The Glossary

I’m starting a Glossary here in the Garage. I’ve decided to break it up into real world; where I’m going to pull words from all the reference reading I’m doing, and Palomar City, where I’m going to plug in some definitions for in-world items you might come across on the blog. This will hopefully find it’s way into a wiki in the near future.

In conjunction with the Glossary, I’m going to start a Reading List. I read about one book a year, and usually only half of it. So don’t worry, that list is not going to be too intense.

Here are the first two entries in the Reading List.

Maximum City: Bombay Lost and Found

Shadow Cities: A Billion Squatters, A New Urban World

Currently Listening To: Algodón Egipicio “El Ingenio Humano”
