Spurs beat Pistons

San Antonio Spurs are the champs beating the Detroit Pistons in game 7. Being from Dallas,TX I would have liked to see the Mavericks win, but I’ll take the Spurs also(both from Texas). Since I’m going to be surrounded by Poston fans tomorrow, I’ll be sure to be a proud, vocal Texan.

“Survivor” by Chuck Palahniuk

Last night I finished reading “Survivor” by Chuck Palahniuk. First off, Palahniuk is very dark so if that sort of thing bothers you, this is not for you. This book is about a man who has spent most of his life in a religious suicide cult. The book really doesn’t go too much into his life while he was there, but deals more with his struggle after he leaves for the outside world (part of his dilemma is after he leaves they commit suicide). As dark as this sounds Palahniuk has actually made this a pretty funny book with great characters. As you get further into the book you realize that this could be a satire on today’s main-stream media and organized popular religion way of life. I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys dark humor and does not get offended easily by satire (especially when directed towards Christianity). If you can look past that, you will be on the floor laughing.
