The fuck is wrong with you? I'm RECOMMENDING that you don't read the book. That is by definition a book recommendation.

well its actually a book review, but infants and the really old tend to make up their own word-meaning pairs.

See, Dave, I didn't take part in this one either; even though I chuckled a bit.

You know what?

I am amending my original review.

I think that everyone on this site should run out tonight, and go buy the I Chong by Tommy Chong. Run, don't walk.

2.) The I Chong by Tommy Chong - I am really sorry that I wasted time reading this book. It's the story of Tommy Chongs problems with the Feds. He makes going to Prison sound really awesome.

3.) Eisenhower: 1956 by David Nichols - This was another really good book. It focuses primarily on Eisenhowers foreign policy, specifically the Suez Canal incident of 1956. Highly recommended.

4.) 500 Days by Kurt Eichnwald - Best book that I have read in a long time. This is a focus on the 500 days that followed the 9/11 attacks, and how this government responded. Highest recommendation.

i tend to avoid books about recent and the near recent current events. books and movies about 911 have shown me that even objective reports skew the information as the authors seem to have their own agenda. i think those who really know, are being ignored because their stories are boring and overdone in the media. the first hand observers i do know in the city admin tell me things so different from all the published reports, that i kinda doubt we'll ever get a true report and history on the aftermath of 911.
