Watcha Readin'?


Recommended Posts

Going through some books in a box from the attic and sat, stared
at the titles.
" Jonathan Livingston Seagull ", The Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way
to Knowledge ", " Primal Scream: the Cure for Neurosis ", " I'm Ok, You're Ok ".
Ah the 70's. Always searching...
Anyways, of the books in the box, started to reread " A Watership Down".
Had forgotten just how relaxing, and downright good this is.

A plug for my local library, which has both ebooks and audiobooks for loan.

With my library card, I can download either for 21 days and it just
'goes away'. No returning.

Check if your local has this service.
( also a couple of other services are magazines and get to download 7 mp3 songs a week that are yours to keep )

'Failure IS Not An Option'

Love that title.

From Mercury to Apollo, this man shaped our future.

In 1961, Alan Shepard lifted off from Cape Canaveral, and I was in the 4 grade.
Gene takes us along, explaining what it took to get us into the 'Space Race'.

When he started, there was no book on how you do it.  
He and others, just wrote it...
Working with slide rules, rotary phones, they took us to amazing heights.

He is best remembered for how he handle the Apollo 13 problems.

As you can tell, I really like the space program and this is an incredible book.
