It'd been a while, so I'm reading through the Lord of the Rings again.

I'm also reading Beowulf (the REAL one, not a modern novel adapation of the utterly horrible movie  :furious).

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

I hate fiction. I think I burned out on fiction in the 80's with Steven King novels.

Anyway, currently reading "SAS Survival handbook" and "Hidden Hawaii" and a handfull of self-improvement Project Management books from time to time (like when I'm taking a crap)

I reread "Point of Impact" every 5 years or so. Great book, wish the movie could have been a little truer to the character.
