Honestly, I read perfect storm and another but I was in jail. Only time I ever really read books.

“The Constitution”


If you are an autodidact and are interested in the Constitution you might want to pick up a Con Law case book. What you get is a curated set of cases that gives you a fairly good understanding of the ebb and flow of Con law over the years. For a laymen the Massey casebook: American Constitutional Law: Powers and Liberties would be one of the better and more approachable ones. You can probably pick up the 3rd or 4th edition on Amazon for under $10.

Most people in this world would benefit tremendously from reading a book or two. Education is one of the greatest gifts there is.

The Last Sunlight by Tom Clancy. Easily his best book IMO.

If you start a Reading Club thread on the book board I'll recommend the short stories

Into Thin Air by John Krakouer. Fantastic book. I blew through it in about 3 days.


ETA: Finished it about 3 months ago.

I don’t visit that board very often, but I read at least one a week. Last one was The Politically incorrect guide to the constitution.

Found LeBron’s handle.

Any idea when you will finish Malcom X’s autobiography?
