'The Bedford Boys'. It's about Compagnie A. The first compagnie to set foot on Omaha Beach in the 2nd WW. Most were from a small town called Beford and they pretty much all died within a few seconds. It's shocking...but interesting.

Man's Search For Meaning by Viktor E Frankl. It's an account of his experiences of the Nazi concentration camps and his subsequent work of 'logotherapy'. Very very interesting.
"A dialogue about power and other conversations", by Michel Foucault, selected by Miguel Morey. A collection of essays from Foucault, some of them with other authors. The topics: Truth, power, popular justice, history of prison and inprisonment, history of sex. It's a kind of extra for another Foucault's: "Microphysics of power", book that I'm into by now.

Last book I read was I think one Laurel and Hardy biography.
Anne Rice "Queen Of The Damned" I am a huge Anne Rice fan including her erotica books. I am greatly dissapointed in her recent transistion into religious works. Given from what I have read of her recent works, they seemed forced, cliche and almost juevenile. A stark departure from the well thought out in depth character development of old.
I haven't finished it yet, but the last book I read was Without Pity by Ann Rule. It's just a bunch of true crime cases.

If the primates that we came from had known that someday politicians would come out of the gene pool, they'd stayed up in the trees and written evolution off as a bad idea.
Mr Murder, which is a slightly strange thriller/horror.
Nothing thrilling or horrific about it other than the fact I bought another book which wasted time I don't have for little or no pleasure [sigh]
A guy blacks out....
Another guy, who is an assassin detects this guy and decides to go against his programming and head out towards this guy - over many states. He's genetically engineered to be the perfect killing machine.
Inadvertantly they'd used a gene sample from the first guy to make the second one... Rather than the sample they were supposed to use.
They look identical, only their mannerisms are different, though the second guy is a soulless murderer, he craves a real life, a mum, a dad, kids, a wife.
So he decides that the first guy is an imposter and the kids and wife are really his, he will kill the imposter and take them back.
[chase]
He almost kills him
[chase]
the creators kill the clone. Then have to kill the real guy and his family cos they know about the clone.
One creator kills the other to save the original guy
They go into hiding.
I throw the book across the room and groan about stupidity...... lol
