I also tend to listen to podcasts a lot when I'm at home. Since I can do other things while listening.

I'm also still halfway through American Gods, but I've lost steam in reading it. Not that it matters since I've read it a half dozen times already.

The "Memory, Sorrow and Thorn," series by Tad Williams. I'd read the Otherland books long ago, but never touched the series that made him famous... until now, obv.

I think it's the guy that played Bane in the Batman movie.

Farmer tan
Thanks everyone. He was diagnosed with lymphoma back in December. The chemo decimated his bone marrow to the point it had to be stopped. Very low white cell count and he's FIV+. He's really not eating at all and is starting to show some odd behavior. Last night I found him laying down in his litter box but not actually using it. Then he "fake ate" from his bowl, lapping his tongue but not actually touching the food. He had a few nose bleeds a few weeks ago. There is a thought that the cancer has spread to his brain. No use doing an MRI since even if they found something there is nothing to be done.

I wonder when the Rapha line will be featured in Walmart?

You've read all his other stuff, right? It's all been good so far.

My wife laughed at me when I made a point of going in to a Kentucky Walmart with her when we needed to pick up some baby food on a road trip. In addition to the customers, I was treated to the sight of a women's 4XL tank top with something to the effect of, "I make this look good" printed on it.
....so obviously Rapha seems like a natural fit.

Well, I haven't real *all* of it. I think there's a couple of short story collections I haven't been through, nor his comic book stuff. He may have released a novel recently that I haven't read yet, either, but other than that I've read all his long form stuff and liked it.
