Newest reading material

Received my latest book for my enjoyment, and it is even in dead tree format.  I picked up the 10th Anniversary edition of User Friendly, my favorite geek comic strip.  With over 1000 pages of strips, it will be great "light" reading for days and weeks to come.

Latest book "read"

I have been "reading" a book over this holiday weekend (well, actually listed to the audiobook) called One Second After by William R. Forstchen.  It is a story about 3 EMP's being detonated over strategically placed locations in the atmosphere, and the aftermath viewed from one small North Carolina town.  Though my more liberal friends might be turned off by the foreword written by Newt Gingrich, I thought the book was well written and thought provoking.  Scenes from the book reminded me of one of my favorite shows that is no longer on the air "Jericho" and its post-apocolyptic visions. Nicole was listening to parts of it in the van and was enjoying it as well.  Interesting read if you have about $18 floating around (and, if listening to the audio version, 13 1/2 hours of your time).
