But what about everything after that?
Now is it bad enough that you let somebody else kick your butts without you trying to do it to each other? Now if we're all talking about the same man, and I think we are... it appears he's got a rather growing collection of our bikes.

Ha yes, every thing after as well...
But while the first few chapters are full of surprises... The rest is just cool!

I signed up - eventually, it didn't like my email anti-spam filter - and downloaded it.
And I've already got it and the next three in the series ...

Do it. I've read both. Very different books, but both fun.

I can strongly recommend all his books. I started with Redshirts, then the Old Man's War series.
They are not without things to be picky about, but the characters are just nice to spend time with. And, in common with Starship Troopers, you rapidly work out that maybe you're not on the "good" side...
I am one of "those foreigners coming over here and stealing our jobs". Yay me!

I'd say that's cruel and unusual punishment!
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

This poor man robbed a bank because he wanted to go to prison to get away from his wife. The judge sentenced him to 6 months home confinement!
Does he not just have to leave his home to get his gaol time?

But what happens after 6 months? He can go free?

Well, the 50' of cable going from the pole across the street to the house...
...was missing!!!
Apparently some over-height truck must have come by and ripped the whole cable off, taking it with them. There certainly wasn't any cable lying around anywhere on the street!
Either that, or very large rodents with a hankering for plastic and copper.

You should get wireless internet. No cable required.

In South Africa theft of copper cables is big business. No cables are exempt: Not high voltage transmission cables nor low voltage telephone cables. High voltage cables have a nasty habit to bite back when they attempt to harvest them: A few perpetrators were fried doing it. A friend of mine who lives in a rural community in the Cape Province regularly loses his Internet service for weeks on end, due to theft of telephone cables serving his community.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
