 | Misanthropic and Other Big Words!! 5 out of 7 people found this review helpful
As much as Taleb would have us believe that he is a "practicioner" rather than an "academician" he is no man of the people! This book is not written in plain English and has more academic na... read full review |
 | Wow! What a great read... 5 out of 5 people found this review helpful
This is a stunning novel, and the best I've read in 2008. Its a retelling of Hamlet in the American mid west, and while there are enough elements that are familiar with the story, there are all sorts of ne... read full review |

I was intrigued by this book because I wanted to see how an international rock star was able to claim a powerful role in global politics. This book does not disappoint, and uncovers the complexity of Bono as a ... read full review |
 | The King is Back... 3 out of 4 people found this review helpful
Here's what I like about Stephen King. The boy just writes, and he knows how to spin a good yarn. You don't get the feeling that there's a lot of pretense in his novels, but he's more clever... read full review |
 | A Good Story, and Will Ferrell as Well... 3 out of 3 people found this review helpful
I like Will Ferrell and I like good stories, and this movie has both. A very clever script, an understated performance by Ferrell and overall a really great cast make this one of the best movies I have seen in ... read full review |
 | Best road band ever! 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful
What can I say? Seeing U2 live in concert is a near religious experience. Seeing a DVD of them live is the next best thing to being there. This DVD captures a show from their wildly successful Elevation tour. S... read full review |
 | Seems to Capture Belichick Exactly!!! 2 out of 3 people found this review helpful
I'm a huge football fan and was really looking forward to reading this book given Belichick's obvious mastery. However, it reads exactly as Belichick appears: boring, dry, calculating and sometimes bo... read full review |

I've been a Prince fan for a long time, and bought this disc a couple of months ago. At first I gave it a listen, and kind of wrote it off as good, but not great. I recently caught his 3121 tour, which cau... read full review |
 | Great Read!! 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful
I read the Adventures of Kavalier and Clay and thought that that was one of the most unique books I had ever read. The Yiddish Policemen's Union is similar. At once a description of life in a Jewish colony... read full review |

It's been a while since his last album of original material, but this one does not disappoint. I'm not at all a country/western fan, but I think Lyle's great. This album has all of his familiar t... read full review |
