I actually bothered to buy Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom, so I'm damned well going to wait and read the atoms instead of the bits. Besides, I should be doing schoolwork. Unfortunately that doesn't explain why I'm plummeting through The Ultimate Cyberpunk, kind of a supplementary collection to the Bruce Sterling-edited Mirrorshades, edited by Pat Cadigan.
If the book Blood Music is anything like the short story (also in Ultimate), I don't know any book I would like to read less on the basis of story content.

Anyway, I showed Lee the excerpt of Neuromancer graphic novel in it, and he remarked he'd have to get him some of that. Was any of it actually published, or just the part in the book?
The university bookstore didn't have the programming languages textbook, Pratt and Zelkowitz' Programming Languages: Design and Implementation, and they aren't expecting any more 'til next week, so I guess I'll have to get it on Amazon or something. They had my Business Management 311 book, though. Heh.
I may buy some Low CDs when I buy the languages book. I realized today how little the bits to which I love them are.
