Running With Scissors

Just recently finished (I think I had read it before) All Creatures Great and Small.
I started All Things Wise and Wonderful, but didn't get very far into it before I had to leave it (was housesitting and reading their books since they didn't have a net connection).

Always have a series of math and options trading books around, as well as programming stuff and a subscription to safari.oreilly.com - but those don't really count as true reading I don't think.

hemmingway - fiesta and the movable feast

I've read Movable Feast and Farewell to Arms by Hemingway. What I walked away from most with it was that I was incredibly bored and didn't particularly care one way or the other for the people involved.

I tried to get into him, but just never really felt it.

[WODIN]

LOL @ Zander Econometrics, not terrible difficult, but dry as hell.

 

[NoDaddyNo]

I like Econ.

At work I'm reading technical specs for a companies equalization process for their hedge fund accounting package.

That is a bit dry to say the least.

Dude WODIN do you ever read for FUN?

I'm reading a book called Rebecca by Orson Scott Card. It's second in a series. I liked Sarah so I figured I'd give this one a try.

I just got through reading a bunch of HP Lovecraft from asite Code posted. They were all free so I said what the heck.

I have Powerlifting: a scientific approach by Dr. Squat which I'm taking a break from because i was reading way too much exercise stuff and needed a break.

 

[KillahBee]

Just finished Moneyball.
Now reading What they don't teach you at Harvard Business school by Mark McCormack, founder of IMG.

Your life does suck right now. If I had taken one more economics class in college I would have minored in it, but I couldn't stand the thought of one more class. I really hated using EViews, I'm surprised they haven't come up with something better in the last 6 years. Good luck.

Dude WODIN do you ever read for FUN?

I use to read novels all the time but anymore I find a lot better humour in what people think than anything made up.

[Bullit]

LOL @ Zander Econometrics, not terrible difficult, but dry as hell.

My Econometrics Prof had the thickest dutch accent I have ever heard, couldnt understand a word he said.

This made econometrics a fuckin bitch of a class.

Had Bullit not posted on this thread, I might have answered the question at hand. Since he did, however, put in his useless running commentary, I don't especially want to be associated with this conversation.
