Re: What are you reading?
The Good Cigar by H. Paul Jeffers & Kevin Gordon. Not a bad book considering the copyright is 1996. Fun to read how much some things have changed in the world of cigars.

Great book....
If you enjoy it and want to give a few of his other books a try. I just dug out "Where the Trout are All as Long as Your Leg" "Dances with Trout" & "Sex, Death & Flyfishing." Last edited by E.J.; 01-12-2010 at 07:51 PM. |

Re: What are you reading?
Atlas Shrugged, by Ayn Rand. Little over halfway and love this book. Just checked out The Grapes of Wrath from the library today. I need to read quicker.

Currently reading The Nine: Inside the Secret World of the Supreme Court by Jeffery Toobin. Really don't care for the author's political commentary. Nevertheless, it's a fascinating description of the Justices, the process and the deliberations. |

Re: What are you reading?
It's been a while since I read this, but the details that stick in my memory are his description of Rehnquist's poker games and the friendship between Scalia and Ginsburg. Political commentary is almost unavoidable with cases like Bush v. Gore, but the fact that Ginsburg and Scalia are socially very close says a lot about the nature of the court. A good read.
