Fields of Fire and the Frontlines series
Marko Kloos is about to release the latest in his Frontlines series - Fields of Fire (Book 5). I can't get his books for free at library, so I will shell out the $5 on Amazon for it. If you've not read the others, he's got them on sale for a dollar each. Obviously, he's trying to get you hooked, so you'll spend the big bucks like me.

Joke of the Year
I know it's early, but as a follow-up to yesterday's post about addressing your Amazon Echo as "Computer," I cracked up reading this fantastic comment:
Hey, now you can just say "computer" to give your @amazonecho a command. Does that mean it's Enterprise-ready? https://t.co/R43Hv8Z6bY pic.twitter.com/30S93cC24B— Gomix (@gomixme) January 24, 2017

Computer
I've been toying with the idea of buying an Amazon Echo.
They've made the wake word configurable, so you can say "computer" and Alexa will respond.
I'm definitely going to order one now.
For those that don't get the reference (the fun starts around the 1 minute mark):
