He and I are one-dimensional and a lot alike. Cavey reads Becky - trask reads Hustler - Cavey has big balls - trask has big balls - what's not to like?

Well I guess it's been a year now... yea. drinking. inspired me to put the bottle aside. no shit. too bad sobriety is novel for me. augustens dry was similarly shocking, but better written. for a gay dude hes pretty cool. running with scissors was just shocking.

faust Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 "Barren Lands" by Kevin Krajick. An excellent read about discovering diamonds in the Canadian Arctic. A good bit of the book is really interesting stuff on the history of diamond prospecting in general, including the whole DeBeers travesty. I could hardly put this book down.

sobo Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 Just started readiing Simonson's "Ghosts of Everest" this past weekend. Picked it up at our fundraiser last week. Â If y'all are interested, we practically filled the entire lower floor of the Capitol Theater (seats ~800 on the lower floor), and cleared over $8000 in ticket sales alone. Still calc'ing underwriter's contributions and figuring out teh expenses, but we did WAAAY better than we ever hoped we could. Â Another tidbit: our truck broke down Tuesday on our way to the Mt. Adams mission. Burnt up the clutch going up to Satus Pass. WE SURE DO NEED A NEW TRUCK!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaston_Lagaffe Posted May 30, 2003 Share Posted May 30, 2003 Bourne Supremacy, The Theory of Everything, Little Ice Age, The Cassandra Compact and White Shark plus some horribly bad book that I've forgotten the name of already. Last month I spent reading the entire works of Desmond Bagley, just old times sake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nolanr Posted May 30, 2003 Share Posted May 30, 2003 Finished off Edward Abbey "A Fool's Progress," which I take to be largely autobiographical, although it is a fictional novel. Pretty interesting read. I'm most of the way thru "Summit Fever" now, enjoying that. A bumbly's perspective on a expedition to the Karakoram.
