Re: What Are You Reading?

One hell of a bump(the thread).

I just finished reading this book called "Out" by Natsuo Kirino. Pretty crazy book but good.

It's one of the best books I've ever read more than once. Did you catch the History Channel special on Tsun Tzu?

Parts of it were a bit slow, but overall yeah it was quite good. Columbine was my first experience with a major news story (from the perspective of being part of the media) and I must say what we thought we knew...we had no idea.

Read it. Reading Underworld by Don DeLillo now. Don't know if you saw but they have a "debate" between Gladwell and Bill Simmons up on ESPN (although they don't seem to disagree with each other about much).
