Love Sam Bee, she's one of the funniest chicks on TV.

I know I mentioned this before, but I'll say it again because its anew board. I read Where Men Win Glory, the book about Pat Tillman, it is a must read.

Tap do you remember the book we discussed in chat? i can't remember, and i searched for it in my piles here.
[sad]

it was something about the web.

AM RE-READING "The Four Agreements" with my kids(some of it). am going to start a thread.

Reading three plays: If, the adaptation of Dracula, and Elmer Rice's Street Scene (VERY good).

Just finished "The Gift of Fear" by Gavin de Becker

Earthy, sorry, but at the moment it escapes me, I will probe my retarded brain for you....

thanks Tap. and no you're not retarded, you've just had booze since then.

a must read if you have babies, are a teacher, or deal with children:

I’m currently reading “The Grand Jihad” by Andrew McCarthy.

Over the last couple of months I’ve read “The End of the Free Market” by Ian Bremmer; “Cracking the Code: by Thom Hartman; “Because They Hate” by Brigitte Gabriel; “Son of Hamas” by Mosab Hassan Yousef; “Courting Disaster” by Marc Thiessen.

Next up is “The God Who Hates” by Wafa Sultan.

"The Fox in the Hen House" by Si Kahn

Here's what Ed Hightower has to say about it...

I plow through fiction, largely of the same mystery/thriller or international intrigue genres, and just finished the first Stephen King I've read in 25 years - "Under the Dome." I've just never much liked him, nor the horror genre. I quite liked it. But I have to confess that the book was personally quite flattering. That is, it's a blatant homage to several authors - chiefly Lee Childs and Michael Connelly - really COUNTLESS inside references to both, and since I'm a rabid fan of both, the book made me feel like quite an insider.

In part of June and thus far in July I've read:

John Sanford
Storm Prey

Robert Crais
The First Rule

Ted Dekker
Bride Collector

David Baldacci
Deliver Us From Evil

Scott Turow
Innocent

Greg Iles
Mortal Fear

Richard North Patterson
In the Name of Honor

Stephen King
Under the Dome

Lee Child
61 Hours

Harlan Coben
Caught

Robert Parker
Split Image

Stieg Larsson
The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo

Stieg Larrson
The Girl Who Played With Fire

I'm sort of freaking because I have only 3 unread left on my shelf:

Janet Evanovich
Sizzling Sixteen

Jeffery Deaver
Burning Wire

Stieg Larrson
The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets nest

...and then all my favorites are out of new titles for a few months. (And Larrson and Parker are gonna wait a LOT longer than that.)

I have to read every night at a minimum, and so this means next week I'll run out of fave authors and I'll have to hit the mystery fiction shelves at the library and find ANY author I've never read before who has a minimum of 5 books on the shelf.

I check them all out and read them through in chronological order. Last author I found this way and liked a lot was Peter Deutermann. Some interesting similarities with Lee Child, though Deutermann wrote most of his years before the Jack Reacher character was created.

you might want to try robert b. parker or james patterson then. if you like all of the authors above.

michael connelly even.
