Two hours of fast and hard uphill and down, and by the time I was back in my neighborhood, I was just about at the end of the program and the only way I knew for sure that I'd been walking was that my clothes were soaking wet from the effort! What a delightful way to do Asimov!

I just got my virginity back. I recently finished Black Jack Justice by Gregg Taylor, available at Amazon and Smashwords. This is an ebook prequel to the popular podcast "radio" show also written by Gregg Taylor, and if you love the show as much as I do, this first meeting between the 1940s private investigators Jack Justice and Trixie Dixon ("Girl Detective") is a must read. True to the podcast, rarely does a civil word pass between them, but what can you expect of a working relationship that begins
Spoiler:
...with the two quite literally taking pot-shots at each other. Even now hardly a day goes by that Trixie doesn't "make a mental note to shoot Old Squarejaw."
