I've finished "earthly powers" and overall it was a good book. I'm still thinking about it two days after finishing it, so that speaks a volume in itself. There were some interesting twists in the end, and like all fictional biographies covering long spans of time, I had to watch a lot of characters I grew to like, DIE. But "that's life" as they say.
As much as I've been avoiding doing so, I've recently started reading all the conspiracy theories surrounding the 9-11 attacks. Like all conspiracy theories, there is a lot of complete nonsense and kooks. There are a lot of 'weird' things surrounding the whole escapade, so like with all conspiracies, I'm taking the whole thing as a beautifully complex and fanciful story. I always find it interesting the machinations of the human mind when it tries to engage a Mystery.
I am, however, about to go to sleep, because I must be up by 2pm Central Standard Time, and my brain functions are running at a very low wattage right now. We've had 'workers' replacing drywall in the downstairs bathroom, so my sleeping, like my brain functions, has been low as well.
Tah-Tah.
