Half way through The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell. I bought it last year, but just getting to read it now during this trip.

People's History of the United States downstairs, and I just finished The Drunkard's Walk upstairs. I want to read some fiction next, so it's either going to be the Dexter series of books (love that show) or the Yiddish Policeman's Union.

Has anyone ever read... The Secret Policeman's Other Ball?

I believe it was the first book written by a computer.

It understood sentence structure, but not vocabulary.

It was hilarious.

I'd like to find a copy; any ideas?
Edit: I've been searching all afternoon, while watching football.

The only things I can find are a couple of books written by computers, neither was what I was looking for. The title that I remember has been linked to a series of benefit concerts. (That's definitely not what I read back in 1975.)

Just ordered a copy of one of my all time favorite books. The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame.

I just can't read fiction, I've only read 3 novels since High School 33 years ago.

 

[unclearthur]

Is that the version with the original illustrations Mr Brandybuck ?

"Dies the Fire: A Novel of the Change" S.M. Stirling

 

[abecox]

I did enjoy S.M. Stirligns Change series.
Right now I'm going through:
Demons, by Fyodor Dostoevsky. (About 500 pages in and all I've met has been character development. Oh those Russians...)
Gravity's Rainbow, by Thomas Pynchon. (Interesting in a strange way, its confusing but at the same time it makes sense.)

Still reading "in search of pipe dreams" but I started the book "I am Number 4" last night and finished it today, it was a great book!

 

[onizuka]

Just finished Murder on the Orient Express read by David Suchet. So I guess I didn't READ it, but I think it should count. It's hard to pass up an audiobook while commuting. Kill two birds and all...
