Damn you all! My list of "Books to read" exploded after finding the "Books" sections.

Currently I'm reading "Insurrection" By Thomas M. Reid Which is a Fantasy / D&D Book (#2 in the War of the Spider Queen Series)

And I will usually start one book and slowly get into another book or two, I'm grabbing "We Will Not Go to Tuapse" and also started the first Firefox book.

Saw this thread on KSR's Ministry of the Future, of which I am about 1/3 through.  It's kind of interesting thinking about possible climate vigilantes/terrorists, among some other big ideas, but soooo lefty.  Plus his usual admiration for the Indians and other oppressed peoples and their beautiful culture, but then all the action takes place in cozy Swiss pubs and quiet parks.  And lots of therapy.  There was another good thread I saw recently talking about how the NGO Ministry of the Future has a $60 Billion budget, which is roughly 50% higher than the USMC, but appears to has a leadership group of <10 people and a random plucky Irishwoman chief.

I enjoy not having to worry about SJW plots in his books.  I can just enjoy the story without being on guard for hogwash.

I have been enjoying very much Shelby Foote's The Civil War: A Narrative by audiobook in my truck.  The narrator is excellent and the prose is very engaging, even without any maps.  It has given me a lot of insight into the political side of things, of why certain forces got to each point for the battles.  I know the major battles but not the larger picture.

I recently watched this interview with Shelby Foote on PBS from 1994.  I had no idea he wasn't a historian!  Very interesting man.  Highly recommended.

I have posted before about TJIC's homesteading book, it is getting very close to publication.  It is also huge, approx 1,400 pages of 8x11 in two volumes.

I just posted this again since I thought this was funny.  He's working on the index and references, and this was the entry for bacon:
