Rereading #LoisMcmasterBujold's Gentleman Joel & the Red Queen, & this line made me snort-laugh:

"Joel wasn't sure of the advisability of introducing a keen young officer to Vorkosigan notions of initiative. Metaphors about fighting fire with gasoline rose to his mind."

...it would probably be wrong to wish we had some Vorkosigans to deploy here in our present situation....

#Paperjale Asko gustatzen zait Paperjalek egiten duen laburpentxoa. Aurten, #Dune-rekin bukatu eta #LoisMcMasterBujold ezagutu dut, eta egian esan #Vorkosigan sagak guztiz harrapaturik bukatu dut urtea. Komiki onak egon dira tartean, eta baita lagun batzuen eleberriak ere @adurjokoa. Datorren urterako ea euskaraz gehiago irakurtzea lortzen dudan!

Ondo bukatu urtea eta ondo pasa egun hauetan #Fedibertsoa! :)
