    I am now enjoying The Devil is Not Mocked & Other Warnings: Selected Stories of Manly Wade Wellman (Volume 2). Between ebooks, audiobooks, and books, I tend to be "reading" several things at a time. Thus I am also enjoying Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and War of the Worlds: Goliath by Adam J. Whitlatch.

    And now I'm onto the 2nd in an E.J. Copperman's cozy mystery "Edited Out". I really should have entered my local library's Summer Reading Contest. Though, having only found out about it in late July, didn't seem like I'd have much of a chance winning anything.

    I'm reading The Third Cry to Legba and Other Invocations : The Selected Stories of Manly Wade Wellman (Vol. 1). A long time ago, I read a few of his Silver John books. This is all new to me. I enjoy his writing.

    Just finished "The Pope of Palm Beach" by Tim Dorsey. Serge is a rather strange fellow. Now I'm starting Murder Past Due by Miranda James. I'll see how she does, this is the first of her series I've read.

    I am listening to Sleeping Beauties, by Stephen King. About halfway through now, and gritting my teeth in a kind of fury. "I stand for all women!" By terrorizing them, making them completely helpless, etc etc etc. Don't seem to be the best audience for this book, but at least it's not hard to suffer through the audiobook to find out if I can believe how he ends it.

    In the last few months, I have been re-reading from my collection of Larry Niven books. I am currently reading "World of Ptavvs". It is told from several different perspectives. One is that of an ET who has been in stasis for two billion years who suddenly finds himself awake among humans somewhere in the near future. The ET is a Thrint, whose species has the power to control the minds of all other creatures, including, unfortunately, most humans. Other perspectives are human characters. Typical of Larry Niven, it is a richly imagined and entertaining story.

    Firing a Rocket by James French - He worked as an engineer testing rockets for the Apollo program. It was informative and had a sense of humor.

    Stitching someone to death with a needle takes too long. Knitting makes a better martial art.

    *groan*...I don`t knit Saber, I stitch. Mostly samplers...

    Hey, you know all those martial arts where they use farm implements as weapons? Why 'knot' knitting needles?

    Would the "gentle art" be knitting or judo?

    Just finished Focus on the Family Radio Theatre's rendition of C.S. Lewis' Prince Caspian. It was quite good. Sadly, focus on the family is apparently scum. Hate group. Argh!
