Earlier today I was searching the web to find Descartes' 6 meditations but all I found was websites trying to sell a book including them. Then it dawned on me, why would I want to read something from a French guy. Besides what kind of respect can one have for a philosopher that condemned Galileo. I mean a philosopher is supposed to look beyond and see what is accurate not just stick to the status quo to stay popular.
Anyway two great books I would seriously recommend are, "See I told you so" or "The way things ought to be" both by Rush Limbaugh, excellent books.
If I could make a wish, I think I'd pass.

Hey Laurel,

I'm like that sometimes. Depends on my mood ~ some books I will attack and read w/in a day, some books will sit on my coffee table for six months before they are finished.

Another book (a gift from our company to all employees) I enjoyed reading was The Alchemist, by Paulo Coelho. Very easy reading, but inspiring. g

The Fatal Shore. About the first convicts sent to Australia and how they made Australia. Pretty good so far.

I just finished My Losing Season by Pat Conroy.

If youlike any of his other books (Great Santini, Lords of Discipline, Prince of TIdes, Beach Music) I guarantee that you will love this one as it is his autobiography pretty much. All in reference to his losing season as a basketball player at the Citadel.

REALLY Great book by a really great writer. Whatever you find I hope you enjoy!

Finished the new Harry Potter next weekend, have a bit of time before I have to tackle the last LOTR book, so I'm doing some serious reading right now, a book called Power Vs. Force by Dr. David R. Hawkins. Simply amazing stuff. If anybody else has read or reads it in the future, PM me! I'd love to discuss this book with anyone who has read it.

I'm walking a marathon to raise money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Click Here for more information!

I'm on #5, about to start as soon as my dad finishes it. It's already made the rounds through my mom and my sister; I'm last because I wasn't there with them midnight the night it came out like I was supposed to be. I opted for a trip to Miami...go figure.
Anyway, love Harry Potter! Great books!

you do know you can go buy your own copy.....right?



Yes, well, that costs good money that can be used for jumping; and being on student status, I need all the spare money I can get!
That means being patient. Which is fine; my dad will be finished SOMETIME before the sixth book comes out!;)

Don't know if these are to your taste, but I've just started re-reading "In the Electric Mist with Confederate Dead" by James Lee Burke. He turns the hard-boiled-detective genre on it's ear, and is possibly the greatest prose writer in this genre. Any one of his Dave Robicheaux books is good, but ITEMWCD is a cut above.
