Blessed Beltane!

A year ago today I was in Edinburgh, having enjoyed the Beltane Fire Festival the night before.  If I lived there, I would go every year.

Eleven years ago today, I was at the zoo getting married.  I try to go there more than just every year. ;)

Book meme

Got this from jaunthie. 

"What we have here is the top 106 books most often marked as "unread" by LibraryThing’s users. (Question: what the heck is LibraryThing?) As in, they sit on the shelf to make you look smart or well-rounded. Bold the ones you've read, underline the ones you read for school, italicize the ones you started but didn't finish. Here's the twist: add (*) beside the ones you liked and would (or did) read again or recommend. Even if you read 'em for school in the first place." 

( What the fuck is this list based on?! )

I'm having a hard time figuring out how this list makes one "look smart or well-rounded".  It certainly makes one look completely random.
