Taking my time and rereading Skin Game.
Man, what a book. On round two, I'm kinda noticing a few of the things that a couple of you folks mentioned
Spoiler:
ie. the broken arm being more of a plot device than a real liability
, but it's not enough to even make me blink, let alone think twice.
Just got to the part where Harry gets his new gun.
I had the great pleasure to fire a Smith & Wesson 500 a couple of years back.
WOW. I tell you, it's a LOT of weapon.
The thing is really heavy. Like rifle heavy. And the pull force on the trigger musta been like six pounds!
And the noise. I was stupid, and wasn`t wearing my hearing protection.
Seriously deaf as a post for about 8 hours.
You want an inflated sense of self esteem that only a gigantic revolver can provide? The S&W 500 has your back!

It is sometimes, especially when they are investigating some mystery. Sometimes it's easy to forget it's not taking place on Earth.

And your laptop has what behavior at home?

Watson, how often have I said to you that when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth?

Like I said, since I was working from home today... I used the same browser (Chrome). So, strangely the link works, but embedding does not. It is not in the firewall/proxy either. It must be something in the Windows installation then. Oh well, never mind. At least I can see them on my own computer.

Sorry, but Discworld is not urban fantasy. None of it is. It's not some is and some is not. None is.

Where do you keep finding these great pics Alan?
