JACK REACHER

Lee Child created the Jack Reacher character around ten years ago and has published approximately ten stories with Reacher as the focal point.

If you simply want to read something that takes your mind off of everything and allows you to relax in a conformable version of the Alpha state...then I highly suggest going to your local library and start from the beginning of the series.

It harkens back to a time in the early part of the last century when the creation of fictional hero's was just starting, which in turn led to the creation of COMIC BOOK superheroes which in turn leads me to the sad premise of...

IS IT POSSIBLE TO CREATE A NEW COMIC BOOK SUPER HERO?

Have you been to a comic book store lately? I think it's rather sad to contemplate that it might be impossible to create a new SH. If I was a young artist who was interested in creating that genre I might be very very depressed.

On the other hand how interesting to have been a comic book artist in the 40's and 50's?

WOW...SO MANY IDEAS AND CHARACTERS TO BE DEVELOPED OVER THE NEXT 50 YEARS.

On the other hand I think one can create a RHSH

REAL HUMAN SUPER HERO

by simply writing a book or making a movie.

There will never be an abundance of REAL human super heroes.

Lee Child has created a man (Reacher) we might not want to be but we most definitely want to know and more importantly the man that we can call if we need help dealing with the assholes of the world.

I guess in real life, of which I appear to be involved for some ungodly reason, there just aren't people that can take care of the dirty work without a lot of dirt being spread.

The ACLU would not like Jack Reacher but they would call him if their organization was being threatened by a death squad of tribal rivals looking to eliminate ACLU personel in a violent manner.

SOUNDS LIKE A STORY MR. CHILD

Highly recommend you pick up the series of Reacher novels and relax on your next vacation.

Better yet pick it up now and pretend like you are on vacation

VACATION NOVELS ARE OFTEN BEST DURING TIMES OF NORMAL STRESSFUL LIVING SITUATIONS.

GIVE YOURSELF A BREAK AND DO SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T DO ANYTHING EXCEPT ACTIVATE THE UNIQUE ALPHA STATE THAT CAN ONLY BE ACTIVATED THROUGH THE ART OF READING

It's a hoot

You can always read Plato or Kierkegaard afterwards if you want to bring your mind back to jumbalayaville
