I just received the 2 books I ordered from Amazon.com today. "The Secret" and "Boomsday". Can't wait to get started on them!
So, what are you reading/or going to read?

Just finished Stephen Donaldson 'Gap Cycle' series again.
Wrapped up 'The Gap into Ruin: This Day All Gods Die' a few days ago.
Horrors! Found out that I do not have anything waiting in the wings to read. Immediately ordered a stack of used books off Amazon... so my next read will be the first one to make it to my mailbox.

Have three books that I am working on right now:
Wizard's First Rule by Terry Goodkind (recommended by Ramon....great book)
Zen and The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert M. Pirsig - oldie but goodie that for some reason I never got around to reading...go figure?
Karate-Do, My Way of Life by Gichin Funakoshi - a re-read that helps to calm the psyche during rattled times.

Lisey's Story--a big, fat Stephen King novel. I don't have as much time to read these days, so it could take longer than ususal for me. I like it alot so far.

Ah! The foreigners put on such airs

And their harlequin eyes.
The pain they inspire
Draws in harmonica melodies
And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer
Debonair.

Usless Information
did you KNOW that the three president's who faced impeachment all had names referring to their "winkies"?
Andrew Johnson, Bill Clinton and Richard NIxon
That's about as usless information as you can get -- the rest of the book is hillarious too...

Did you know that there are 550 hairs in an average eyebrow?

I'm still reading "Zodiac." No; it's not a result of the movie. It's one of those that I find around here now and then...Not well-done. Boring.
After ten years, I finally read "Glenn Miller & His Orchestra." This is one of those things relatives buy you for Christmas when you mention that you like a lot of big band stuff....although, his is not my favorite. The book was okay.

William Jefferson Blythe Clinton
In my neck of the woods, I've heard "Johnson" and "Dick," but we've never referred to our "winkies" as "William," "Jefferson," "Blythe," or "Clinton."
"Willie" perhaps....
Unless Bill Clinton's nickname was "Schwanstucker...."

I recently read "For One More Day" by Mitch Albom - very good book!
I'm now about 2/3 of the way through "Naked" by David Sedaris. My brother picked this book out for me for Christmas, and it's hilarious!! Very good!! Anytime someone has read the book and sees me reading it, they say, "Oh that's such a great book!!" Of course, one day one of my fellow nurses saw me reading it at lunch time and said, "Carrie...what the hell are you reading? Porn?" LOL..it isn't...but I knew somebody would make that comment. So now I read it with the cover flat on the table! Ha!... I highly recommend it!!

Mel, is The Secret written by Rhonda Byrne? If, then let me know what you think about it, because I have thought about ordering it.
I've been reading mostly media theory lately, so the last non-theory book I read was Wayne W. Dyer's The Power of Intention, which I enjoyed a lot.
