13. Well,

I do do a lot of 12 oz elbow curls. Hopefully that will help.

I love that I just found this: Turtles All the Way Down. The expression is an illustration of the concept of Anavastha in Indian philosophy, and refers to the defect of infinite regress in any philosophical argument. Contrary to most extant western references, it is not a popular Hindu belief. Rather, it is a widely accepted principle in Indian philosophy, commonly used to reject arguments for the creator God or "unmoved mover".

No Angel is, as British Good Housekeeping wrote, an absorbing page-turner, packed with believable characters and satisfyingly extreme villains, eccentrics, and manipulators.

And then, from Zelazny: A band of men on a colony planet have gained control of technology. With it, they have given themselves immortality and godlike powers, and they rule their world as the gods of the Hindu pantheon.

Great choices, all!
