Badass read.

Just finished Lucifers Hammer, giant comet eradicates population, leaves feudal communities vying for independence. It was ok...

How in the hell do you all have time to read???

[speelyei]

skip sex

[fossilgrom]

I wish I could say that would free up some time - but not in my case.

By the time I have settled down enough to read (or have sex) I'm usually too drunk.

Honestly I can't remember the last book I read for pleasure - very sad. I'm slowly slipping into illiteracy - the poster child for the "dumbing down" of America.

Between crossword sudoku surfing checking the surf and sex I find little time for much else including punctuation

I am a really fast reader...
Which irritates my wife who isn't...
I can also follow sporting events on TV...
While having sex...
This also seemed to irritate my wife...
So the TV is generally off...
At these times.

a lot of great reads out there, you find the book, you find the time.

World War Z. It was much better than I was expecting. Obviously a thinly veiled commentary on the state of world affairs. Fast read, perfect bathroom book.

The Devils Sandbox.

subscribed to National Geographic... I'm surprised how they've kept up their good name with mind blowing pictorals and stories..

Just finished Matterhorn.
the type of war novel that is too real. Wars are fucked!

Winter's Bone.
Is written spare like a slightly filled in screenplay. I love vernacular stories of the modern rural south, meth teeth and all. Much like growing up in the coast range, but replace the snow with rain and mud.
I'll likely see the movie.

Just finished "Hitler's Holy Relics' by Sydney Kirkpatrick. Sounds fictional, but a true story. Still trying to get thru "Anne Rands "Atlas Shrugged and "TheForgotten Man" by Amity Shlaes. Lost my reading glasses awhile back though. Need to go to the eye Doc Occasionally read a chapter or two in "Playing Blackjack To Win by a six Blackjack Hall of Famers. Misc. Surf and Powertool rags from time to time. Looking forward to reading "Dr. Mary's Monkeys"

finished "the long walk", billed as true but a work of fiction, follows a supposed escape from a Gulag and overland escape on foot through the Gobi desert. Good read.

Also read a book about some abortion clinic bomber who evaded the authorities, set off a bomb at the Olympics, and was arrested after the largest manhunt in US history failed to track him down. Any more elaboration would simply glorify a trivial individual. Don't bother.

Reading "fight the wild", true story of an Australian cowboy who gets stuck in the outback for months, dodges crocs & stuff with his dogs and an aluminum boat.
