Alaska tends to be a bit of a kook-magnet. How about that guy who forgot to make plans to fly out of the bush? That's kind of an important detail to omit, don't you think?

Just finished reading The Da Vinci Code….talk about a completely over-hyped very average book!!!!!

Just started another one…don't remember it's name but it's about the most devastating hurricane to hit Texas around the turn of the century….(last century)

isaac's storm or something like that, right? i enjoyed that one alot. the author's most recent one is also supposed to be very good, the devil in the white city. . it's about the 1893 world's fair in chicago.

A pretty great book. I enjoyed it more than Into Thin Air, but only because of the mystery element in Krakuer's pieceing together of the kids death. Pretty heavy stuff.

I currently am bookless. Unless you count the copy of Lucky magazine currently residing in my girlfriend's bathroom.

That's it……only just started so just a few pages in at the moment.

Can't say I ever stop reading Baseball Prospectus at all during the season, but I am reading this as well:

Only "OK"?

I really enjoyed Bad Haircut and The Wishbones. But then again, I'm a Northern Jersey boy like Perrotta.

Recently finished the DaVinci Code. I thought it was very enjoyable, even with the cliffhanger-at-the-end-of-every-chapter structure.

Now I'm reading:

Excellent book.

I haven't read Baseball Prospectus before this year, but they seem to be dead wrong on a number of predictions about how teams will do, as well as individual player performances. Have you found this to be true? Is this year an anomoly so far?
