Honestly, I went to a small sling backpack to get everything out of my pockets. It gets uncomfortable, but I didn't realize it because I was putting everything in my pockets for so long. Sitting with one side higher because of my wallet in my back pocket, and a big bulky phone shoved against my thigh, etc. Now I have a belt case for my phone and everything else in my bag, and jeans have never been more comfortable.

I've solved this problem by simply being scheduled 7 days a week for the rest of eternity.

I must be combining scenes, but I distinctly remember one where it was made a point that he was naked at a point.

My 4th grade teacher read a chapter to the class every day, same with the sequel. I specifically remember the part where he was standing outside naked in winter and some tree bark just kinda exploded, and he was freaking out trying to decide if the freezing bark caused it to expand and explode or if a hunter was out there shooting bullets at him. Also, the part where he finds an orange-drink packet in the survival supplies of the plane and describes the taste of it.

Edit: I think the tree bark part was in the sequel, Brian's Winter.

Some people don't have the knowledge or confidence to build a PC or go through the process of installing everything to run games like a pro PC gamer, and for them, the do-it-for-me approach of console gaming is the best route. With the upcoming generation of iPad kids, I feel like console gaming is going to be bigger than ever.

Disclaimer: I'm a PC gamer almost exclusively.

"It's sterile, and they like the taste."

It's almost as if being publicly traded is bad for the stability and longevity of a company. Who would have thought?

Governments should not be measured in "value" of any financial aspect, but rather the quality of living of the citizens they govern. Electing a leader of questionable human rights morals would be a disaster.

Saga of Tanya the Evil

Uhh, the main character is technically a child, even though they >!have the mind and soul of a middle-aged man!<. I'm not sure I'd include this, but the other characters still work.
