Well i’ll be finishing up my night class this week and i’ll have some more free time to kill. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on interesting books that they have read or intent to read. Books such as Catch-22, anything by Orwell, one flew over the cuckoo’s nest, a clockwork orange, I used to enjoy Clancy…and series such as Dune. Though out some good ones…or just comment on how reading sucks 🙂 ---

Catch-22 - decent ska band that plays live a lot in Rochester Orwell - Doesnt he make popcorn? one flew over the cuckoo’s nest - sounds like my ex girlfriends a clockwork orange - messed up movie. rent it. Clancy - decent video games esp when you can go shoot up vegas ---

Have you read all of Clancy’s stuff yet? If so and you can dig :tup: I’d go with some Patrick Robinson, similar vein. ---

Running with scissors and Dry were good, kinda wacked out, but good. Atlas Shrugged is good, but its over 1k pages and kinda a tough read, but if you like books on socialism and such, you will most likely enjoy it. ---

Yah I plan on reading over the books I have again which is quite the selection…I read about 90% of Clancy’s books but the latest started to bore me for some reasons. Thanks for the suggestions guys! Oh and FUCKING HIPPIES…I was also thinking about re-reading the sword of truth series i read when i was younger by um …Terry Goodkind I believe…its a sci-fi kinda like Harry Potter type deal but more d&d like . Yah I’m a nerd o well…I tend to like books about socialism actually…sometimes I daydream that could actually make a change in the world, which would make life so much better…then reality hits me and I realize I’ll just buy my house in suburbia, do burn outs in my vette, piss off my ritzy neighbors and drink beer on the week ends ---
