Sandstorm: Policy Failure in the Middle East by Leon Hadar is pretty good.

I like Robert Higgs, too.

I've narrowed it down to either this book:

Amazon.com: The Many Faces of Alexander Hamilton: The Life & Legacy of America's Most Elusive Founding Father: Books: Douglas Ambrose,Robert W. T. Martin

or teh Bodygroom....

I understand that, but there are books that are fiction that are within the realm of explaining humanity....where it may not be fact, but it's more like an example of what the human experience is....

The kind of thing where reading it, makes you understand what it means to be human more....

Well, I'm an English Major, so if you ever want some Fiction reccommendations, let me know!

I've always wanted to read lit classics... but just never do it... I buy books like the one above on Alexander freakin Hamilton instead

hi Holly, thanks for viewing my thread

motivez · 08-02-2006, 02:39 AM

Get both!

thomez · 08-02-2006, 02:43 AM

I'm on a quest to not buy things and live as cheap as possible so that is out of the question... I shouldn't get either since both are more than 25 bucks

I read alot of the more Modern and Contemporary stuff....because I hate the same stories repeated...

Dave Eggers has a couple of really wonderful books, and they are so different...

Kurt Vonnegut is never boring....

Hunter Thompson has a wonderful writing style that's very entertaining...

So.. are your testicles smooth now?

thomez · 08-02-2006, 11:00 PM

ya, but not from the bodygroom, just a reg trimmer

I also found that Amazon is running a 4 for 3 promo so I might pick up like 4 or 5 7 dolla books which include Hamilton stuff, Thomas Paine stuff, etc
