Okay a rant on Books Vs. Audio Books.
I Love to read, I just finished a amazing book
Kockroach by Tyler Knox, "Kafka's "Metamorphosis" is turned on its antennae in this roaringly entertaining noir novel. Knox's debut begins with a cockroach waking up to find he has been transformed into a man."
After I Finished this book I listened to a audio book
Heart Shaped Box by Joe Hill "Middle-aged rock star Judas Coyne collects morbid curios for fun, so doesn't think twice about buying a suit advertised at an online auction site as haunted by its dead owner's ghost."
When I told friends about listening to the second book I was met with some snobbery. Why not just read the novel? why would I want to listen to the book with someone else's skew on the story, and the answer is simple. I'm easily distracted, I try and read on the bus or when I'm out at lunch and I'm not gonna get into the book as much as I would if it were playing in my ear. Thats it short and sweet an audio book is a easier way for me to get entertainment.

Then consider me blushy and suffice it to say I think Starvin with Louis kicks ass and have been peddling it to co-workers and family alike since your first episode. You're cute too.
