Oh yeah! The Once and Future King is a classic, the funnest King Arthur story I've read.

Yeah, I read "A Walk in the Woods". I kept wondering if the dude would ever be able to walk the whole trail.

I really thought he would....you know, after he got all in shape and inspired. Now, that other dude! What a hoot he was! I can't remember when I've laughed so hard reading a book!

bill bryson's A SHORT HISTORY OF NEARLY EVERYTHING is a science classic for those of us who slept through our science classes in school. Be they physics, astromomy, geology, archeology, etc. and makes it, believe it or not, both funny and interesting.

Being in a linguistics field, I rather enjoyed Bryson's The Mother Tongue. Informative and entertaining.

Okay, fine! I will get the science book! Sounds great!

Did you see my little girls' stairs, Skibum?

I'm reading 1000 Places to See Before You Die or something like that. It has lots of world travel info interesting. Probably helpful if I'm ever a contestant on the Amazing Race.
