be pouring caffeinated beverages down my throat but, I want to sleep well tonight so, my AM latte will have to do.
So, other than today's AI Hype Count, I am afraid that you will just have to wait until tomorrow to see anything worthy of your attention. Sorry! Of course, I reserve the right to change my mind if something interesting happens anytime before I knock off for the night.
Till then, have a great post Super Bowl Monday!

Douche Bag
Some Douche Bag was driving up my butt hole on a busy highway where I was already going 75. I couldn't go any faster because there was a line of cars in front of me. He tried to pass me in the slow lane and had to get back behind me when he couldn't get any further due to the guy in the car next to me. So, he proceeded to be up my butt until I had to shift lanes for my exit. He finally got past me, only to be behind the car I was behind. Got real far there, didn't ya?
You would think that this guy was driving some expensive, my dick is the biggest dick in the world and I have the money to show it, kind of car. The coup de grace was when I saw that he was driving a Mitsubishi Lancer which he purchased at a Porsche dealership (according to the plate border). Just because you bought it at a Porsche dealership doesn't make it a Porsche, dude!

39 Days...And Counting...
There is a house in my subdivision who still hasn't taken down their Christmas lights. But, nevermind the fact that they haven't yet taken them down. I guess something could have happened recently that has their minds preoccupied. But, they still have them lit every night. That is when you go from possibly being preoccupied to just freakin' lazy.
And, they aren't just lights. They are their entire gambit of Outdoor Christmas Decorations. Ribbons and bows, wreathes and actual Christmas tree shaped lights that they stuck in the ground along their sidewalk up to the front of their house.
Yup! Lazy.
If you haven't gotten around to taking everything down, at least remove the stuff that stands out, even in daylight. Strands of lights are less noticeable in the daytime than red and green ribbons. And, don't light them up at night.

Overkill Much?
On my way home from work yesterday, I started flipping through my XM presets on my car radio and 3 out of 6 of those presets were playing "Love Stoned" by Justin Timberlake.
VOMIT!

An Underlying Theme...What Gives?
I just started Third Degree by Greg Iles...my new favorite author. But, I have found one thing that I don't like about his writing. Every woman is a harlot who either cheats on her husband and/or has an affair with a married man. In all 3 of his books that I have read, the main character finds herself fighting with her inner harlot. In the first one, "Blood Memory", the hero of the story was pregnant with a married man's child and fought her desires for him throughout the entire story.
In the second book, "True Evil", the main character carried an unending grief over the death of a man whom she loved and whom loved her. He was married though and, while he never cheated on his wife with her, they made their love known to one another just before his death.
And, now in "Third Degree", the main character is struggling after she finds herself pregnant with another man's baby. Both of them are married to someone else.
Why is Greg Iles so obsessed with married men and their mistresses? Why do all the main characters have some illicit relationship with a married man? In 2 of the 3 cases, the woman beats herself up about it while the man has this quiet heroic quality. Why does it seem like she is always a little more guilty of this transgression than the man. And, why is the wife always some evil, high-gloss, uncaring bitch who seems to deserve her husband's roving libido?
Don't get me wrong. I really love Greg Iles' work but, I feel he could give the misunderstood tragic harlot role a break.
