Filler

Okay, The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Doestoyevsky is slowing me down considerably. I guess its all about the luck of the draw because June through July I was on a break-neck clip and was thinking I'd possibly have the list chopped down to 950 by year end. But these last few books have changed that, now I'm hoping to be at 960 by year's end. I'm almost halfway through TBK. I'm setting a fairly ambitious EFD (Estimated Finish Date) of October 1.

I guess I could announce that the book waiting on deck is Ignorance by Milan Kundera. This book was selected by a dear old friend, Sarah Shelton (Ok don't give me that look.)

On a book-related front, it often bothers me how much fast food I eat. I work kinda weird hours so its not always conveniant to cook. Add into that the fact that I cannot cook. My house may have gremlins because honestly I can't even get popcorn right anymore. So basically if I don't eat fast food I usually cook a frozen pizza or something else frozen, which is just as bad as the fast food. Anyway I did a Google search for "Dinner for One" thinking surely they'd be something alas no. Then I looked for cookbooks on Barnes and Noble and theres actually a couple but its ridiculous stuff like foie gras.

I really should be a television executive. Why doesn't Food Network have a show called "Dinner for One." I mean I can't be the only person with a toxic personality. We shouldn't be forced to either 1)waste food, 2) eat the leftovers for a week, or 3) Eat a box of salt with an alleged piece of frozen chicken. Also, I'd make an American version of Top Gear and most importantly I'd do it right. NBC actually had a version in development and its currently in The History Channel's hands. But it won't be as good because they won't want to piss off potential advertisers. Which I really didn't think of until I read about it my personal flaw in an American Top Gear would be the celebrity portion I just don't think American celebs would be as good. I'm hereby throwing my hat in as a presenter. Now I'm not especially a "car guy" but I'm not asking to be the lead presenter (Jeremy Clarkson) but I can serve in the Richard Hammond role.
