Please don't thank me. Effusive fawning and obeisance of disciples, mendicants, and foot-kissers embarrass me.

Back reading the "Killing of the Eternal Song"

At the part where the Sinnurs have infiltrated the Temple.
The Sinnurs are the most ancient Religious order who practice the Three Monotheisms of Judaism, Christianity and Mohommedism by way of 'converting' through all three like a Boy becomes a Man becomes an Elder. By experiencing all three Monotheisms through one's life - one becomes a Sinnur and comes to understand the truest nature of God 'himself' for God is indeed a 'Male' for a Male's immortality is via the creation of something outside of himself, while the female creates her immortality 'within' herself.
So for a Sinnur - being a Boy is being Jewish, being a Man is being a Christian (which is only attained by becoming 'one' with a female in the 'double-helix' embrace) and being an Elder is being a Moslem. The irony of the Jewish 'boyhood' is that it is the 'older' of the Monotheisms and the Moslem 'elderhood' is from the 'younger' of the Monotheisms.

Anyway, I'm at the part where the Sinnur's are about to 'kill the song'.

"Inside Their Minds: Australian Criminals" by Rochelle Jackson. I have read up 50 pages on chapters regarding Carl Williams and Martin Bryant. Both rather sick individuals.

People want me to read "Vietnam: The Australian War" by Paul Ham. Seems easy to read, and I got through a chapter the other week without much fuss.

I've been enjoying The Wheel of Time series, although I unknowingly started with a prequel book but have since moved onto the main series... whoops!

Been listening to all the Ian Fleming James Bond audio books on the way to work, Much better than the movies, especially Dr No. I tried reading the later novalisation of Goldeneye but it was just to hard already knowing exactly what was going to happen after seeing the film.
