some acting group near my home does Shakespeare in the park every summer. Decided to read The Taming of the Shrew before I check out the performance

A combined edition of "The Prince" and "Discourses on Livy" by Niccolo Machiavelli.

My past history lessons (high school etc.) had treated Machiavelli as an advocate of amorality, if not the devil incarnate. Per Eric Hoffer's commentaries in "The Ordeal of Change" and other references, I now look at "The Prince" (his more commonly recognized work) as a sort of "demo reel" by a veteran of Renaissance politics, who was himself above reproach, had been put to pasture by a change of regime, and wanted more than anything to get back into the game.

Roots of Obama's Rage by Dinesh D'Souza. Had a lot of political psychology in college and a friend asked me to read it. Gave him a fascinating book on the Federal Reserve. Guess we are going to have lunch sometime and compare notes.

I'm not big on conspiracy theories ... try to keep an open mind and ignore the BS. Just started it and, so far, the guy is laying out a pretty straightforward case.

Just finished Inferno by Dan Brown. Good story...less religion in this one....more science.

Great gatsby - reread. Was going see the new flick but maybe I'll just watch the Redford version instead.
