It’s been a busy month.

I just finished David Horowitz’s autobiography.

Waah.

You’d think that after 8 years of Bush-bashing, President Obama would recognize the need to take as good as he gives. But no; instead, he just comes off sounding petty and immature.

Esoteric Things My Father Taught Me

OK, just one esoteric thing my father taught me:

When you’re looking for something you dropped on the floor, get down and look across the floor rather than just standing there looking down at the floor.

Books

When I was a young man, my favorite authors were Stephen King, Robert Heinlein, and Ray Bradbury; while I’ve always liked history, I read mostly science fiction in those days.

Now, as a middle-aged man, I read mostly non-fiction, especially history; my favorite author currently is David Horowitz—I’ve just started reading his autobiography, Radical Son: A Generational Odyssey.
