Latest amusement:

on a site called LibraryThing (one of those sites where you can list books you've read, see who else has read them, etc.) the site offers "unrecommendations." You can look up any book and see what people who list the book are NOT reading. For instance, given the number of people listing "History of My Life" by Casanova, you'd expect 25.3 to have read "The Drawing of the Three" by Stephen King, and also 25.3 to have read "Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" -- and yet, no one who has listed Casanova's book has listed either. I guess we are talking about a different type of effectiveness.

A column on the side says: if you liked "Screw The Roses, Send Me The Thorns," you won't like "Little Women." Seems reasonable.
