Much as I do like Jon Stewart, thinking of him in connection with the Oscars continues to give me a terribly bad taste in my mouth.

Everything to do with memories of the Oscars -06.  >:(

I don't like Jack Nicholson much either, for the same subjective reason.

In other news, I just picked up today's mail and my "Queen's Gambit" book has finally arrived! So where are the discussions happening?

I am flying on a plane tomorrow (weather permitting) and have The Queen's Gambit as my reading material. I don't think the discussions have started, yet.

How about starting on Monday (if we discuss it in parts)? If we discuss it as a whole, I'd say give it a week from now on.
Since this was Clarissa's idea, I'd say leave it to her to start a thread in the Culture tent. Clarissa, you could start the thread but keep it locked until we start discussing. This way, others still have the chance to jump on the waggon.

Just my 2cents, I'm open to whatever Clarissa or the majoritiy decides.

I have been wanting to read The Queen's Gambit since finding out it was Heath's favorite book, but I have not ordered it yet.  Will people be discussing it here?  If so, I will read it sooner rather than later.  I am just finishing up a book.

Here is an interesting coincidence - I was watching a show the other night, and the name of the episode was "The Queen's Gambit".  I guess the book is calling to me.



We are talking about having some sort of a reader's group, yes, Susie...either here or on a special thread dedicated to the discussion.

I've ordered the book on February 7th and the delivery is apparently delayed.  :-\  I hope it gets here soon.

I would so love to participate, but I just don't think I'll have time. I have a lot of reading for my classes this semester. Maybe I can read it during spring break or something and catch up on the discussion then...

Hey Heathens, if you get the E! channel, there's a half-hour special on Heath at 8:00 pm ET tonight.  8)

I bought "The Queen's Gambit," too.  Bring it on!  :)

I've never done this Youtube posting thing, so here goes. It's just a tribute video set to May Angels Lead You In, by Jimmy Eat World. I like Jimmy Eat World, I like this song, and I like the Heath pics/videos.

Hey, it worked! This one is a lovely video of only smiling pics. I haven't seen a lot of them before.

I don't know why this is so small, but...
