I really like Vince Flynn's novels but I thought Act of Treason was lacking a little. Still a damn fine read. Nelson Demille's Wild Fire is coming out soon if it isn't already out.
What are you currently reading?
- Thread starter DR STRANGELOVE
- Start date
I havent read the first one, Tavros from this board turned me onto trading, since he trades. And He told me about the book. I really enjoy it quite a bit, it just takes me a long time to comprehend alot of what they are saying.
Layinwood, I would like to get your email from jack so i could talk to you about trading.
I just met Dennis Fritz, one of guys that the book was written about, about a half hour ago. He came and told his story to our class. Pretty scary stuff.
As for what I'm reading at the moment? "Adjudication and its Alternatives: An Introduction to Procedure" Riveting stuff.

It is a great reflection on our society and how easy it is to score on all those easy Hos!!!

Dear Penthouse Letters,
I never thought it could happen to me, but boy was I wrong. I met this woman at the church picnic and she was very attractive. Father Mylar told me her name was Carol. All the men who were unmarried certainly noticed how attractive she was, so I figured I had to make my move. Seven months later we were married, and we had relations. Wow! It really can happen to anyone!

Dear Penthouse Letters,
I was home alone, flipping channels, when for some unknown reason, I began to watch Martha Stewart. And she's telling me how to make spice tins out of an orange rind and I start noticing how sexy she is. So she's there on the screen forcing those orange rinds onto pre-sized bottles, you know, to get the proper shape for the tin, and I'm getting all turned on! So I begin t touch myself as Martha bakes the rinds in the oven for 3 to 4 hours, until they're nice and hard. And sure enough, I'm all nice and hard. I start to think about what Martha would do in a situation like this, so I grab an old T-shirt or dust rag, you probably have them lying about the house, and pleasure myself right there in front of the TV, no mess at all!! Martha would totally be proud. Well, needless to say it was one of the most intense sexual experiences of my life! Just incredible.

Dear Penthouse Letters,
My friend and I walked into a total lesbian bar the other night. We had no idea, but when we opened the door, there were all these scalding hot hotties. And they were all over each other! Man, I began to throb, let me tell you! So my friend turns to me and says "I bet these chicks just need a real man. They'd probably be all over us if we let them." He's a pretty smart guy, so I figured he was probably right. So I walk into the middle of the bar, get the attention of every hottie in the room (not difficult, it was pretty obvious they were into me, just like my friend said they'd be) and said "Hey girls! I know you guys think you're dykes and all, but I bet you'd love to have a real man! Who's up for it?"
Two months later, when I got out of traction, my friend told me he's pretty sure one or two of them really did seem interested in hitting on me, as opposed to just hitting me in the face. Too bad the other 40 or 50 dykes were so uppity about it. I might have had a threesome!!!

Dear Penthouse Letters,
I never thought it could happen to me.
I was in my car, driving down the road towards the stop light, when it suddenly turned green right in front of me and I didn't have to stop or even slow down! Then, as I approached the next light, it too turned green!
I swear I'm not making this up!

informative but pretty tedious huh?
Conspiracy whackos drive me nuts when I think about the section in the beginning of the book describing when the actual 9/11 attacks occured and the lack of coordination between military and govt agencies.
"King of the Jews" by Nick Tosches
A biography of mobster Arnold Rothstein, the fellow who reputedly fixed the 1919 World Series.
Tosches, tho, uses the bio to launch into many diverting alleys and tunnels---discursions on Biblical mis-translations, opium, early Rock and Roll, gangs of NY, lies of history and more. He's always a funny,cranky and scabrous writer (tho this book is not among his best, such as the Dean Martin bio, or novel "In the Hand of Dante" or "The Devil and Sonny Liston"). An except from "King of the Jews" :
Then there came a time -- no one in old New York, no one, would have believed it -- when you could not find a firecracker, let alone an opium den, in Chinatown; a time when you could not find a sin in Times Square, save for the mortal sin of mediocrity; a time when you could not find an ashtray in a bar; a time when real life and real freedom, replaced by lip service to them, became the vice that New York, like the vast dying nothingness of America itself, was ashamed to mention."
