It is considered racist to refer to African American men as "boys." Did you make this mistake the other day? Maybe that explains Thurgreed's gratuitous assassination of your looks, personality, and character.

That was pretty entertaining, but Hiaasen's stuff always seems like it was written in 48 hours with little or no editing. It's definitely in the beach novel category.

I know this is probably not what you're looking for, but I finally got around to the second volume of Taylor Branch's history of MLK and the civil rights movement ("Pillar of Fire"). It's quite a bit shorter than Parting the Waters and covers a more limited period - 1963-65, I think. It's also not as mired in the intricacies of southern Baptist political manuevering (which made Parting the Waters a tough slog in places) and covers the rise of Malcom X as a national figure almost as much as King. All in all it is a great piece of history writing and brings the era to life from Lyndon Johnson all the way down to movement volunteers and voter drives in Hattiesburg. I. highly. recommend. it.
since your legal practice is essentially sticking riders into agreements, you might care to read such weighty stuff when travelling on business. Not Bob has to be thinking about how to trick some poor person into admitting she was at fault when she slipped on peanut oil spilled across the Piggily Wiggily floor. He wants something lighter. But thanks for playin!

I actually just finished that, and learned a lot more about Malcom than I would have expected. (I haven't read the first one.) T

If you haven't already done so, check out David Halberstam's "The Children"

Clive Owen has been cast to play Sir Walter Raleigh opposite Cate Blanchett's reprisal of the role of Elizabeth.

And while I am on my way there, I will need something to read. Any suggestions? I'm not interested in any non-fiction that has anything to do with any events after 1980. With respect to fiction, my taste is pretty eclectic, though I am not usually a fan of stuff that is too high-fallutin. In other words, no Umberto Eco, Toni Morrison, Thomas Pynchon, or Mickey Spillane.
I am currently reading A Long Way Down by Nick Hornby (who wrote High Fidelity) and am liking it quite a bit.

I recently read The Good Life by Jay McInnerney and loved loved loved it.

I also read recently Lunar Park by Bret Easton Ellis. It was his most fucked up book yet (and that's saying something after Glamorama).

I also read Middlesex, which was recommended by Sidd. I found it very difficult to get into, but enjoyed it once I did.

Sorry, but unless they didn't like the biting, it sounds less like self-weaning than...weaning.

But so, either way, did you continue pumping after the weaning so they continued to get your milk?

I think I did until my boobs sort of dried up a little....they both liked milk early, the ped. recommends not prior to a year, but we did start organic milk a little on early side. so we did do both past 7 months.

From glancing at the Amazon reviews, it looks like Weir's book focuses more on the personal/romantic life of Elizabeth. Is that accurate? Part of what I really like about Jenkins's book was that I really got a feel for the great personal sacrifice Elizabeth made to be queen. Kind of like she was a modern-day spinster GA.

Flat? Hmmm.

I thought it was sad. It definitely did not end the way I wanted it to. But it made me cry, so flat is not what I got.

Read Brightness Falls if you liked the characters though, for the backstory.

For all of the on and off-line suggestions. As usual, I ended up with a long list of things that look appealing, and I will end up carrying more books than I can read.

Under the new security rules, I think you can still carry on the strap-on. But you'll need to check the lube and scented oils. Or maybe Fugee can provide those?
