Hi all, check this out.

What you do is think of an object then answer the 20 questions it asks, it's very accurate.

This is too much for me,I'm gonna stick with a gin and tonic while reading Look Homeward,Angel for the thousandth time.

What a fine book, Carleton! I haven't read it in many years but it sure stuck in my mind.

Have you read any Percy Walker? I'll bet you'd enjoy his style and stories, too.

I read Love in The Ruins years ago,damn fine narrative power.

Almost read The Moviegoer,I hear that's acknowledged to be his finest.

I read, "The Last Gentleman" without having heard of Percy and I was hooked. I would have to agree that "Moviegoer" was probably his best. It is a good psychological study of the main character. Folks "of a certain age" who have lived in New Orleans appreciate that book in the way they speak of Toole's "Confederacy of Dunces". In both books you can smell the city in the pages. Incidentally, Percy wrote teh forward to "Dunces".

The Percy's are a pretty amazing lot. Somebody could write a heck of a novel just from the characters in that family. For some insight, try, "Rising Tide" by John Barry.

Cool. It got Space Shuttle and Cranberry. 28 questions to get to trumpet but I was actually thinking Coronet.

I played twice.

The first time I was thinking of nasal spray, and it thought it was a mouse trap.

The second time I was thinking of nail clippers, and it got it in 17 questions.
