With the recent death of its author, J.D. Salinger, I felt that it was time to finally do something I have been intending to do for years, read his classic. I was disappointed. Maybe it was because I had high expectations after all the hype. Maybe it was because I kept expecting something to happen, you know, the classic building action, climax, resolution thing. This book is nothing like this.
Written about a couple of days in the life of a teen who was newly expelled from yet another private high school, the author explores the traditionally pessimistic, skeptic, somewhat depressing view that youth has about the world created by his predecessors. Written with plenty of voice, this book is an enjoyable read, as the reader waits for something to develop. I could almost hear the voice of this book’s contemporary, Jack Kerouac, in the pages. But nothing does happen. Maybe that was the author’s point. In any case, I found that disappointing.

I’m confused. Artemis Fowl is actually the antagonist of this story. How can the main character of a book be the antagonist? He is very un-likeable to the point where i almost put the book down. Here we have these good likeable fairy creatures and this spoiled rotten little boy just terrorizes them. I actually wanted him to die at the end. I think maybe this author got his priorities wrong when he developed this story. If the reader doesn’t like the main character, then there’s a problem. I will buy next book in this series and hope that Artemis becomes a bit more likeable. If i was still 12 years old and i saw Artemis on the
Eat Me The Journal
Received this item loose but in a typical plastic clam shell. Since it was not manufacutre sealed I have no way of knowing if this was simply re-pacakged. I used card on my H4n Zoom and it recorded sound just fine. However, I also used the card on my Canon Vixia HS10 and as well as on a Canon T2i with deterimental results. There was no indication that the card was not recording but when replaying video, somehow the recodrings came back corrupted. It seems like the card was not fast enough to capture HD footage, but this is just speculation.
The footage was important, and therefore I was upset to notice it unrecoverable. Not happy with card or purchase and will most likely throw it away.
Sad part is, it wasn’t that much cheaper than buying from a physical store…
The Meat We Eat
Got this pedometer for my wife. She loves it. She likes that it will store data for the last 7 days. So when she updates her walking journal @ America on the Move she can log in once for the entire week. But the best is that it counts aerobic steps and total steps. There are days when she does a lot of casual walking in the office but the intensity and benefits are not the same as when she goes out for a 30 minute dedicated walk. Highly recomment this product.
