and go to Rhino Times to read OSC reviews before they are posted here?

I have to go there every so often because my work system thinks that the Hatrack version is porn. [Dont Know]

Yup. They've finally started updating their site on a regular basis for the first time in over a month (and before that they were pretty good, too). I also like to read Scott Yost's humor columns.

Not unless somebody links to it in outrage. I make a special effort not to cheat, so I still have something to read/distract myself with later in the week.

I do the same thing with his books. At one point several years ago (before the magic that is bn.com) I essentially "caught up" with OSC--I had read everything he had written that was widely available. That was horrible! So now, in addition to buying some things I never could get my hands on back then, I pace myself with books such as the Women of Genesis books and Shadow of the Giant. And before I read a new series book I reread all the ones leading up to it, except with Ender now, where I either read the Shadow or the Speaker books (and Ender's Game), but not both, since I now classify that as two series.

Yeah, I know I'm O/C. And a nerd. [Embarrassed]

fiazko . . . a lot of people around here do claim that they are obscene . . .

[Wink]

True. [Smile]

I am just amused by the fact that only certain parts of Hatrack are blocked, and as porn of all things. Not that I'm complaining. If they ever block the forum, I will have to hunt them down.
