The book on Rush Limbaugh, the book about Zappos, and the book about social networking by AmberMac are now on the book shelf. A few more steps on the road to knowledge. Each of those books were very quick and easy reads and each provided me with insights I didn’t possess before. Particularly Tony Hsieh’s [Continue]
Me. They are either the authors or the subject of books I’m currently reading. I’ve neglected to update the books I’ve picked up for early summer reading. These are: For the Win by Cory Doctorow Power Friending by Amber MacArthur Delivering Happiness: A Path to Profits, Passion, and Purpose by Tony Hsieh Rush Limbaugh: An [Continue]
Finally finished “Everything Asian” and “Inside of a Dog: What Dogs See, Smell, and Know” after a long reading break. I tend to do this. Take a break from reading for a month and then spend hours and hours catching up. “Everything Asian” was a nice enough book but I’m not sure how many people [Continue]
I just finished the 1000+ page novel, “Under the Dome”, by Stephen King a few minutes ago. I haven’t tackled a book so large in a while but it was well worth the time spent. Even though it was over a thousand pages long the story never felt slow or boring. In fact, towards the [Continue]

Furthermore, I’m quite confident that most of the critics of Sarah Palin and her book have never actually cracked open the [Continue]

Given the history that we know of her and her rise to the governor’s office in Alaska I don’t see how anyone can put this woman down for her accomplishments. I’m also fascinated by the hatred of her by Democrats, people in the media, and [Continue]
I just received my copy of Stephen King’s new novel, “Under the Dome”. It’s a whopper! A total of 1072 pages. Thank goodness for my Amazon Prime account. I wouldn’t want to pay the shipping on that monster. http://twitpic.com/p22w9 Since I’m in the middle of a few other books it will be a few weeks [Continue]
I just received two new books that I intend to crack open soon. I just finished “Men in Black” and I’m halfway through “The Housing Boom and Bust” so I thought it was time to add a couple more to the queue. The first is another non-fiction political book written by columnist Mark Steyn called [Continue]
Ever since I left school (That’s entirely another story) I started reading. Why? Because I could finally read things that piqued my interest rather than read what was assigned. I absolutely could not concentrate in school reading books I was told to read. So in the sidebar of my blog you’ll find a list of [Continue]
