You might like this one GM. From a conservative believe it or not. He has been all over the news lately. The book is by Christopher Hitchens called "God is not Great" I havent read it but when i see him talking about his book i think of you. By the way i always thought fiction books were a strange time user. Not sure why anyone would want to read one. Thought i was the only one that thought that.

I have this book in my cart at Amazon.com. Heard about it the other day. If you read the reviews, the readers either give it a 1 or a 5....that usually means it is worth reading. One person mentioned that it fits nicely with The End of Faith and The God Delusion, so I will probably really enjoy it. The problem I have is that I honestly can't see it being better than The End of Faith so I might get bored and/or diappointed with it. Either way, I'll have it in my hands in a couple weeks.

I am currently reading The World is Flat by Tom Friedman....so far, I'm not quite understanding the hype. Has anyone read this? I'm tempted to put this one back on the shelf but I hate doing that unless the book is a complete dud.

Miracle at St Anthony is the best book Ive ever read. Highly recommend it. Smart Money is a pretty new gambling book. Its very interesting how the best gambler in the world won millions all on sports betting.

Other books ive read recently
Moneyball
A March to Madness
Next Man Up.. Great book
The Jump
John Schueroltz book on how he built the Braves

Regarding the Smart Money book, who are your guesses on who the 3 Hollywood actors were he teamed up with to make a million in 2 weeks. My first guess was Matt Damon but couldnt think of the other 2. He says that one of the guys buisness manager is the same as James Gandolfini so if anyone can figure that out theres 1. Really curious about that thoug
