The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

What are you reading?

Right now, I'm reading The Appeal by John Grisham.  It is a very good legal thriller.

I'm currently reading "The Fires of Heaven" by Robert Jordan. It's part of the twelve book series "The Wheel of Time".

:lol

I REALLY need to get to my books. :p They are all collecting dust as I type.

Right now, I am reading the bible. Acts 27 to be exact. I don't really want to read it, hence I am multitasking to finish up this assignment and typing this.

I'm also reading Romeo and Juliet. I'm decoding it pretty well XD

Right now, I'm reading the book Dragonspell, by Donita K. Paul. Until recently, I have been unaware that this is a Christian fiction novel, but I'm too into it to care anymore. I just ignore the religious hints, and I'm okay.

I've advanced to the next book in this Christian fantasy series, Dragonquest. I also have found a way to make the book a little more interesting and entertaining.

In this book, there are four figures that can be directly linked with religious figures.
  • Wulder - God
  • Paladin - Jesus
  • Risto - Antichrist
  • Pretender - Satan
To make the book more interesting, I have done something that some Christians might call heresy. I've switched around the religious figures that these four represent.
  • Wulder - Satan
  • Paladin - Antichrist
  • Risto - Jesus
  • Pretender - God
Since I am against religion, I decided to find ways of making this book entertaining while simultaneously ridding it of any significant religious implications.

Same here, Stitch. I've taken a break from Dragonquest to read the current book in the Inheritance Cycle.

Stuff on the No Child Left Behind Act.  Not the most exciting, but certainly a necessary read.

Shakespeare's histories and some of his comedies (not quite voluntarily but as preparation for a very important oral exam on October 15th).
