DarthEbriate Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 1 hour ago, Crosschecking said: Over the past two days, I finished reading two books. Yesterday, it was We Cannot Be Silent by R. Albert Mohler, Jr. Today, it was A Defense of Liberty Against Tyrants by Junius Brutus. Now comes the hard part: modernizing the latter. It's going to take some time, but I believe it will be well worth it. I may read Machiavelli's The Prince just to see how much the other book was an outright antithesis. I just put The Prince into the box to go to Half-Price Books... when I can go to HPB again. My wife and I are going to clean up the "library" shelves and decor with the added free time and it was time to purge some of the ones that I just won't re-read and kids can readily pick up for their various classes. Also going out are a pile of Greek plays. I'm about to dive in to the "classic number" books that I didn't end up reading in high school. Fahrenheit 451, Catch-22, Slaughterhouse 5, which I had stockpiled from HPB over the last couple years and still hadn't gotten to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very weird book where the reader has to pay attention to what's going on. Nonetheless, Kurt Vonnegut used some of his wartime experience as a backstory to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason, my right hand is extremely tired. I got a marble run puzzle as a gift, looks cool, it'll take me some time to piece together, looking forward to sitting in the sun room and playing mad scientist once my work stretch is over.

Radar Posted April 7, 2020 Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 I'm retired. Daughter has ordered me and wife to stay in. Fortunately her husband is in food service and has to work. Daughter brings food and leaves in garage blows us a kiss and goes on her way. Spend most my time doing what I normally do. Have enough books to last me. Interesting that I really don't miss sports at all. Check with me few months from now maybe that will change. Still do check this site though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PromoTheRobot Posted April 7, 2020 Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 Between working from home, I've been baking a lot. Working on perfecting my no-knead bread recipe. (The secret ingredient is honey.) Being the kitchen manager. Major cleaning and repairs around the house. Prepping the pool for it's spring opening. Walking the dogs daily.
