A novel to check out

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...

    • Yup. Hopefully  Brandon adds some muscle this off-season but he'll probably be resting his shoulder for a while so I doubt it. Miles should probably be replaced but I don't think we find a better 4th option to be honest. So is it better to add depth along side williams and Coby or try to upgrade the 4/5 . I think adding depth will probably be more beneficial than trying to upgrade starters and bank on Brandon and Kons continuing development. I really don't think they are going to make the playoffs unfortunately. I think the big hole they put themselves in has exhausted them. They've been amazing since January 1 but I think it's come at a cost and their legs are gone. 
    • The issue is the predictability of it all in a Bryce Young led offense. In 4th down attempts the Jets were at 41 and we were at 40. And we were 4th in conversation %. We were 25th in the league in 3rd down conversion because we faced so many 3rd and longs in part due to playcalling on 1st and 2nd down but more largely due to the limitations that cannot be overcome.  And people want us to spend another 1st rounder on WR as if it is going to magically give Bryce physical talent he will never possess. It's a shame we cut off our own nose just to put ourselves in this frustrating predicament.
