I just picked up American Theocracy. Anyone read this yet? Looks good.
I'm interested in taking a look through Cobra II.
And I'm also going back through "In Search of Schroedinger's Cat."

You must be on vacation soon? School is almost over.

Killing for Pleasure.
The definitive story of the Snowtown serial murders.
Thick, solid and tight in all the right places.

You mean you aren't reading tome after tome of precedents in your neverending quest to become the greatest lawyer possible?

I do enough of that during the semester, although one of the four books I'm taking away with me on holiday is a law book.

Mostly Harmless. Its the last of the Douglass Adams books I have left to read I believe. I finished the other 4 of the Hitchhiker's guide series so far, but was quite disappointed by the 4th.
I'm not sure exactly how many D.A. books I have left to read. So far I've done:
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Restaraunt at the end of the Universe
Life, the Universe, and Everything
So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish
Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency
The Long Dark Teatime of the Soul
I read most of these a few years ago when I was on an extremely boring job. Fairly entertaining.

The Elegant Universe. It's starting to get very interesting.

Mein Kampf
again..
[size=75][i]I once had a glass of milk.
It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.
I am now sick.

Not reading anything at the moment, but just finished Ghost by John Ringo. It reads like a shitty action movie - entertaining and kind of humorous, but don't expect anything else. Lots of explosions, guns, and sex. The book gets a lot of bad reviews from people who take it too seriously...but after reading it I honestly doubt that's the author's intent.

Maybe the same book?
"Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!"
Reading it on recommendation from a friend. Interesting, but nothing to write home about.
