    Egger: Heres the history of our medicine.
    "I have a sore throat."
    2000 BC : "eat this root"
    1200 AD : "That root is heathen, say this prayer."
    1500 AD : "That prayer is superstition, drink this elixir."
    1800 AD : "That elixir is snake oil, Take this pill."
    1900 AD : "That pill is ineffective, Take this antibiotic."
    2000 AD : "That antibiotic is artificial, Here why dont you eat this root."

    I've read Stardust, American Gods, and Good Omens. All three are wonderful. I've also read all of The Sandman. I'll maybe look into picking up the others, though. I don't read a lot of fantasy, but his style just seems to somehow agree with me.

    I haven't bought anything recently besides Pride and Prejudice. Which I've already read. Yeah, I know, I know. But it was a nice edition~

    the last book I bought was stephen colbert's book, when it came out(I got The Pillars of the Earth for the holiday). I've mostly been getting stuff from the library, I just took out The Year of Living Biblically, it looks pretty funny. On a side note, Pratchett is without a doubt my favorite author, I've read all of his books.
