LadyStrangeWhat Are You Reading? II
My Life as a Spy by John A. Walker, Jr. This piece of work was drilled into our heads when I was in the Navy, and I wanted to hear his side of things. A relatively interesting read.

rocketThe Odyssey by Homer. Never thought I'd get into this but I am quietly amazed by every page so far!

Braling IIIsn't "The Dark Tower" that unfinished C.S. Lewis story?
Just finished "A Thousand Splendid Suns" by Khaled Hosseini, author of "The Kite Runner".
Very good historical fiction.
Rocky! Doing well, bud.
Working hard, singing, and playing jazz.
I'm off to do the latter anon.

fjp451Killer Angels (Shaara), Rubicon: The Triumph and Tragedy of the Roman Empire (Holland)...not unlike our current dilemmas!? Animal Farm (Orwell), and Ray Bradbury Companion (Nolan), who along with Mr. B and Mr. Michael Prichard (a la Capt. Beatty), signed my classroom F451 - with all of its notes, underlines, and allusions plentifully evident.
BTW: What fine gentlemen they all are (and were when we shared some time with each)!!

Braling IIWell, we played on local TV, but I couldn't get a link.
I like the live shows with audience better anyway.
I'll let ya know...
How about a recording?
Maybe I could figure a way to send that over the ethers and maintain my cyber-anonymity?
