Re-re-re-re-reading the Dragonlance novels.

The first novels I read as a kid, so they hold a special place for me along with just a plain-fun fantasy series.

The Assault by Harry Mulisch. Pretty much required reading for Dutch high school students. Pretty interesting stuff about the effects of the Nazi occupation on a kid as an adult

I'd be interested in the read. I just watched a show on the history channel about Hitler's children. Kids of the Aryian race that were taken from their parents and placed with foster families. If you have Netflix, I suggest. I do believe it was titled Hitler's Children.

It made me very aware. Of rabbits. And their violent ways. Never turn your back on them, with their hoppy legs and twitchy little noses.

The Monty Python Knights of the Holy Grail never read that book, I'm guessing. :-P

I've been reading the Mary Russell series, a series by Laurie King dealing with SherlockHolmes and Mary Russell, and their adventures together in sleuthing and relationship, from the time after the Doyle books and later.

I have been going back to the Song of Ice and Fire series by Martin, but it's just not "grabbing me and not letting go". I know it's a popular series and all, I just can't seem to get into it.
 
Just ordered it through Amazon. Can't wait to make some miso!


Sent from my TARDIS at the restaurant at the end of the universe while eating Phil.
 
Miso like mead takes a year or two to be ready, they even have miso on the order of 5, 10, 50 even saw a century miso once... I plan to have some serious fun myself, once I get the koji rice. It's rice that has Aspergillus Oryzae mold gown on it to produce the needed enzymes for making miso. It's a PITA of a singularly sleep depriving series of steps needed to culture the mold and rice properly, every 1 to 2 hours for 40 hours you have to baby it or it'll be ruined. And you thought mead/beer/wine were finicky PITAs!!
 
Miso, hmmm. Had no idea it was so complicated. Egg drop soup is ready in like 10 minutes. Not sure I want to take on another fermentin' hobby, esp one that complicated.

I just ordered Bees Don't Get Arthritis. Have both bees and arthritis, so will be a great read for me (I hope).

It is mainly a journalist's dogged pursuit of anecdotal evidence, not a medical text.
It seems likely that Apitherapy may work in the same way that Prolotherapy works
(see Regenerative Healing for Life by Brian Shiple DO)
Unfortunately, because both are dirt cheap, no pharmaceutical will invest in them enough to study them adequately for FDA approval.
Anecdotal evidence doesn't cut it in the world of evidence based cost effective medicine.
When I finish Bees Don't Get Arthritis I'll advance to Bee Venom Therapy by Dr Bodog Beck
