The author was evidently on drugs when he wrote it (so it's been said). I've never read it myself.<br>

Hmph, you comic artists and your clever allusions to outside literature. Making us readers look up the refrences and get smarter! For shame! <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... s/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I sometimes forget to wear pants.<br><br>Wait, I think that's shoes. Ic an;t be sure.<br><br>Anyways it's sroda complicated and is a big problem.

[Rikirk]

Eh...<br><br>It's sad really but im not much into book reading. I have a short attention span.<br><br>And I really only read history or sci-fi books now anyway. Yes im ashamed to say it but movies and tv have spoiled me. <br><br>I guess its safe to say the dumbing down of america has worked...well it has on me...but I am trying to get better.<br><br>

[Paul.Power]

I read a lot of books, but it typically takes a lot of shoving to get me to start reading a book not connected with a series I already read.

[DesertFoxCat]

Fiction is painfull to my brain

[Muninn]

Well being somewhat more interested in literature than seems normal in this modern world I've heard of Burroughs (I would have thought it was pretty difficult not to) but haven't read anything by him.<br><br>And it's not like this is the first Burroughs reference in Ozy and Millie.
