Dune is one of my favorite books. I still have only read the first sequel, but I should probably try to read more of them.

Hi Shred. I wrote a review. It's more of a life-story but hidden in a review. It's weird and wonderful. Just thought you should know.

Dune is on the list of must-read series one of these days, but I have not read it yet either.

I'd really like to read Dune. Has anyone seen "Jodorowski's Dune" about the psychedelic Dune movie that was almost made in the 70s?

I have never read Dune, but I'm about to start reading Brave New World by Huxley, as soon as I finish this collection of short stories by Franz Kafka.  I'd like to read Dune someday too.

As for school, tomorrow is the last day of 2nd grade for my daughter.  She's really going to miss her teacher.  She put together a Power Point presentation for her and made me put it on a thumb drive to give to her.

I've seen some stuff on it and it looks insane, I wish it had been made. :(

I have The Metamorphosis and Other Stories sitting on my desk currently because I had jokingly said something about how I'm basically Gregor Samsa and I wanted to make sure I wasn't actually very accurate.

I don't know if this is of interest to anyone here, but I've started reading Dune for the first time ever.


Dune is great. Approve I want to go see the documentary Jodorowsky's Dune.  Which is about a 1974 adaptation that never was fully planned but never fully funded or filmed.  It was set to include music by pink floyd, magma, and tangerine dream.

This seems a bit odd to me. The first 4 notes are the same, but after that, they're different songs.  Let it go.

Maybe the publicity will boost sales of Spirit's first album.  It's a fantastic album, more people should hear it anyway.
