Book Review - Quite Ugly One Morning by Christopher Brookmyre
The title of this book hits the nail right on the head. I have lost count of the times I have gone to bed drunk with a beautiful woman only to wake up, hungover and shocked to find that the pretty woman I went to bed with the night before has been replaced by what I can only say is usually a horrendous female version of my Uncle David...but unlike David they have facial hair. As for the boo...

Book Review - Noah's Ark by God
This book bears no resemblance to the movie starring Australian actor Russell Crowe! That said, I would be interested if Crowe, in his role as Noah, wanted to make room on his Ark for kangaroos, wallabies and Koala bears; as I saw none board the ark in the movie.

Book Review - The Iliad by Homer
Another great book by Homer. The guy amazes me, he really does, sometimes you think he is a buffoon, an idiot even, and then he pulls this masterpiece out of his bag of tricks. How he gets the time to write, what with working at Mr Burn's nuclear power plant and dealing with that rascal Bart I have no idea, but there is obviously more to the yellow skinned Simpson than meets the eye. I a...
