June 17, 2006New list of books to readI've decided to be nice to the FBI. I'm going to save them the trouble to bother my local librarian to find out what I intend to check out from the library and write my list here instead. OK, it's a tiny bit selfish as I've discovered that I often forget my list when I get to the library - and if I have it available on the web all I have to do is print it out. This is a list in progress, mind you. I would ask my San Leandro readership to not be mean and check these books out before I get to them. Currently available at the library.
