Absolutely. That's the joy of the Kerbling 'system' - someone will usually offer a friendly pointer to the earlier thread.

i'll defer to it
Is there a way to lock a thread?
No worries! The other aspect to a kerbling is natural selection... one thread will thrive, t'other will wither.

Don Quixote. It's a massive undertaking, but it's made me laugh out loud a number of times.

Last week I read Funnymen by Ted Heller, a fictional biography of a comedy duo loosely based on Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis, and Force Majeur by Bruce Wagner, who writes black comedies about Hollywood. I've now read all of Wagner. He's great - mercilessly unpleasant.
I'm reading Butterfly Stories by William T. Vollman now. I never warmed to Vollman, though I read a lot of stuff in this vein. I guess this is his most accessible book. He puts out pounds of prose every year so I doubt I could ever read all of him.

I'm reading Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches cycle. Not classical literature, but something to keep you occupied when you're on the john or on a cig break.

Give it a chance, it's a good read from front to back.
