Oh I am sorry. "Wild at Heart" by Thomas Neilson.

As I said before, it is important that every "man" read this book. Even though we would all like to believe we are "Men" just because we got hair down there, and can pay our bills, we think we got it. But this deffinetly is essential to really grow into a Man....... Man. grin

The Bpg People by P.V. Glob

Real book, real writer, really not something that a kid should see around the living room. It's got a leathery faced bog corpse on the front. When I was a kid, my parents wouldn't let me read it but they left the covver on... Maybe that's why I'm a horror writer...professor

Get something serious from the technical book store, you will bw happy you did. Maybe a big fat book on the type of software your computer runs and how it will change before you finish the first volume... or I enjoyed an older book named "the luxus conspiracy"
yes that really held my attention.

I know it is old school and I only studied it(never really found practical application for it). I have studied 'C', 'C+', Basic, Machine(not for hacking) and some HTML. I never used it so don't remember much of it.

On a serious note...of the multitudes of books that I have read, digested, absorbed...

"Women who run with the wolves" Christina Estes Pinkola

"The art of happiness" The Dalai Lama...

are the two that I come back to over and over....may not be where you want to head, nathan, but some of the gals might find The Wolves one an interesting read....
