Looks like someone's looking forward to buying some Sanders speakers...

Haha maybe later down the line, but I'd have to hear them first.  I'm going to build my own ESL HPs.  I've had the book for a while now but just got around to starting it while on vacation last week, interesting stuff.

"1984" is finished, what a book! I must reread it.

Now I'll try to restart reading S. A. Barnett's "Science Myth Or Magic" and Thomas Paine's "The Age Of Reason". I'm planning to go for an international bachelor studies on university level so I might as well start reading.

Heads-up: The kindle version of "World's Collider: A Shared-World Anthology" is currently free from Amazon US/UK. I purchased it myself a few months back, wonderful read if you're into dark science-fiction.

The complete Plato collection, I'm about 1/4 of the way through, fascinating and enjoyable stuff really. Pairs well with jazz :P

Really though very interesting dialogues, much more applicable to today than one might expect.

Serious reading; Proficient Motorcycling. First in a series of books I plan to read to hopefully be a better rider and avoid killing myself. This first book is mainly about knowing how the bike works, and common stuff on public roads that can get you in trouble.



Fun reading. I've loved some of Chabon's other works (Kavalier & Clay being the best) and music being part of the setting for his newest book is an instant pick up for me. Hoping it's good!

I'm a total sucker for high-tech military fiction.  Read the new Tom Clancy earlier in the week.  About to dig into the newest Dale Brown's Dreamland book.

According to Walter Mosely's website, the next Easy Rawlins book is scheduled to come out on my birthday.  Woo-hoo!

Jonathan Swifts "Gulliver's Travels". I'm reading the Everyman's Library edition in old English. Once you get used to the English it becomes easy to understand...
