As I mentioned to Debi, I'm only on page 212 (out of 766). It's very compelling and I'm constantly trying to find time to read/listen more, but it is one HUGE book!<br /><br />Huskers made up for last weekend with yesterday's win over Arkansas State. Martinez is playing much better than he did last year, but our defense is still a bit weak.Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-79292295973465670682012-09-16T12:22:04.151-07:002012-09-16T12:22:04.151-07:00Oooh, I like your way of thinking.

There are 766 pages in all. I'll be lucky if I finish before Halloween!

And I agree with Debi, everyone should get double points for chunksters!!! <br /><br />And of course I love popping over here and see the big red N, despite the Huskers' frustrating loss last weekend.
