Am I the only one reading a real book or what, I'm currently reading The Forgotten Soldier by Guy Sajer. If you haven't read it you have really missed something, those who have know what I'm talking about.

[DANJANOU]

Nope Nondescript, there a few other non students on here too.

I just finished Ghost Soldiers by Hampton Sides. Not a bad read about the Baatan and Corregidor POWs on Luzon rescued by Filipino guerillas and the 6th Ranger Bn in January 1945.

Turns out it's just been filmed as a movie with Tom Cruise and is due out this year.[/i]

He's addicted to female heroes? The fact that you're a med student and misspelled "heroin" is disconcerting...

http://a1055.g.akamai.net/f/1055/1401/5h/images.barnesandnoble.com/images/6150000/6152094.gif

Just kidding. p-) Though I'm sure that it's an excellent book.

Really, I'm just finishing up Carl Sagan's "Contact" (again :roll: ). I love this book. It has so much to it; sociology, security, science, imagination, psychology, believeable people, plausibilty and logic throughout, and a female US President.

[Seoulstriker]

Carl Sagan was also a habitual pot-smoker. p-)

[Tane Angle]

I've heard that a few times, Seoulstriker, but on the other hand, NASA and Cornell had no problem hiring him for a few decades, so I don't know. Regardless, the guy was dang smart. But that's not an excuse to go get high, young fellas. :oops: Good thing Farmgirl isn't here, she'd yell at me for allegedly encouraging drug use.

[Ian H]

Either Salmon of Doubt by Douglas Adams, or if I can motivate myself to do some work, Saving Strangers by Nick Wheeler (to back up the lecture he gave earlier this week).

This is a blatant namedrop, so come on, whose heard of him?

[Minjin]

Just finished Caesar's account of the Gallic Wars (translated of course) and am currently reading Sallust's accounts of the Jugurthine War and the Conspiracy of Catiline. Also translated.

I usually have two or three books going at once, then it takes me forever to finish them. Right now I'm working on The Picture of Dorian Gray, and when I need a break from that I read a story from Ray Bradbury's Illustrated Man.

It's pretty good. A little hard to follow at first, but the premise is cool.

Yeah, me too. I love classics. The last couple years I've been trying to go back and read the ones I missed in school.

[digrar]

Re-reading Clancy's Without Remorse. The transformation of John Kelly to John Clark. I heard someone was looking at turning it into a movie.
