It's Friday! Any deals on the various internet sites that are worth talking about? Join in this discussion and perhaps learn something along the way. Warning: don't proceed if you have thin skin but don't be afraid to post either... And welcome aboard!

I've been busy but apparently so has everyone else... And not busy bantering.

Got some chicken on the grill and ready to chow down shortly.
Didn't have any after-school activities to wait around for today, so I did some OT when I got back, then a lot of reading throughout the evening. I've been plowing through book 2 of the Wheel of Time series. New episodes are currently airing on Prime and this season covers books 2 and 3, so I was trying to get through them as the season unfolds. Finished book 2 this evening, so I'll start book 3 tomorrow. Just rereading, as I've already been through the series a couple of times.
Not familiar with this series.

Rereading...my, you have some time on your hands!

Good series, but terribly verbose.
More than 4 million words in the 14 book series.
Jordan died before it was finished.  Brandon Sanderson finished it based on Jordan's notes (and added a prequil if that wasn't enough)

He certainly knows how to paint a picture, I'll give you that.

Today would have been my old man's 97th birthday. He's been gone almost 10 years. Hoping he continues to rest in peace.

The wife took today off from work. Her cousin came in from Florida last night. I think they're heading into Manhattan for the day. I just need them out of my "hair" so I can get stuff done. I have another interview at noon.

Sounds like fun for them, less so for you.
