    I cannot explain how difficult this is. I actually got up and took a brief browse over this ever growing library and decided to cut it short as it'd take too long. Perhaps I, Lucifer; maybe The Illearth War, Pale Blue Dot? The God Engines? The Wise Man's Fear? Song of the Beast? The Starflight Handbook? The Tao of Jeet Kune Do? Snow Crash?

    7) What's the most embarrassing thing you're willing to admit to on an internet message board?



    8) What do you think your five year old self would have to say about your life now?

    I love it too. I have quinoa puffs, quinoa chips, regular quinoa, and pretty much anything you can put quinoa in.

    So many people put it down because it's "health fad", but it's awesome.
