Chuck Palahnuik has written some great stuff.
The first thing by him I read was a short story 'Guts' about a kid who gets his intestines sucked out of his *** by the suction thingy at the bottom of a pool. Yeah.. pretty awesome ¬___¬

Guts is very entertaining. not for the squeamish, but funny/disturbing as hell.



The Divine Comedy is really a great work, as much as disagree with Christianity. It's very well written and a good concept.

The fantasy writer Pier Anthony is basically my favorite authoer. Piers Anthony's Xanth novels are quite good. Lots of puns.

Yes, he is..... I hate his books though. Sorry, Archem2!

My favorite book, erm.. uhh, i'd have to say The Annotated Chronicles is the best. And it's long, 1312 pages to be exact. The author is Tracy Hickman.

Hey, that's cool. We all have our preferences and opinions, that's what makes the world cool. It'd suck if everyone thought the same, right?

Let's look at that.

At first, everyone is the same. Same opinions, preference, taste etc., though still an individu. At some point, there will be 1 who think life is boring and try something. He'll get followers, they'll get followers and in the end, it would end up with everyone being different. Which is better.
