Kite Runner's all right. Thought the main character whined too much. I liked a widow for one year better by irving, siddhartha was great, but again, I thought the kid in "catcher" was annoying. Life of Pi, that was pretty damned good though. Forgot who wrote it, some canuck, I think. You know what was an exceptional book and I am disappointed I waited so long to read it? Tale of Two Cities. It's a little hard to get through some of it, but damn, it was worth it.

The big switch - very cool read, and I would very, very much recommend it for technology workers as a something to ponder when thinking about your future career.

Oh yes!
What I love about running is you can meditate while running. It's a peaceful place.

The website is OK, but the mag is worth reading for sure. About Tech, but not just servers and windows stuff. Always some good reading.
