I might need to check that out.


If you like the RHCP, it is fascinating. It's amazing he is still alive. I had no idea.

The Sun Also Rises - Hemingway

Last read maybe 10 years ago and loved it.  A little less fun than I remember, but I'm only 1/3 through so far.

From what I understand, you are not only not late, but maybe a little too early.  I mean, he isn't going to finish the series for years and years, so the later you start the less you will be part of the crowd of people frustratingly waiting for the next novel to come out.

Service bulletins and instructions for a 70s model Vane 1700 diagnostic/analysis station for autos. It's been hardly used and gathering dust in a closed gas station workshop. It has a pipe sniffer, oscilloscope, etc. A mate got one at auction and is giving it to me on permanent loan. Very cool (and funny) reading the 70s literature.

The Bleed by John Cronin. Pretty good, so far and I just started.

The Big Sleep- by Raymond Chandler, 1939 detective novel. A pretty good read and a bit racy for it's time.

Chandler is always a fun read.

Just finished Endurance by Alfred Lansing.  It's the story of Sir Ernest Shacklenton's failed attempt to reach the south pole in 1914.  Unbelievable story. :o :o  I couldn't put it down.  We are all puny men in comparison.
