I read "The Wild" in two sittings!
I balled my eyes out at the end.
It's good. Quite good.

Woo-Hoo! Another lover of "The Wild!" My favorite all-time book (and I have 4,000 books)!

Aww - cool Glad you liked it Rex, it is indeed a beautiful book. It's definitely my favorite fiction book.
*high fives Amarok*
My favorite non-fiction is 'The Soul of An Indian' by Ohiyesa.

*Whistles* That many books?? Do you live in a library?

I think it would be cool to live in a private library.

I know I must have near that many, because I've been putting them into a storage unit volume by volume . . . box by box . . . bag by bag. Funny thing -- I was storing them with the intention of moving soon from my little crackerbox apartment to a bigger place. But with them gone, this place isn't so bad.
Wait -- my PC and printer take up all of my kitchen table -- and I can fit in either furniture or more tables to spread drawings or maps or -- well -- things I'm studying on. Not both.
Heck, ten times a day I want to spread a magazine, a story, or a drawing pad out on something to examine it -- but there's no place to do that -- so I put it away and forget it. No wonder I'm going nowhere fast!

Yeah, I know the feeling. I tried to get inspiration in my room, but It's so messy and small (8 feet by 9 feet).
So I go out to the small living room and make a mess of it.

Punx, here's WolfMontana's original howl in the wilderness concerning "The Wild":
http://www.forum.werewolfcafe.com/viewtopic.php?id=946
As a matter of fact, I was googling for any info on the book last year and clicked on that very thread -- that's how I discovered the Cafe in the first place!
So if I ever do anything to embarrass the Cafe, Monty's to blame.

Ha! I had no idea!
Any blame that comes my way I'm going to cunningly deflect to Blue. Just for funsies.

Do that and I will just transfer the blame to Zage!

*Watches "blame" shoot back and forth between Monty, Blue, and Midnight, ducking frequently.*
Aaaaugh! I'm having flashbacks to Dodgeball practice at Herbert Hoover Elementary!

You know, we never played that game when I was in school - growing up in Australia n' all. I feel kinda blessed.

Yours, WolfMontana? She has your looks.

Don't be fooled! It's probably a dodgeball with legs and a tail glued on! Just one of their many tricks to get into your good graces.
So Monty never knew the joys of dodgeball, eh? Never heard that dreaded "BANCH - BANCH" sound of up to 50 burgundy-red rubber spheres bouncing off the gym floors, walls, and your fellow warriors' flesh? Never encountered that one semi-deflated ball your enemies could pinch up into a little handle so they could hurl it into your face with the force of a mortar shell? Never been the last one standing, scampering back and forth like a rat to avoid the other sides' final barrage?
Actually, since each team had to stay on its side of a line across the middle of the gym, you could avoid the bullet for quite some time if you were alert. But occasionally the coach --
*Zage wearing coach's white baseball cap blows whistle.*
ZAGE: Red-Liiiiiiine!!!"
*Team of Cafe werewolves charges across the dividing line carrying dodgeballs.*
AMAROK: Nooooooo!!!
BANCH - BANCH - BANCH - BANCH - BANCH - BANCH

Oh god!!
Again, counting my blessings over here The worst we had to do was... well, actually, any kind of PE was sorta the worst thing we had to do. I hated PE.

*Whistles a coach whistle*
