What is everone reading ?

“Pavlov's Trout
by Paul Quinnet

He's a WA state psychologist that tackles his science from a fisherpersons perspective. Funny and informative.”

“The library here has two large tables spilling over with used books ranging from 25 cents to a buck apiece. I suspect I'll leave with a couple more additions to my growing library.”

“Cool Beans gojo!

I'm reading Ragamuffin Gospel by Brennan Manning...a must read!!”

“A collection of short stories and excerpts from books by Southern Authors. I have been very impressed with the work of some I had not read before.”

“I just finished "Team of Rivals" by Doris Kearns Goodwin. I highly recommend it. It's about Lincoln, and especially his genius for putting together a politically diverse cabinet and making it work.
Now I'm onto "Grant" by James McPheely. I guess I'm in a bit of a rut, but it's good reading.

AND....If you haven't read "The Worst Hard Time" by Timothy Eegan, you had better get a copy. A great book.”

“at the moment this remarkable forum”

“I'm still working on Crusade in Europe by Eisenhower. I've really enjoyed it. I didn't realize that Ireland was neutral during WWII but that Northern Ireland was an Allie (that spelling looks weird).”

“yeah, Southern authors are great, especially ones in southeastern north carolina”

“DH, if you haven't read Omar Bradley, biography, I highly recommend it. He gives a straight forward and very frank discussion of the leadership in the European theater.”

“Just finished a season on the AT. :)”

“DH, Chili -
Winston Churchill's four(?) volume set is cool. I've read a couple of them (I have three).”

“"the diamond age: a young lady's illustrated primer"

nano-tech sci-fi”

“That would be interesting gojo. Eisenhower has talked a good bit about his debates and disagreements in planning with Churchill. He said that Churchill realized that Eisenhower generally liked him and would use that against him. He would debate whatever issue they disagreed on practically until whatever engagement started then would change tune and fully support whatever decision was made and was completely on board. That's pretty impressive. Egos tend to get in the way and all too frequently in life the diagreer is also a pain during the actual implementation of an project.”

“diagreer?”

“You know engineers can't write worth a crap.”

“I'm reading a book called "America Jane's
Pearls of Wisdom, A Handbook for Constructive Living"
It has instructions that are great lessons for young and old alike on being successful by applying tried and true attributes and character traits. Really good stuff.
A Lt. Colonel who was a commander in Viet Nam, who is a member of my congregation let me borrow his. He is trying to get me four copies for myself to give to my son and gf, and a couple other folks. I may even design a youth study format from it for the kids in the church.”

“Lost Mountain by Erik Reece.

A very good book about Mountain Top Removal.”

“Thats cool. I'll pick that up. I've always wanted to do that.”

“Right now I'm reading The Miraculous World of Your Unborn Baby. It's very cool, I've learned about a million things I never knew before. Oh and they said there was this experiment where 26 pregnant ladies who hadn't been told the sex of their baby were hypnotized, and 25 of them correctly said which sex they were having!”

“something you want to tell us?

hense the shot gun wedding???”

“no drinking and reading this kind of book

you are preggers right?”

“is there a thread for "what type of vitamins are you taking"?”

“A book about the history of the oak tree.

Yes, I'm a geek. :)”

“Folic acid for 2!”

“LOL @ dayhiker!”

“Those vitamins are nasty. My wife disolved one in water one time to see if it might make it more tolerable. It made it worse, if that's possible.”

“Actually vitamins have never bothered me, I really don't mind taking them! Thank goodness. I've heard they make some people puke.”

“They're mutant vitamins. They made my wife puke a time or two. Regular ones while not pregnant are no biggie.”

“di, I think Ive read that book!”

“No I mean the prenatals don't bother me either...I have to take 3 per day, too!”

“I knew what you meant. Those things even smell nasty.”

“christ people, this is a book thread not a health page.”

“I knew what you meant. Those things even smell nasty.”
dayhiker


It's the extra iron and B vitamins.”

“I don't need no stinking hypnotism to tell which sex I'm having... usually.

Perhaps there's a book that could help.”

“How about a magazine?”

“I ran by the library at lunch (just kinda to kill time) and this book in the new non-fiction section caught my eye.

The Wild Trees
by Richard Preston

Has anyone read it?”

“hmmmmmm,”

“How did I know you would zooooom in on this post Hyway! I started to put that you were not allowed to comment ;-)”

“The Fountainhead
by Ayn Rand.

It's required reading in my profession.”

“I just finished "Watership Down" by Richard Adams. I am stunned that I have let such a great work go unread for so long. I thought it was just a children's story. My how wrong can one man be. I was reviewing a Denver Book Club site that has been reading and rating SF books since 1994 (or earlier). While most of the books had a range of ratings from 0-10, thus showing that the group was varied in their interests, Watership Down had 9's and 10's from every group member.

Like them, I highly recommend reading this book if you haven't done so already.”

“"Watership Down

Like them, I highly recommend reading this book if you haven't done so already.”

I`ve read the book three times now,well worth the read.There are not to many authors of that caliber around anymore.

Just finished Munity on the Bounty,another great read and a classic.

Next project is some light reading,it`s abook called "The Priest" it`s about the future building of the Temple on the temple Mount in Jerusalem,quite interesting.”

“Ditto on Watership Down.

I'm rereading The Grass Crown, the second historical novel in Colleen McCullough's Masters of Rome series.”

“I'm about 7 or 8 chapters into "A Walk In The Woods" funny stuff. Thank Windigrrl for loaning it to me!”

“Lone Survivor by Marcus Luttrell”

“read a few more chapters then stop reading. That way you will think its one of the funniest books you've ever read.”

“i assume youre talking about a walk in the woods, and not lone survivor, hyway?”

“true, I wonder why I didn't see stickman's post.”

“"Postcards From Ed"; a collection of postcards by Ed Abbey. Also Lactate Threshold Training by Peter Jannsen and AAFP home study monograph on Stroke.”

“part one of "a walk" was hilarious and hugely entertaining, if a bit condescending

i dont remember much of watership down, other than i enjoyed it thoroughly

just finished "the diamond age: a young lady's illustrated primer" by neal stephenson. post cyberpunk novel. nanotech”

“Another good book along the same lines as "Watership Down" is "Tailchasers' Song."”
