Stuff You Need to Know

I'm a book. My cover might make you dizzy. If you want to know if Beethoven was a punk, you should read me. Do you think you're an emirp? Then you should read me too.

I'd like to meet:

Other books. People who like to read books. People who like to play video games while reading books. Einstein. The Beatles. Mohammed Ali. Jimi Hendrix. Cleopatra. A spider on a train. A t-rex.

Music:

Bob Marley, Madonna, The Beatles, Green Day, Bon Jovi, Kelly Clarkson, Nick Lachey, Christina Aguilara, Outkast, Kanye West, Justin Timberlake, The Killers, Coldplay, Fergie, Gnarls Barkley, JoJo, Nickelback, Beyonce, Jessica Simpson, The Strokes, Blink 182, Rihanna, All-American Rejects, Panic at the Disco, Foo Fighters

Television:

Who needs TV when you can read me?

Books:

Heroes:

People who read in public. People who read in private. People who use books to prop open windows. People who use books to kill bugs.
