Which Heinlein Book Should You Have Been A Character In?
brought to you by Quizilla


Eeugh! that's a nasty comment. I should maybe read that book - I have no idea what it's about.

I went to the Stromhold baronial meeting tonight - what a waste of my time! There they all were, discussing a new rub on the issue I resolved for them months ago! the meeting can't pay its way, even with this energy put into it - it should be disbanded, like we decided 3 months ago.

They're going to ask the church if they can have reduced rent and otherwise they'll move to a meeting room at Melb Uni.

That swimming pool problem I had last week - my first assertion was correct - I am an idiot. the reason I had so much trouble with it... I multiplied by 3.6 instead of dividing by 3.6. This meant I was wrong and now I have to work out what to say when the architect asks why the ducts are now 1/3 the size I originally told him. hmmm.

...nope.. there's no more - I'm going to bed

The book is about a dirty old man, who happens to be rich enough that when he is dying his brain gets transplanted into the body of his nubile young secretary (who he has lusted after). But the consciousness of the former owner of the body re-emerges and has conversations with him. Then it gets stranger because he goes and gets his new body impregnated with a semen sample that his old body had stashed away. Then his new body (which already has two minds in it) is bonking some guy who has a heart attack and dies, and his mind moves into the new bod as well.

And then I forget what happens.

I was never certain whether this book was supposed to be a real novel, or whether it was supposed to be very amusing trash.

Um.. we are talking Heinlein here, he is the past master of the amusing trash! (I have to say that I have read this book several times here) This may say bad things about me but there you go. I am fond of Heinlein even at his trashyest! MrsBrown, I can lend you the book if you want to read it. Some social prediction (dated) some romping, some sex, not much thought required!
