The Big Cat Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 I didn't realize until Friday that my first three hour graduate course of the new quarter conflicts with tomorrow's game. God bless DVR, I guess.
Leonidas Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 My only question here is how many people opened this thread, typed out "why the !@#$ did you start a thread about your own class schedule" and deleted it as to not bump this thread to the top??
stevestojan Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Seriously confused. What does FMLA have to do with this?
The Dean Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 I hate the saying FML. Awesome avatar, Woody.

Wooderson Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Awesome avatar, Woody. Thanks Deano, I took your advice with some of the H.S. Thompson books. I've read Fear and Loathing Las Vegas, The Rum Diary-- which was better than I expected, and the Hell's Angels-- which started slow but eventually turned out to be very good. I'm gonna take a little break from his books because I just picked up Tony Dungy's Quiet Strength. I've heard the Curse of Lono is very good, but what would you recommend?

If you like politics you can't go wrong with F&L on the Campaign Trail. I really enjoyed his collection of articles/short stories: Generation of Swine: Tales of Shame and Degradation in the '80s and Songs of the Doomed : More Notes on the Death of the American Dream. They are great bathroom books, that can be read when you don't have much time. EDIT: But if you are looking for more tales of degradation, from a different perspective, I'd recommend a little Bukowski. Try Factotum or Post Office, for starters.
