Zen The Art Of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert M Prisigs.

Got the new L.K. Rowling book as a gift. The Casual Vacancy is her first non Harry Potter book and her first for adults.

Will start it this week.

Very interesting. Let me know when you go insane.  

I'm reading  Zero Day by Mark Russinovich

It's about Hackers infecting the worlds systems with really nasty malware and ruining everything for everybody.


BTW green eggs and ham is a good book. It's on my must read sometime in life list. 

I'm reading Herb Cohen's Negotiate this by caring but not that much ... less then 100 pages to go. After I finish it, I'll start reading Glen Heggstad's "Two Wheels through terror".

I'm reading Twist of the Wrist II by Keith Code, read the part I few weeks ago.
I can easilly recommend to anyone moving on 2 wheels...

Believe me....half way through I thought I was.....It kept me up at night. It gets more sane the more you read. Worth the read

Just started The Finish


Cannot even make it through the first chapter.  I want my money back!

Bowden didn't write this book.  Instead of flushing his toilet paper, he sent it to his publisher for this one.

Some things just aren't worth reading. find something else.

I really like Bowden's books. Maybe he was stoned when he wrote it

Just finished Caleb Carr's "The Alienist." Highly entertaining historical fiction about the hunt for a serial killer in 1890's New York. If you like murder mysteries or psychological thrillers, you'll enjoy it.

Started on "The Name Of The Wind" by Patrick Rothfuss. It's historical fantasy fiction (knights, wizards, etc) which isn't typically my favorite genre, but it's got an interesting premise and comes highly recommended by people whose opinion I trust.

His other books are great.  Well researched, well written. This one...

By Stephen Ambrose and Thomas Childers. That's one of Ambrose's many works which include plagiarized material.

Tell me more, I'm unfamiliar.

Just finished Unbroken.

Great book, but damn...amazing what those guys went through!

That book was....just wow. As you said amazing. And what's even more amazing is many of these guys including Zamporini were able to forgive their captors.

Just got done with. "the dog stars" by Peter Heller. I hope he writes a sequel.

What's the story line about?




I'm reading this interesting article from scientific American. The cover photo warrants some study.
