Gaol is the old english term, today we all use Jail

Now reading Master of the World by Jules Verne-his last novel and hailed as a 'truly prophetic science fiction classic'!

Hya, not sure really as Tyneside is further north of me. But here in Darlington(Cleveland, South Yorkshire, no-man's land?) things are OK

Ooops, sorry, poor knowledge of English geography. I thought you were on or near where the Tyne started. My bad.

(Oh, it's catching. I've been watching episodes of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer". My English is pretty suspect right now.)

Finished up Boneshaker by Cherie Priest last night. It was a very enjoyable read. I burned through it in less than a day I think.

I've moved on to Dealers of Lightning: Xerox PARC and the Dawn of the Computer Age by Michael A. Hiltzik.

Thanks for the reminder. I've had that book on my TBR list for ages. I worked at Xerox in Sunnyvale, right around the corner from PARC, from 1982 - 1988. I was a developer for the "Star" system. Pilot OS, Mesa programming language, mice, windows, distribruted e-mail, distributed directory (Clearinghouse). What coulda and shoulda been if Xerox had figured out how to market all that stuff.

Just finished reading "The Rule of Law" by Michael Mullane in "This I Believe"

you can read or listen to it here:

http://thisibelieve.org/essay/9574/

This is a wonderful book full of personal beliefs and convictions ... some that can open your eyes. The above is one, two others so far (I'm about halfway through) have blown me away....the rest are 'just darn great!'

OMG! I stared reading this book and find it hilarious! Of course I started reading it in a public place. Have a stupid grin that I can't wipe off in between laughing.

Yes, I liked it... I can't see myself reading it again, but it was good, while it lasted..

I must have something seriously wrong with my sense of humour, because I laughed at lot throughout the book.
