And I'm sincerely reading F.A. Hayek's The Road to Serfdom.

D'oh, you're right, it's not an autobiography, but a biography. Just look for "Chesty" at any Barnes and Nobles. It's based on his life from facts and accounts and is much more factual than Marine!(Which actually has a disclaimer in it). Anywhoo, definately check it out, it's great.

Agreed, great stuff to read. My ex-fiancee bought it for me last year.

And since I realized I didn't post what I'm reading, I'm currently wading through The Aeneid by Virgil.

Rereading the Maus series.

Next up: The American Political Tradition

After that: Either reread the Foundation series or Sophie's World.

Thinking not so much, I was going through some withdrawls when I lent them to Triggar.

I hear there's this new fangled thing called a library though, they let you take books and read them and you don't even have to pay for them!
