DHD Book Club

Deb has a new post up, "Being John Nash," and how her life somewhat resembles a mix of A Beautiful Mind and Being John Malkovich.

Since she mentions her difficulty getting obsessed with math, I thought it makes a nice segue to Prime Obsession, by John Derbyshire of National Review.

In the case of this book, people are obsessed with the riddle posed by Bernhard Riemann, and less by the man Reimann himself (though Derb goes a long way toward appreciating him).

There's even a Turing reference in the book, to keep things relevant.

My first thread is for sharing books you've read (or written, but you can couch it as one you've read to retain your privacy if you choose) and the impact they've had on you.

Hiccuping all the way.

Good idea! You guys are bright and grounded in reality; I'd be curious what you read.

For fiction, my two best recommendations come from opposite ends of the spectrum:

The Following Story, a story in the magical realism realm, and

True Grit, by a guy who bought me a drink many years ago.

For nonfiction, just pick up anything by Stephen Ambrose. Hell, he even made George McGovern into a hero. The WWII generation deserves to be studied, because they recognized evil, while we dither about "root causes."

Damn...site went down. My post never even showed up and that was an hour ago.

I went to get the kidlets and also said my blog is now unmoderated since Blogger finally put in the verify thingie and I don't have to worry about all the spam anymore. Yay

Tune of "Luka"

My name is Debbie
I attack little kids
I blog all the time you know
Yes I think you've seen me before

If you read something that isn't right
If you think I'm stupid well then you're right

Just don't ask what went wrong
Just don't ask me about the law
I won't answer after all

I am a moron
I like drinking Teh Vodka
I never make much sense
My spelling is like a child

When I come trolling to your site
It might be day it might be night

I just don't have a job
i just have no friends or family
I just shouldn't post here anymore

Dumb Frisch girl
She's been living in her dumb Frisch world
I bet she's never had a real job
All she does now is sit at home and sob

That's why we all flame that dumb Frisch girl
She's been living in a Liberal world
As long as anyone without a brain
Her face looks like it was hit by a train
No brain no pain

And when she's blogging, she's drinking some real cheap wine
And when she's raving she'll show you she's out of her mind

She can't see she not real smart,
She smells like a fart
and that's because

She's a dumb Frisch girl
You've seen her raving on this site right here
She is a coward and a criminal too
And when the cops come she will cry boo hoo
What's she to do?

And now the end game
is coming
are her parents to blame
A useless degree
I decree that our Debbie

Is a dumb Firsch girl
Our dumb Frisch girl
She's gonna cry cause she's a
Dumb Frisch girl
Our dumb Frisch girl
She has no cash she's a gash
She's our dumb Frisch girl
Our dumb frisch girl

Hell, he even made George McGovern into a hero. The WWII generation deserves to be studied

The one thing I like about Jimmy Carter and George McGovern, much as I disagree with their politics: they served this country honorably in the armed forces and then kept their yaps shut, unlike a certain presidential candidate who liked to mention his 3-month tour of duty at every campaign stop.

(Just got through reading "Godless" by Anne Coulter and I'm also reading "Cryptonomicon" by neal whatsisname, oh f*$# wouldn't you know I would blank out on his name right when I needed it to remember it)

Doctor Hudson's Secret Journal by Lloyd C. Douglas

This book was written by I believe a Methodist preacher wrote this. You don't have to be Christian to follow the principles, I first read this when I was a kid; while it was a little advanced for me, the central concept he is explaining has proven over and over in my life to be true and valuable. In the end, the single most important book I have ever read. I believe following the central concept, which you have to read the book to learn, has saved my life, enriched me both spiritually and financially, and brought me chances and adventures I would never have had otherwise.

The Gulag Archipelago by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

When I read this book, it took me almost a week to get through it. After reading it, I had gained so much. One thing I learned: my possessions have never owned me since, and that's a much more profound statement that you might think at first glance. I don't always agree with his political conclusions, but no one could deny his genius.

Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah by Richard Back

This book just resonated with me. In a kind of lucky charm way, sometimes when I just can't figure out my next step I'll open it to a random page and there's always something to help, whether it takes my mind off of the problem at hand or triggers the thought of a solution.

What was that coffee brand you had this morning? I am in awe!

You mean John Kerry served in Vietnam? Really? I never knew or would have suspected.

Naw...wasn't the coffee. I just feel inspired. My muse finally showed up, flashed me her gargantuan freckled mammalian protuberances and just let me go.

Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for Hosedragger and the Fire Gerbils!

In all fairness, what else did Kerry have to talk about? He had no real policy, no special expertise...

It was Vietnam or his hair.

 
At 4:06 PM, Blogger Fatwa Arbuckle said...

HoseDragger, my man -

What sort of coffee did you have today; you've been on effin fire.

[I salute your shameless self-promotion, too]

Thanks for being the first to have my back on that last thread.

I'd really love to know what that harridan in You, Jean actually reads, if anything.

 
At 4:13 PM, Blogger Fatwa Arbuckle said...

Since I missed last evening's scandalous affair and the casting of "DHD: Teh Movie", I would like to request that Christopher Walken play me. (As Abe Vigoda's dead.)

I would also like to compose teh score (as long as I can keep all of the publishing plus a healthy piece of mechanical and broadcast royalties).

At 4:16 PM, Blogger Retired Fireman said...

Oh, oh, oh
Frisch won't make a dime
Oh, oh, oh
Frisch won't make a
If she said goodbye to us tonight
There would still be damage left to right
What else could she do
She's is to stupid not to
Realize she'll never make a single dime

Once she thought her blogging can't go wrong
Now she sees her carrer leave poof it's gone
That's where we found her
Now she sits alone and whimpers
She will never make a single dime


Oh, oh, oh
Frisch won't make a dime
Oh, oh, oh
Frisch won't make a
We're that voice you're hearing in your head
You're not alone not even in your bed
You should have stopped when
Daddums bailed you out because then
Listened when you're told you won't make a single dime

Maybe this won't last very long
But you think you're rightright
The courts say you're wrong
Maybe you've been hoping too hard
But you've gone too far
And it's more than we hoped for


Who knows how much further you'll go on
Maybe we'll be sorry when you're gone
We'll take our chances
You don't know when to shut your yap and
You'll never ever make a single dime


You claim that all children are fair game
We told you to refrain
But you are insane
Now we know the woman that you are
You're Teh Crazee one by far
You don't even own a car


You don't care what consequence it brings
You about to lose your house and all your things
You wish it so bad
But not even you own dadI intend Will be giving you a single dime

 
At 4:17 PM, Blogger OregonMuse said...

Brenda, did you read all 3 volumes of Gulag? If you haven't, you really ought to. 20 years ago I started the first one, and was so utterly blown away by it, it became my religious duty and devotion to read them all.

 
At 4:18 PM, Blogger Retired Fireman said...

When did Abe Vigoda die? He was just on Conan not too long ago. Are you sure?

 
At 4:19 PM, Blogger Retired Fireman said...

Abe's still alive. I decided with the help of Brenda, to stick with Charlie Sheen for me, but he needs a walrus stache

 
At 4:22 PM, Blogger joeschmo1of3 said...

Hosedragger:

And he takes requests! Abe Vigoda is still with us, it's just a running joke because one of the tabloids said he did, back in the 90's.

 
At 4:23 PM, Blogger BrendaK said...

OregonMuse -

I only read the first one. I ought to get to the other two. It's been twenty-seven years since I read the first one and it's still the second most influential book I've ever read.

 
At 4:24 PM, Blogger Fatwa Arbuckle said...

Hose -

You're quite correct about Mr. Vigoda; apparently reports of his demise have been greatly exaggerated since 1982.

(Search engines are my friend.)

I think I'm gonna stick with Walken.

 
At 4:25 PM, Blogger Retired Fireman said...

Walken ROCKS. I think he should play you as he did Max Schreck

 
At 4:26 PM, Blogger BrendaK said...

Fatwa -

I gotta have more cowbell, baby!

 
At 4:30 PM, Blogger Fatwa Arbuckle said...

Walken does "scary-ass, creepy menacing" , "outright nuts" and "teh funny" well. (But he's a much better hoofer than I.)

His Schreck is part of why I'm sticking with that choice.

That, and I simply cannot get enough cowbell.

On the off-chance you're anywhere near North Hollywood, call Jarin's (on Magnolia near Lankershim).

They spoiled me for every Thai place I've eaten since and their prices are preposterously reasonable. Lovely folks, too.

You can't run, you can't hide, From all the laws you won't abide
See that girl, Watch Deb scream, Blogging the Frischie dweeb

Friday night Teh Vodka flows
Looking out for blog to go
Where they talk about politics, Gonna take a swig
You come in for a hole to dig
Nobody could be this dumb
Debbie's brain is so surly numb
Spewing out all her comments, Thinking she is smart
But it only proves she's not
And when she get's too drunk...

She is the Debbie dweeb, Dumbest thing you have ever seen,
Debbie dweeb, Cowardly, you can hear her scream all night
You can't run, You can't hide
This will follow you all of your life
See that girl, Watch Deb scream, She is the Frischie dweeb

You're a loser, you can't get laid
Can't get a job and you can't get paid
Calling home to mother, but daddums will always do
Hoping his check will clear
And when you get real drunk...

She is the Debbie dweeb, Dumbest thing you have ever seen,
Debbie dweeb, Cowardly, you can hear her scream all night
You can't run, You can't hide
This will follow you all of your life

Do yourself and your fiancé a favor some time soon and try that place (they've got ridiculous lunch specials). It's next to the Greyhound, but don't let that deter you.

And, iffen you don't mind, tell Sarah and Ning that the David who moved to OH from the band full of David says "hi". (They'll know who you're talking about.)

Or if he's not, his body hasn't got the message yet.

Lived off that stuff for two years in Seoul. Loved it.

If you're curious about the status of Mr. Vigoda, there's even a firefox extension that gives you his status at all times.

the loveable codger is staring at me right now.

hawksp -

I have read One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich. That one is really great for introducing people who don't have time for Gulag to Solzhenitsyn. It was hard to read because of the desolation, but you could feel the cold and utter hopelessness and cruelty.

What I remember best was his start at prison. This intellectual with no knowledge of criminals trying to adjust. It all still just really moves me.

Not kidding, absolute genius.

 
At 5:01 PM, Blogger Cthulhu said...

One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich

I read that in high school. Excellent, but gave me nightmares. I switched to Dostoyevski to cheer myself up; somehow, the greater passage of time made Crime and Punishment easier to handle.

 
At 5:03 PM, Blogger BrendaK said...

Come back later! I'm off to dig out something to eat. I think I still have some cornbread and black-eyed peas.

Mmmm-mmm-mm-mm-good!

Her looks will make you flee
She is Teh Craziest woman that

She had the dumbest lines
Doesn't know our spies
Knockin' herself out with
WTF Vodka cries
Wishin more than her share
Her stench pollutes the air
She thought she was right but the cops were already there
When Teh Crazee starts bloggin
She strains her noggin
She's gone job shoppin
Her titties are floppin and Deb-
Frisches all night long
Yeah Deb Frisches all night long
She cannot earn a dime
All she does is whine
She will lose every time, She is blind to her crimes
She thinks she deserves applause
Bangs her head against walls
Made some really dome mistakes and keeps coming back for more
She's seen wandering round
Her stupid Liberal town
Now she's back on the web, She's Teh Crazee Deb
When Teh Crazee starts bloggin
She strains her noggin
She's gone job shoppin
Her titties are floppin and Deb-

She thinks she's smart, second She's too dumb to see, The hole she digs, Thinking she'll go free, Begs for cash, and we just laugh.

When will she, go out and buy a Sharpie, make a sign, to make a dime, instead she'll whine, that's just fine.

Schadenfrisch, darling Schadenfrisch.
Her mom and dad, are feeling sad
They recall, Watching their bank balance fall, how she ruined her life, what a mess, I confess, We've enjoyed it all.

Though she stalks, and always has to walk, still she blogs, for always, we are left with, Schadenfrisch
