Very amusing book but I can see some twisted moron thinking that it is a non-fiction (it's written in the belief that it is) and building an arsenal up for zombie defense...

That's no joke, just recently they arrested a guy at the port authority bus terminal with swords/knives etc.... They say he was getting ready for the zombie apocalypse.

That being said if your into zombies "World War Z", also by Max Brooks is IMO by far the best of the genre.

If you're looking for a book that helps explain the current "financial crisis" (as though it's any different than any of the recent -- or distant -- past "financial crises") pick up Milton Friedman's Money Mischief, Episodes in Monetary History.

I was familiar with some of the information he covers, but as to the source for our current problems, dating back to the so-called "Crime of 1873" which details the Coinage Act of 1873 that allowed the bi-metallic monetary system to die in America, it adds an interesting perspective on how we got to the current stage in our monetary history. It details how the "money changers" took over the temple.

This is one certainly not for the timid or the "head in the sand" crowd.

Welcome to the board. Do you smoke cigars when you read?

**imnotpete** · 09-08-2011, 09:29 PM

I've just finished Perdido Street Station by China Miéville, and am now reading Neil Gaiman's The Graveyard Book. Both quite good.

Currently rereading the A Song of Ice and Fire series by George R. R. Martin

I'm on book 3 and wanted to get ahead of the opener for season two of the TV Series which is on on Sunday April 1st.

The TV Series is called "Game of Thrones" which is actually book 1 of the series.

Oh, and if anybody is wondering, I pretty much always read when smoking a cigar alone. Of course it would be rude to read while smoking in company so I don't then.

**jimmy** · 04-24-2012, 09:19 AM

Finished Jim Butcher's "Side Jobs" (part of the Harry Dresden Series) at work, started on and finished R.A. Salvatore's Servant of the Shard and just finished his Promise of the Witch King.

Great books, but now I'm out on my Kindle... damn thing.

Excellent series and show. Savor them while you're still reading them, because the wait in between books is a bitch!

I'm finishing up my re-read of The Lord of the Rings. I haven't read them since the 5th grade, and it was a better time than any to pick them up again. I'm also reading The Wind Through the Keyhole by Stephen King. I'm a big King fan, and a big Dark Tower fan too.
