The American Promise - A History of the United States, Volume I: To 1877
<_<
Non-school related, nothing at the moment, though I'm thinking about either borrowing/buying The Da Vinci Code or 1984.

Currently, I'm reading "The Star Of Kazan" by Eva Ibbotson & "The Thief Lord" by Cornelia Funke.

Just finished rereading all the (complete) Hitchiker books by Douglas Adams. I always forget how much of a bummer Mostly Harmless is. Actually, I had mostly forgotten everything from the series, which is why I decided to read the books again. Next I'm going to mosey on down to the library and pick up The Salmon of Doubt.
Also just finished reading a book with tons of US historical trivia stuff. Did you know Thomas Jefferson was once sent a 1,235-pound cheese?

I have The Ultimate Hitchiker's Guide. It's really good. Wasn't that cheese from France?

That's the way I read them...I should really buy it.
The cheese was from farmers in Massachusetts. It was sent to Jefferson as a gift, but he gave the farmers $200 because they weren't rich people. The cheese was sent in 1802 and supposedly served at the White House until 1805.

Oh... yeah... I think I heard about that once... I will definitely remember that now!

The Catcher in the Rye by JD Salinger
I'm only less than halfway through about it and I wonder if that's just all it's about O_O

Just a brief History of Eastern Philosophy. Unfortunately it dives right in with book names that I'm not familiar with.

I hate it when they do that!

O.o
Ok. That's weird. I've been in the middle of The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide for a while now and had just decided to finally post about it when I scroll down and see your post.
I'm loving it. Douglas Adams is my hero.

I know the bhagavad gita, I tried to read it once but after 50 pages of 'You will not even be able to comprehend the smallest molecule of the sublime truth contained within these pages as a mortal human and een less so if you have not converted and devoted your life to Krishna' I stopped.
