I read everything I can get my mitts on. My variety is wide and the content vast. I read novels, I read comic books, I read biographies, I read historicals, I read books on nature and science, I read the box on my cereal. It's 100% likely that, no matter where I am, I'll always have a book in hand or close nearby. I love the printed word, I guess.
QUOTE SECTION:"What's more romantic than dying in the moonlight?""Champagne for my real friends and real pain for my sham friends.""I don't know what the Big Time is. It's relative to who you are and how far you've come...the Big Time is whatever you think it is: everything from 40 acres and a mule to owning Belgium, or having a pack of cigarettes and place to get out of the rain."-all by Tom Waits
