Oblivion

I promised a review of Peter Abrahams's Oblivion. Good, but the last two hundred pages aren't as good as the first hundred. The ending is pretty well telegraphed. I guessed some of the supporting details wrong, but the perp was pretty clear.

Ran into a neighbor on the street today walking to train to plane to Tampa for a conference on "Loving as Jesus loved." Trying to think up Christian alternatives to sex, drugs, and rock and roll, which we used to refer to as high school. It will be interesting to hear what they come up with. It will be interesting to see where I come down on this stuff when Natalie is 14, or 11, which they say is the new 14.

Think about it, if 50 is the new 40 and 11 is the new 14, where in middle is there the year which is the same as it was back in the day. 33?
