Well I have officially blasted through The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams (no relation) or at least I don't think there is any relation. I mean I'm sure way back in the annals of Adams history, the Adamses got on a ship from England and sailed over here. So its logical to believe that somewhere over there are some of my relations.
Other Adamses that I'm not knowing related to:
John Adams-Though from reading a biography on him, I can see some rather stark similarities. For instance, he constantly felt underappreciated and he believed people didn't like him.
Samuel Adams-Though it would be cool if I could get some free beer for them using my last name.
Michael Adams: He was an astronaut and though many in my family seem to be from outer space there is no reason to believe we are related.So now that thats done, onward and upward. Next on the agenda is technically The Riddle of the Sands by Erskine Childers. However, I will have to wait for it to be shipped to me so I will tackle The Great Gatsby. I'll see if this Gatsby fellow is truly "great."
You are blasting through these books Keith!
ReplyDeleteYeah the last several I've had have been short. Old Man was barely 100 pages and the other recent ones were like 150-200.
