    No rush..
    I have 3 kids.(say no more)
    Im also busy reading Michener`s Hawaii..
    What a book!
    What a schedule!!
    NO MORE...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Here we go... I said it, now what...???

    If Micheners Hawaii is as thick as Texas and just as slow and longwinded, aint much of a read, good as a doorstop.

    I recommend pure and unadelterated escapism reading Wilbur Smith, Tom Clancy and Jeremy Clarkson.... etc.

    i find that jeremy clarkson's writing (for me) is either extremely interesting or extremely boring - depending on the subject matter at hand. However, maybe this is just because i am interested in some things and not in others!

    Yeah..
    Micheners Hawaii maybe as thick as Texas but I hasten to add,not nearly as stupid!!
    The first couple of chapters are pretty tough but if you survive those 2 then the rest of the book becomes extremely entertaining and very addictive..
    Ive read it twice..But then I have time on my hands.
    (which is ideal when reading a book of that depth)
    and what are the downsides to your present life?
    I had a good think about that question today but still cant think of a decent answer..
    What do you think the downsides might be?
