What's everyone reading/listening/playing/watching

Bill Burr's new show on Netflix, which is named F is for Family is fantastic. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.

So, I gotta say that Gardens of the Moon, the first book of the Malazan Book of the Fallen was sweet. I'm on Deadhouse Gates, the second one now.

I'm really digging this storyline. If anyone's looking for something similar to GoT or anything, so far this series has impressed me.

Book 4 was my favorite, then the movie disappointed me. I wish they would release a mini movie of the world cup. I was so excited for that, then it was cut out as soon as the game started.

I plan to do the Harry Potter audiobooks at some point. I stopped reading them when I started the fifth book. Never went back to finish them.

Basically, due to the actions of mine operators in the late 1800's and early 1900's, a shooting war was started in the hills of southern WV and culminated in an all-out pitched battle on Blair Mountain complete with machine-gun nests, artillery pieces, and aerial bombing campaigns against US citizens. It's actually a pretty important part of history that a lot of people today forget. Less than 100 years ago, a bunch of blue-collar workers armed with pistols, rifles, and shotguns basically took over half of an entire state, commandeering trains, automobiles, and entire towns, and likely would have defeated the national guard, state police, and federal forces if they had been more coordinated with a single, solidifying leader.

I guess they were more organized than the group taking over a wildlife refuge?

Wife bought me "What If?" By Randall Munroe (xkcd) for Christmas.

Fantastic read, absolutely hilarious.

I wish. My screen name is the result of a middle schooler dreaming. 13 years later and I'm no where close to that lol.
