If anyone has some suggested reading material for the coffee tables at the Prickly, your comments are welcome*. And I request that any links to my blogs be associated with my pseudonym and not my real name, please.
Addendum: By "anyone" I meant "not internet marketers". And by "welcome" I meant "this is a play on the Prickly-Pineapple-as-a-hospitable-establishment theme," not "come and advertise on my blog." Just to clear things up.And now here's this thing 'cause I got tagged.
1. One book that changed your life:L’Etranger, by Albert Camus. I guess.
2. One book that you’ve read more than once:Graham Greene’s
A Burnt Out Case. There are several books that fall into this category, but I mention this one because I have read it maybe three times, and still I can’t remember a thing about it. I keep thinking I might like it, but I don’t think I do.
3. One book you’d want on a desert island:A magically neverending blank book in which I could write. A pen that never runs dry would be nice to go along with that.
4. One book that made you laugh:Message in a Bottle, by Nicholas Sparks. Because it was awful, awful! Horrible, cheesy, gag me with a spoon awful! I was reading it because my boyfriend at the time asked me to. (cough, snicker) THAT should have been a huge clue that he and I weren’t meant to be.
5. One book that made you cry:The Kite Runner, by Khaled Hosseini. I cried all the way through the book, for hours straight after I finished the book, and off and on for days after I finished it. I grieved for about three weeks thereafter.
6. One book that you wish had been written:How to Forget7. One book that you wish had never been written:The Rules. That stupid dating book. I haven’t read it, but I’m pretty sure it’s messed things up for us all.
8. One book you’re currently reading:Moss and Adams’
Heart Disease in Infants, Children, and Adolescents (Including the Fetus and Young Adult). The two volume set. Of course.
9. One book you’ve been meaning to read:The Holy Bible in its entirety. I confess I haven’t read it all yet.
10. Now tag five people:Saara

I can make a green pea levitate to the third level below puffintoad's ethereal sugar cookie.
Well you can't use just any ol ordinary pea. It must have smooth contours without wrinkles. Canned peas are too mushy, so it must be a cooked frozen pea. I've never tried a frozen pea or a raw fresh pea, but those might work too.
I'm reluctant to reveal the technique involved. If I were to disclose such information, then (no I wouldn't have to kill you) it'd become just an ordinary skill thereby making my mad skillz singular not plural. And who wants to have just A mad skill. That sounds slightly demented.
Puffintoad, if you are in the area why don't you stop by to see the proof on a professional video tape that captured me levitating a simple green pea in 1991. Or better yet, in person. I believe we have peas and carrots in our freezer. Don't forget to bring some of those ethereal sugar cookies. Of course, Camobunny, you're invited as well, but I understand if you can't make it.
