Three Men in a Boat (To say Nothing of the Dog) by Jerome K. Jerome. Brilliant book.

Dune

It's a little embarrassing. I feel like I should be listing to TOTO.

This sounds pretty fuckin' cool. Where'd ya get it?

I just got a copy of The Lexicon Devil for Christmas. Planning on starting it today. Recently finished up Chomsky's Post-9/11 discussion book. I forgot the exact title- something about Terror and such. I've also been reading a pretty damn interesting book off and on called The End of Faith by Sam Harris. Not entirely sure how valid the author is, but it's interesting nonetheless. Last fiction I read was Johnny Got His Gun. Any of you read it? Fucking incredible. Never had a book hit me as hard as that. Intense ass shit.

this shitty book i borrowed from a co-worker a week or two before she fired me.

guess who's not getting this book back. and might just find it in the used book store.

I'm about half-way through Ulysses and needed a break, so I just picked up the only book on my shelf I haven't read yet (well, only fiction anyway): Mosquito Coast by Paul Theroux. I started it and never finished for some reason. Oh, so nice, reading something intelligible.

You Did What? by I forget who. Great history blunders. Quite amusing.

"Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom" by Cory Doctorow, "The Heaven Virus" by Clifford Pickover and "Creem: America's Only Rock n Roll Magazine", a great Creem compilation hardback.

All gotten for Christmas from my wife who must love me very much.

Shakey, Neil Young's biography, Wonderful Tonight, Pattie Boyd's George and Eric book, and The White Book by Ken Mansfield. He ran Apple for the Beatles in the U.S.

Yup, getting books for Christmas rules.

How is it?

Just finished The Acid House, a collection of short stories by Irvine Welsh, which I enjoyed a lot more than I thought I would. Finally got around to Our Band Could Be Your Life, reading that an a biography on Wernher Von Braun, and re-reading Ulysses and Gravity's Rainbow as time permits.
