Speaking of great Black authors, I am reading Iceberg Slim's autobiographical: Pimp. This dude pimped with the best of them. This is probably one of the most entertaining audiobooks I have had the pleasure of listening to. Seriously, some of the lines these pimps use on their ho's are more impressive than Christopher Marlowe's best verse. Its not a long book, and I think many people on here might get a kick out of reading it. Five stars.

We really should celebrate Feb 6 each year as Aaron Burr Day.

Great Yankees of American History.

No it’s not. You can’t imagine whiskey and it appears.

Listening to Dear Reader by Michael Malice atm. Pretty funny and fucked up book about Kim Jong Il and DPRK.

Reading Lenin by Robert Conquest. Also good.

I'm also starting on the Gulag Archipeligo.

Sounds topically depressing. And too much RUSSIA! haha. No, I love learning out Russia. Wish I would have taken more classes on it in college. I've read Viktor Frankel so I have no stomach for more and longer Gulag narrative. Even those the former was about the Holocaust, you get the idea and the message. BTW Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm excited to start reading either,

It’s time for CME (Continuing Medical Education) units. I won’t be reading anything else for a while except during 15 days in Panama & Columbia when I’ll be rereading some of my old David Brin books, then back to CME.
