The memes of avalon
Stolen verbatim from Jenna.
This is a list of the 50 most significant science fiction/fantasy novels, 1953-2002, according to the Science Fiction Book Club.
Bold the ones you’ve read, strike-out the ones you hated, italicize those you started but never finished and put an asterisk beside the ones you loved.

That’s soil, folks!
I just heard a person on the radio mention that he was standing on “American soil”, and it got me to wondering……..
Suppose I have a pickup truck loaded with dirt, or “Good ol’ American soil.” I then drive this truck into Canada, where I dump the entire load. Is it then “Canadian soil”, or is [...]
The duck that still wouldn’t die…….
I first posted about it here……

Several may have spoken what they were typing while they typed it, in which case they have spoken, I just couldn’t hear them. But they spoke nonetheless. Anyway, when [...]
Trolling the Underground
For the newbies: Trolling the underground is a formerly regular feature that has been sidelined since my home computer died. I still don’t have a new one, but I have cobbled this entry together over a few weeks and with the help of my friends. It will be regular again, but not until I get a [...]
your opinion, please
As many of you know, this wasn’t the first “Under the Bridge” site. I liked the first one just fine, until it started having problems actually posting poasts, and your comments. When I’d had enough, I switched here.
This has been fine from a utilitarian standpoint, and it DOES give me the thing that does this, [...]
