    Although, it's cool that even though you don't know how to read the damn thing, you can still understand what it means. Take that English language!

    I've done the same thing with English words numerous times, and understanding what people are saying when they don't know how to say a word uses the same tricks so I've done it more still. It's not really unique to Japanese.

    I can't do it very well with English. And it's not spoken, it's written. Spoken Japanese is a whole other ballpark sometimes...

    Doesn't matter whether it's spoken or written, if someone says/writes "quadriplegics are animals that walk on four legs" you know what word they meant to use. If you're reading a fucked up document and you only get three letters out of one word you can tell between context and those first three letters what word was probably next with reasonable accuracy.

    Except you're using context to figure it out. I'm talking about understanding a word from the parts itself. Using your example, it'd be like figuring out "quadriplegics" from "quadri" and "plegics".

    Can't say I'd wholeheartedly recommend them but that guy is a master of the plot non-twist. Like a whole book is pointing directly at some obvious outcome so that you have to assume there will some big twist at the end then there isn't. It's been exactly what you thought the whole time.

    But he takes that style so far it almost becomes good. Almost.

    Feral there's some decently written sci-fi books(for sci-fi) in the 40k universe if you give a shit.

    But I haven't read a sci-fi book since 9th grade, so I have no real frame of reference.

    The most recent Sci-Fi book I read, which I just finishes this morning in fact, was "Stranger From a Strange Land" and it was an awesome book, I had never heard of Heinlen until last Monday when I bought this book from the half priced book store.

    Don't tell me you liked the last 1/4 of that book?

    That was when Heinlein went to shit. Most great sci-fi authors do eventually. Look at Asimov. But Heinlein actually underwent the metamorphosis in the middle of a book that started out so well.

    I enjoyed that book from beginning to end, and it was the uncut version, with over 6,000 more words in it or something like that.

    I can see how the end was not as great as the rest of the book, but I still enjoyed it.

    I have no idea who Asimov is, for I just started to read sci-fi books when I bought this one last week, and this is my first book that I have read that isn't Anne Rice or a Harry Potter book, I did read a few Steinbeck books too though, he is great.

    I am looking to start reading more, for I find that I immensely enjoy it. Does anyone have any ideas on what good sci-fi's are out there or what other books by Heinlen are as good as Stranger from a Strange Land?

    Red Planet is Heinlein at his best in terms of SciFi. The book Starship Troopers is well worth a read. Especially if you've seen the movie. (But if you liked the movie... well its worth ready anyway).

    Asimov wrote hundreds of books on every subject ever. When he was younger this included a ton of good sci-fi books (eg: the Robot series or the Foundation books) but then he took a 20 year break from the genre and when he came back just didn't have the touch.

    I think probably the best pure sci-fi author of the 20th century was Poul Anderson. Good starting points for his stuff: Trader to the Stars or The Earth Book of Stormgate. One caveat: despite being such a badass of science fiction his book have the worst cover art ever.

    Oh wow you're new to this.
    Zenan Bridge - 600 A.D.

    When you arrive here, talk to the knight in gold, and he'll ask you if the
    food that they need has arrived from Guardia Castle yet. After you talk to the
    knight in gold, exit the Zenan Bridge by heading east.


    Overworld - 600 A.D.

    Here, head northeast, then north and enter Guardia Forest.


    Guardia Forest - 600 A.D.

    Once you arrive here, simply make your way through the forest.


    Overworld - 600 A.D.

    Once you are on the overworld screen yet AGAIN, head north, then enter Guardia
    Castle, which you'll be in for a little more than two seconds this time.


    Guardia Castle - 600 A.D.

    Once you arrive here, the guards will stop you from entering at first, but
    then they'll realize who it is and let you into the castle. Once you are able
    to enter the castle, head east and then all the way north and go down the
    stairs there, into the next room. In this room, head south and into the actual
    room. Once you enter the actual room, head west and southeast, and you'll see
    three girls, followed by a chef. Talk to the chef, then he and one of the
    girls will argue a bit, then you'll regain control. When you do, head west and
    north from the area with the girls and the chef, then head east and northeast
    and go up the stairs into the previous room. Back in this room, head south and
    then west, towards the entrance of the castle. On your way to the entrance,
    the chef will stop you and give you some Jerky for the people starving on
    Zenan Bridge. He'll also give you a Power Tab. After that, he'll leave and go
    back to the kitchen, then you'll regain control. When you regain control, head
    west and towards the entrance of the castle like you were originally going to
    before the chef stopped you. When you reach the entrance of the castle, exit
    it.


    Overworld - 600 A.D.

    Back on the overworld again, head south and enter Guardia Forest.


    Guardia Forest - 600 A.D.

    Here, go through the forest exit on the other end.


    Overworld - 600 A.D.

    Back on the overworld, head southwest, then all the way south towards Zenan
    Bridge once again. Save your game before entering it this time, though, as you
    will have to fight there this time.


    Zenan Bridge - 600 A.D.

    Back on Zenan Bridge, talk to the knight in gold and tell him that the Jerky
    is for him and his men.

    And F-Zero dots.

    But man I love my wii. Fuck da haterz.

Bloom is fine with being subservient to his beautiful wife, both fetishizes her and operates in the defetishized-zones of their relationship, and can appreciate her in all the ways that Steven finds himself unable.
