Left to Right: Rosetta Stone; Reports from a Roman Soldier; Lewis Chessmen British Museum The rush hour ends around 9:30, so taking Underground trains is a little cheaper after that. I met my friend around 10:30 and we went to the British Museum. It’s got an awesome Egyptian display. Many other eras and people are…
Note: I don’t own the rights to the picture. Pretty sure it’s just one of a dozen different versions of the movie’s promo posters. Summary: You know what happens. It’s kind of like watching Titantic in that you have a general gist of the story. The taglines are pretty cool. There are a few very…
A West London borough Arrival The 8:35 flight from Newark got into London’s Heathrow Airport around 8:30 at night local time. There’s currently only a five hour difference time-wise.

5/5 Princess Kayla and the Dragon Who Wouldn’t Clean Up Most of the things I’ve been reviewing have been available through audible, but this one came through it’s own app. Summary: It’s been a long time since I’ve read a choose-your-own adventure type book. This one’s pretty much summed up by the title. It’s about…
4.5/5 A study in ridiculousness Summary: A semi-competent ensign gets assigned as the liaison to Kili Wanna with the job of getting them to sign a treaty with the Galactic Guild. What follows is a series of predictable yet amusing events. Additional Comments: – Don’t take the book too seriously. If you’re looking for…
Summary: Carly’s left to fend for herself emotionally and practically become a single mom because her husband, Michael Bishop, decides to pursue some career opportunities. Additional Comments: – It’s predictable. – There’s excellent character development in everybody but the main characters. I love Joseph Xavier and his family. Even the in-laws progressed believably. Michael,…
