Gus (8) and I got to the end of this one and both had basically the same reaction — “I thought something was going to happen before the ending.” It’s like Dahl forgot to include the climax of the story.

Of my 17 friends who have rated this one, all of them gave it more than two stars, so I recognize that something may be fatally flawed in my own reading, but these stories just didn't get there for me. Maybe I showed up too late to the party? Clearly ...more

I was introduced to the Enneagram through Suzanne Stabile's lectures and found those to be highly relatable and forthright. The Path Between Us: An Enneagram Journey to Healthy Relationships brought more of the same. But adding Cron to the mix here b ...more

Another Dahl book I loved as a kid, but this one didn't land like I remembered. Gus (8) mostly LOL'd at the gluttonous child talking to his father as a mouse. ...more

Chuck Palahniuk
“At the time, my life just seemed too complete, and maybe we have to break everything to make something better out of ourselves.”
Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club

Steve Jobs
“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
Steve Jobs

David Sedaris
“Every gathering has its moment. As an adult, I distract myself by trying to identify it, dreading the inevitable downswing that is sure to follow. The guests will repeat themselves one too many times, or you'll run out of dope or liquor and realize that it was all you ever had in common.”
David Sedaris, Naked

Henry David Thoreau
“One farmer says to me, 'You cannot live on vegetable food solely, for it furnishes nothing to make bones with;' and so he religiously devotes a part of his day to supplying his system with the raw material of bones; walking all the while he talks behind his oxen, which, with vegetable-made bones, jerk him and his lumbering plow along in spite of every obstacle.”
Henry David Thoreau, Walden or, Life in the Woods

Henry David Thoreau
“The universe is wider than our views of it.”
Henry David Thoreau, Walden & Civil Disobedience
