Mine.

Titled "The Oil Spill" by Paul Davis. It's a corporate thriller with oil as the centerpiece. It's a kindle e-book. You don't need a kindle to read it if you don't have one, just a kindle app and there are kindle apps for pretty much every electronic device--mac, windows, android devices, ipads, iphones etc. The app is free, the book is $2.60 (cheap!). You'd be supporting a very noble cause by getting and reading this book, mainly money to lift me out of renters hell with noisy neighbors.

Check it out if that sort of novel interests you. If you do, I hope you enjoy it.

Is a devastating oil spill the deathknell for an oil giant? One would think so, especially when combined with all the sins previously committed by Texas based Premier Petroleum, American's largest energy company. A few weeks later, Premier's fate is all but confirmed with the discovery of CEO Percy Morrow's body near his Manhattan condo. No doubt a suicide, the only way he can escape the waves of venom directed at him over the spill. The only disbeliever is spokesman Chuck Howe, one of the few within Premier who still believes in the company. In his fight to save both Premier and Morrow's ruined name, Howe tries to keep the suicide private. But other issues complicate his task. He's still grieving from the recent death of his wife. Disturbing leaks to the press continue to occur. And a powerful board director abruptly announces his retirement, short-circuiting the expected succession plans. All that pales, however, when Camilla Bentz, a fierce enemy of Premier, arrives out of nowhere as the new CEO.

sounds like an interesting read..

does this story involve an underrated dwarf who will never win the approval of his war general father, despite his wit, bravery, and charm...

...or a bastard son who leaves his world behind to join a group of brothers sworn to protect the realm...

????

If not, sorry, but I don't have time for it right now...

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
