Library score! Where the Wild Things Are and more!

Posted by Mop (238 lbs) (aka rburriel) Aug 17 '09, 13:00

All juvenile or juvenile-reader books...

A series of books titled "Captain Abdul's..." (School for Pirates, for instance)
A series of books titled "Would a Princess...?" (Wear Hiking Books, Scrape Her Knee, etc.)
And a DC Superfriends title that my son's going to flip over!

- I've never read Where the Wild Things Are or had it read to me. -- nm - Danoslam Aug 17, 13:03 13
  - one of my roommates had never heard of it before seeing the trailer. that shocked me. -- nm - mafic Aug 17, 13:12 1
    - knowing what you've posted here about your roommates, I can't say I'm that surprised. :) -- nm - znufrii Aug 17, 13:18
  - call mara every day and ask her to read you a page over the phone. -- nm - Max Aug 17, 13:07 3
    - Slower... now breathier. -- nm - Mop (238 lbs) Aug 17, 13:17
    - A good idea, but for me the book was always about the illustrations -- nm - con_carne Aug 17, 13:09 1
      - I can describe them! -- nm - mara Aug 17, 13:13
  - I know I owned it as a child - I remember very little about it, though -- nm - Beryllium Aug 17, 13:06
  - I think I may have owned it as a child. So it may still be at my parents... one of the few kids books I had. Still, don't recall the story. I may... - Mop (238 lbs) Aug 17, 13:05
  - Me either, never heard of it until a year or so ago. -- nm - Krusty Aug 17, 13:04
  - ditto -- nm - ty97 Aug 17, 13:04
  - but he has kids. -- nm - loosilu Aug 17, 13:04
  - I will tuck you in and read it to you. -- nm - Spawn Aug 17, 13:04
  - bwah? -- nm - znufrii Aug 17, 13:03
Told you. -- nm - Spawn Aug 17, 13:00
Also... 30 minute walk in 90 degree weather. I get a Coke as a reward! -- nm - Mop (238 lbs) Aug 17, 13:00 15
- A 30 minute walk probably didn't burn the 155 calories in a 12 oz coke. -- nm - ty97 Aug 17, 13:01 11
  - What about 140 calories? -- nm - Mop (238 lbs) Aug 17, 13:05 9
    - did you walk at a slow, medium, or brisk pace? -- nm - ty97 Aug 17, 13:06 8
      - Brisk. I'm no a pleasant person to walk with. -- nm - Mop (238 lbs) Aug 17, 13:10
      - I ask, because this calculator says I may be....wrong -- (link) - ty97 Aug 17, 13:07 6
        
        Geez, even "Walking for pleasure" beats "Slow pace". That's odd. -- nm - Mop (238 lbs) Aug 17, 13:11 3
        
        Thanks for the link, by the way! -- nm - Mop (238 lbs) Aug 17, 13:12 2
        
        you're welcome. Caveat: I just googled the link, have never used it, and can't vouch for its validity -- nm - ty97 Aug 17, 13:13
        
        GTK: reading burns more calories than watching TV. -- nm - Mop (238 lbs) Aug 17, 13:13
        
        I always wonder if these things take your basal rate into account. I suspect usually not. -- nm - mafic Aug 17, 13:08 1
        
        probably not. But they take the oregano rate into account. -- nm - ty97 Aug 17, 13:12
  - in 90 degree weather? There's a chance it might have. - Beryllium Aug 17, 13:03
- *diet* coke -- nm - Andie Aug 17, 13:01 2
  - He said reward, not punishment. -- nm - Spawn Aug 17, 13:02 1
    - exactly -- nm - CQ Aug 17, 13:03
