I'm going to take a break , I'm tired of reading.

"Great Irish Tales of Horror"
I forgot how enjoyable short stories are. One or two in the evening in lue of some stupid television show.
(Not including Mad Men or Boardwalk Empire of course.)

I have that book Collin. Good reading.

 

[hobie1dog]

Starting to read "The Coke Machine" supposedly after you read this you'll never drink another one, as an insider tells all about Coke.

 

[abecox]

Sounds like one to pick up Colin.
I've been working on War and Peace for a while now, taking breaks here and there to clear my mind of all that late Russian dreck. I'm about halfway to go, and in my edition that means only another 800 or so pages!

I just started the third book of The Girl With The Dragon Tatoo trilogy. It seems like all they do in Sweden is drink coffee, smoke cigarettes and have sex...when they're not busy killing each other that is.

 

[hobie1dog]

The Coke Machine: an insiders story and history of Coke and their shakey ways of doing things...it says you'll never drink another one after you finish the book. 8O

I am currently rereading Sun Tzu's "The Art of War".
@Thomc80: I agree with you 100% on Lovecraft short stories. I have dozens of paperback collections of his short stories and novels and they never ever ever get old. He was a master at creating fantasy worlds. Not many guys can make up a completely otherworldly setting complete with history, language, culture etc. in a 10 page story. And his writing has a way of sucking me right into the world he has created in text to the point of being able to feel the humidity, smell the air, feel the mentality of the culture...etc.

Just started a Raymond Chandler collection that begins with "The Big Sleep". If LA were still as Chandler described it, I'd move back in a heartbeat.

"The Feckin' Book of Everything Irish" by Murphy and O'Dea
It's a scream!

 

[abecox]

Still working on that Keruoac, picked up Paradise Lost for a quarter at a booksale at my campus, seems interesting so far.

 

[classicgeek]

I've got "The Towers of Midnight" by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson sitting on the shelf behind me, begging to be read. But I'm not reading it until NaNoWriMo is over. It's killing me!

I thought about this old string last night.... and was going to post to it today.

Way to go!
I've gone deep in several online poker tourneys lately, and led for a couple of hours in each, but haven't been able to seal the deal.
