Bait and Switch: The (Futile) Pursuit of the American Dream by Barbara Ehrenreich. Really? I figured you'd be reading a TJ Maxx employee handbook.

Hatching Twitter, which is the story about the founding of Twitter. Apparently it is the classic story of greed; when the money pours in too quickly everyone fucks everyone over.
So far the main characters all started from humble and not very academic backgrounds. I have just started it. That reminds me that I need to watch Treasure of the Sierra Madre again.

I just finished the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan. Its a very long epic fantasy that spans 14 novels. The ending wasn't bad but not as good as one would expect from such a long story.

I missed your post first time by... Dickey was drinking buddies with my college American Literature Professor. He was a giant presence of a man. He visited my prof a few times that I was aware but I steered clear of them in the bars. Drinking brown liquor with a professor and a crazy author is bad business. I confess never reading the book. How is the story without the soundtrack?

I've never actually watched the movie. They've been running it on IFC but just at the wrong time. And the dvr is filled up with wrestling and Dr. Phils.

How is the story without the soundtrack? That's fascinating. I had an American Lit prof who was a friend and neighbor of Stephen King's. I was never invited to drink with either of them, but heard some amusing anecdotes relating King's eccentricities. Particularly his long list of phobias. The same professor also had a story about meeting J.D. Salinger... which I'm certain would be interesting if I could recall a single detail. College was a damned long time ago.

I'm not currently reading this, but it's worth mentioning that Daniel Keyes, author of the famous short story/novel, "Flowers for Algernon," died this week. The idiot main character, Charlie, was later portrayed by Cliff Robertson in the film version.
