Reading The Road, by Cormac McCarthy.
And, my one question (my sister was waiting for me) -- Favorite book of all time? The Grapes of Wrath, by Steinbeck, for the way it's constructed, the narrative chapters interspersed with the vignettes.
What do you love about Steinbeck?

Of Mice and Men. Do we have enough people today who can do whatever it takes?
The ending is so intense but so what we need in our society: people who can step up and do the hard tasks and just because they should (and I don't mean shooting someone, but anything that is unpleasant and not for personal gain, but because it is the right and decent thing to do--think what our government would be like-no, I can't bear to think how much better off we would be!).
That I don't have to read him since I'm not in school. (Sorry to anyone I just offended.)
Mostly, I like how the "S" comes before the "teinbeck".
My name is Maria Mody and i would like to show you my personal experience with Soma.
I am 52 years old. Have been on Soma for 2 days now. This drug, at 350 mg/day, did relieve the spasms in back and shoulders quite well. It allowed me to sleep well also. But for me, the side effects are heavy duty, so I would only use if the spasms are cripplingly painful. I had NO weird side effects with Zanaflex, although that doesn't work as well, nor with 5mg of Valium, but that's a bad drug to come off of. So, Soma's good for spasms but can have some disturbing side effects. AND: don't abuse this drug! If you do you'll end up a vegetable, and ruin things for people who really need it for pain.
I have experienced some of these side effects-
Soma gave me a dry mouth, and made me feel paralyzed. It gave me a strange spaced-out feeling, and almost felt like it was causing my muscles to quiver. Also upset my stomach, gassy and then blocked.
I hope this information will be useful to others,
Maria Mody
