What are you reading this week of January 15, 2017? [View all]
Still reading Snow Crash. Haven't had much reading time due to being blind-sided by one of the worst winter storms to ever hit this area. A REAL snow crash. Yuck. Thought I'd moved away from that sort of thing. Anyway, I must say this book is turning out to be more than I expected. It is getting into some mind-blowing stuff about language. 
I just watched Stephen King's Dead Zone. Someone on DU had mentioned that it seemed rather prophetic so I got it from the library. For a while I was wondering what the great insight was. Then, POW. Way to see the future, Mr. King. Of course our real outcome remains to be seen. Good story, though.
You reading anything prophetic this week? Or just trying to stay away from reality?
