Such a good book. Checkout Hundred Years War by Desmond Seward. And don't tell Darlon b/c he should get credit for the rec and i don't want him to!
Your secret is safe with me. Honestly, I sent that guy $50 last year, and he never even said thank you. ;)

Don't send him money.
He'll only spend it on anime porn and bat soup.
Some people can't be trusted with cash, that's why his Mum stopped his allowance.

None the less, your virtuous paper recovering was outweighed by your degenerate porn addiction and I told your mother as much during one of our clandestine motel rendevous.

Dante's Inferno, trans. by Stanley Lombardo. I read his Illiad translation, so I'm giving the Inferno a try.

Please stop posting copyrighted material on this forum. You did not personally write the Inferno. While the copyright has expired for Dante's work, Lombardo still owns the rights to his translation. By posting about it on here, you are stealing intellectual property as well as engaging in defamation. In many states, that is a class 3 felony, which can result in 6 months in jail+picking up trash by the highway.


Cease and desist.

Dude, you have told me in confidence that you have ADHD and dyslexia and that you cannot read. There is no shame in admitting it. I have already sent everyone on here pm's about this and told them to be nice to you. I have trouble reading too. It took me nearly 2 years to finish Of Mice and Men, and I had to cut down my job to two shifts a week just to figure out that Lenny Smalls got killed in the end. There is no shame in not being able to read well. I struggle with it too.

Lol that book is pretty epic. Qaddafi needed his own cult of personality text, and Mao already took the color red for his, so Qaddafi settled on Green. Apparently when Sadat and other leaders came by on summits, Qaddaffi would always try to seel them really heard on it, but they never gave a fuck lol. Qaddaffi was a pretty fun dictator. He had style and class, not like these half assed dictators you see today.
