Re: What are YOU reading?
Islands in the Stream - for the third time. Ah, Hemingway. I've read it four times....one of my favorites. I read somewhere they were making another movie version of it Everyone I've ever talked to who has read this book loves it and has reread it, but yet the critics dogged it when it came out.

Who cares if Michael Phelps tokes? That is nothing like an elementary school teacher toking. I still wouldn't care about that either. But I think those are two very different examples. He swims for a living. He doesn't educate kids. And Buffett is also a role model, right? PTYDFYOGH is far worse tha...

I...

Although Joe MErchant was okay and I have reread that one, I think Tales was the only one of real quality stor...
