Just finished reading Brewing up a Business by Sam Calagione. He is the founder of Dogfish Head Brewery. Very interesting book about his life and getting into craft brewing.

In a moment of weakness I committed to reading an unabridged version of Don Quixote. My guess is that book will take about 53 cigars to read.

Last man on the moon by Gene Cernan. I've always been in love with the space program (although not so much lately thanks to a lack of human exploration beyond low earth orbit) and the Apollo program was the peak of the programs history.

Audio book: Game of thrones a clash of kings

Sua Sponte: The Forging of a Modern American Ranger . Reminiscing of the old days. Man this retirement is not as cool as I hoped. I am so looking forward to school starting in the Fall.

Back to the book. Its been a great read so far. It is nice to see how even though some things have changed the standards are still there.

If you liked Jordan and you haven't read Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series, I highly recommend it.

After about 7 or 8 of Jordan's books, I was thinking "Good Lord, end it already", and quit reading them, although I enjoyed them tremendously up to that point.

With Goodkind, I read all 11 and was so bummed when I read the last page of the last book. Still trying to find another good series...
