I just finished Laughter is Better Than Communism by Andrew Heaton. A very funny book, including great commentary on multiple political thingys. Only $4 ! (I love the comedian that wrote it and wish to promote him as far and wide as possible, so I can see him in more places and things.)

I am now getting back to Red Seas Under Red Skies (Gentleman Bastards, Book 2) by Scott Lynch which is also a great book all about Con men in a fantasy setting.

I’m about to pick up Basic Economics, 5th edition by Thomas-Sowell Probably the closest thing I have to a bible… (I’ve read the 4th ed a couple of times.) I’ve got the link to an interview for the book in my sig.

[b]The Great Courses

Parts 1 and 2
Philosophy & Intellectual History
Audiobooks[/b]

That’s what I’m talking about right there! Hell yeah!

I’m reading Beowulf, the Seamus Heaney translation; the one in archaic English is barely intelligible to me.

:laughing: But Erik, you failed to say what exactly you’re talking about.
By the way, I’m enjoying the audiobooks. I’m pretty good at [arguing] :laughing: but not disciplined nor have the knowledge to present a good argument et cetera and being that I am not that knowledgeable in the first place as most here are, I need all the help which I can muster. I would call myself more the “dabbler”.
I’m so looking forward to continuing with it.

.
Never read that.

Good, very good, [size=150]Arc[/size]. I might check out those audiobooks too.

Never read Beowulf ? It’s a classic! What about The Odyssey or Iliad?
