Well as the lovely Natalina said, who knew that two babes from different continents would end up blogging about our love of all booky things together and be so fabulous? Well we think we’re fabulous and that’s what counts isn’t it?
I’m Cheryl, or CJ…depending on my mood and I’m from the sunburnt country of Oz – which happens to be totally waterlogged at the moment and in drought (more. . .)

In Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s character describes itself as being a cybernetic organism. We know his type better as simply ‘cyborgs’.
The Oxford Dictionary describes a cyborg as ”a person whose physical tolerances or capabilities are extended beyond normal human limitations by a machine or other external agency that modifies the body’s functioning; an integrated man-machine system”.
The less formal Wikipedia says fictional cyborgs are (more. . .)

Call me a nerdophile, but I don’t get upset when my computer at work plays up – I just sit back and wait for the lovely Scott, our resident IT guru.
I’ve been known to angle my way towards him at after work drinks, so I thought why not take our drunken bitching about co-workers to the next level?
“Scotty, it’s Bec from level seven, how are you? (blah (more. . .)

At first glance, “Goodnight Nobody” appears to be your run of the mill classic chick lit. While it is true that there are elements that will appeal to the traditional chick lit audience, the reality is that this is also a fantastic murder mystery, as well as an unapologetic commentary on the way women tend to lose themselves in their duties to others. It comes from one of the (more. . .)
Yesterday I came across some videos of N. Suarez “speed painting” on YouTube using Photoshop. Originally I was in search of all things My Name is Earl, but also noticed this clip. Suarez has some amazing Photoshop talent.
I would like to see this one updated though to include all of Rey’s new tattoos.

While looking around I came across this very cool video of someone named N. Suarez speed painting Randy Hickey from My Name is Earl. I have no talent whatsoever when it comes to Photoshop and other computer drawing programs, so this sort of amazes me. Then again I am often distracted by shiny metal objects. Regardless, this kind of art as with any takes some pretty good talent. N. Suarez definitely has talent.

Regan and I met at school about 12 years ago and have been friends ever since.
Even though we don’t see each other on a regular basis, we still talk over the phone and hang out occasionally.
So when Regan told me last week he was gay – I wasn’t surprised. I suspected it. I wasn’t sure, so I never asked.
A close friend has told me Regan had come (more. . .)

In recent days it has become apparent that the basic cable network TNT might be interested in picking up My Name is Earl for the show’s fifth season.
We need to urge them to take action and give new life to Earl.
We should all take pictures wearing the cool moustaches like Earl’s. Pictures by yourself, with friends, or even strangers. Although I might suggest you not taking pictures (more. . .)

He spun on his heel and started to walk away. I stood motionless not knowing what to do next. Is he leaving me here to fend for myself? Do I follow him?
After his body disappeared into the darkness of the surrounding trees I heard his voice. “Well are you just going to stand there?†I thought about this for a moment, actually thinking that might be the better option. This man…this thing…had turned me into something inhuman, something unspeakable, why should I follow him? The moment passed quickly as I realised that I had no idea of what was supposed to come next. I don’t know how to be a vampire. I don’t WANT to be a vampire!

Well it looks like a new Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie will hit the big screen after all. But before you get too excited about the prospect, neither Joss Whedon or any of the former cast will be involved.
The new movie will have no connection to the TV series so Sarah Michelle and Co will not be on board.

The Book of Job is a tricky section of the Bible, as it shows God and Satan entering into a challenge or a wager, with the life of Job, a humble servant of God, and his family, as the pawns.
I have always been fascinated by Job and his trials, and was mightily intrigued when I came upon the novel The Book of Joby by Mark Ferrari. I picked (more. . .)

For some of us it was Mood Rings and Pukka Shell necklaces, others Pet Rocks or Sea Monkeys – but whatever your crime – the 70’s certainly had its fair share of fads and crazes.
It was an era which didn’t descriminate either – young or old – there was always a new sub-culture just waiting in the wings – complete with its own group of disciples – looking (more. . .)
