Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk,

You've received a bonus from Randall Walsh for work related to 3RIHDBQ1NEX4V1ECDKJRF49SFQOHM9.
The value of your bonus is: $8.00 USD

The Requester included this note:
A greater number of people from Group B participated than from Group A.

Thank you for partaking in this HIT.

This was that super tedious slider decision task HIT posted last night. It was $2 for about 25 minutes so not really worth it except for the bonus.

At the risk of being that guy who is always last to stop using a meme, but here is the next best light and fun book (after princess bride). I highly recommend The Warrior's Apprentice by Lois McMaster Bujold. Its SF, but it has the best character development I have ever read. Miles Vorkosigan is an awesome character with flaws, brilliance, insecurities, bravado, confidence, and ostracizing impairment, a powerful family. etc. All of the various character traits are well developed and all together make a reckless Hero you can't help but love

Here is the first 5 chapters. http://www.baen.com/Chapters/067172066X/067172066X.htm

I'm not, I don't like joking around. There's a lot of serious things in this world to be buying a one-way ticket on the Comedy Train straight to Chuckletown.
Earth Abides is another uplifting end of the world story then. Since you're into that kind of thing.

I'm actually giving my first CSATS fail (other than a couple that had to cut cloth) Can't believe this person is inside another human being with robot claws and sharp things....
