No, I haven't. Thanks for the tip

You should really read Fools Rush In if you haven't, it's the most amazing book.

I'll have to check it out.

Catcher in the Rye is much more of a basic introspective premise. Revolves much less around a plot as it does the concept of youth, adulthood, innocence, and becoming.

You usually study Catcher in the Rye in English at school. It's a popular choice.

I'm currently studing The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson. If you want a short book, which leaves you mindfucked in the end, choose it.

"Anyway, I keep picturing all these little kids playing some game in this big field of rye and all. Thousands of little kids, and nobody's around - nobody big, I mean - except me. And I'm standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff - I mean if they're running and they don't look where they're going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That's all I do all day. I'd just be the catcher in the rye and all. I know it's crazy, but that's the only thing I'd really like to be."

HAHAHA I'm just kidding. There's no way. He was a great bit of fun though...that's really how I connected with you first, wasn't it? We took our conversation about him to Twitter, along with Joe. Where the f*ck IS Joe?

He was a bundle of fun. Hilarious when he had 15 people against him during the snippet argument. And he still wouldn't back down. Yeah, it was actually, and it was how I started talking to Joe a lot too. Us 3 usually just had conversations about Bob, and basically bitched about him

Joe is on the site everyday, he just doesn't post everyday, but he told me that he is incredibly busy with school work. So am I, but I still manage to appear here everyday and post. I suppose that means I'm not entirely committed...

Who is PMcG on here anyway? It got figured out/admitted to but I wasn't around.

And that's a shame that I never seem to catch Joe around here. I understand the busy load of schoolwork...I unfortunately understand that all too well.

I suppose I'd have to keep that a secret still, but to tell you without actually tellling you: he left a couple of months ago and pronounced himself "gone". Although, he is caught lurking about occassionally.

I know. U2start was/is incredibly busy during Summer because everyone is on their holidays so people have a massive amount of free time going spare. We had massive GC conversations going. It was great.
